13. Davey Boy Smith

No, your eyes aren't deceiving you. That really is the same person in those two pictures. The picture on the left shows Davey Boy Smith in his teens while he was competing in the UK for the World of Sport promotion. As you can see, he's pretty much skin and bones although he does have some muscle tone on his arms. A boney lad, Smith didn't win many matches looking like this.

On the right is Davey Boy Smith as The British Bulldog during his muscular peak. Bulldog packed on the mass in an attempt to become one of the (literally) biggest stars in the business. At his biggest, he weighed about 270lbs. Bulldog's look was one of the reasons he became so popular during the 1990s.

Was Bulldog's size gain natural? What do you think? Bulldog first experiemented with steroids in the early 1980s and Dynamite Kid tells how he injected his cousin with milk when he asked him for steroids as a rib. Bulldog was fired in 1992 because Vince McMahon found out that he and The Ultimate Warrior were experiencing with HGH. Smith died of a heart attack on 18 May 2002. He was 39 years old.
