There was nothing supernatural about Nathan Jones, but there were plenty of allusions to a lengthy stretch in a high-security Australian prison (which is pretty scary, to be fair). He also stood somewhere in the region of seven foot, and although his WWE career is something of a footnote these days, there was a (brief) time when the company pushed him as a giant, face monster.

They even went as far as to make him Undertaker's protege in early 2003, during which time Big Evil was feuding with A-Train and Big Show. The pair were originally scheduled to team together at WrestleMania XIX - in what would have been the Streak's only non-singles match - but in the end saner heads prevailed.

And by that we mean: WWE cottoned on to the fact that Jones was a bit rubbish.
