When talking about superstars who transcended the wrestling business, Andre the Giant is certainly in that bracket. Andre is somebody who is nearly as famous in pop culture circles as he is in the wrestling world. The legendary Frenchman was a one-of-a-kind performer when he burst onto the wrestling scene, particularly revered for his time in the WWWF and WWF. Whenever Andre was in the ring, he evoked a genuine sense of awe from those watching and was something that the public had rarely if ever seen before. During his career, Andre the Giant was a genuine attraction for any wrestling card that he was on, bringing in wrestling fans and non-wrestling fans alike. The sight of this hulking, imposing, dominating figure was money, and his reported 15 year unbeaten streak did wonders for Hulkamania, brother. Andre would sadly be taken from us far too soon, but his status as a WWE icon will always remain.
