I'd say Goldberg but Kane was a bad MFer. I bet those violent throat grabs hurt even if it was staged. Goldberg's Spears had to hurt too. I didn't watch much of Lesnar.

Gotta go with Lesnar and Goldberg. Kane was strong but was slow.

Kane was also in the business a lot longer than those 2 guys

If were talking Kayfabe only:

90's Goldberg
00's Cena
10's Lesnar

Several years ago, I was in line at the Delta counter at BTR early one Monday morning. I saw a stunning 6 foot blonde a few folks ahead of me. She was next to a pretty big surfer looking dude. I didn't want to stare because the were talking to several other big dudes. It dawned on me that the blonde was Stacey Kiebler and the surfer was Test.

I looked more at the other guys in line, and started to pick out a bunch of other mid-card wrestlers and jobbers, like D-Lo Brown, Brooklyn Brawler, and a few other scrubs. It was the day after a card in BR.

Anyhow, I proceed to security, and see the biggest SOB I ever saw in real life right in front of me. Kane. He opened his backpack and takes out a X Box to pul on the belt. The TSA guy starts making small talk about the XBox with Kane - he didn't know who he's was. Kane smiles and responds. He seemed really shy and kind of awkward, but appeared genuinely nice. It is like 5 in the morning, and probably the morning aft a match. I am sure he wasn't in the mood to chat,but was friendly.

So, all these guys were on my Delta flight. Kane, Kiebler and Test were in first class. The jobbers were in coach. I sat right behind D-Lo Brown.

In summary, Kane is a pretty intimidating specimen in person. The size of a small bull.

A few year's back I was at the Gold's Gym in Bee Caves, South Austin. Noticed a big tatted up dude wearing a bandana on the flat bench. I don't get wrapped up in other folks shite in the gym so kept on with my workout. Saw him later on military pressing 225 in the squat rack later and noticed how tall he was.

Was in the locker room about to walk out when I heard the toilet flush, and here comes the Undertaker, stands right next to me washing his hands. Legit 7 footer. Wearing tank top, Jordon shorts and shoes. I said "Big Fan!" He said, "Thanks" and I walked out.

Watched him drive off in a Jaguar, seat way back, looking out the rear windows. I believe he lives in Dripping Springs or somewhere in South Austin.

My CSB for the day.... I'd vote Goldberg as the badass in this thread though.

Taker isn't legit 7 foot. Heck, he's not even billed at 7 ft. I've met him multiple times, super-cool guy, but he's only about 6'7".

Strongest wrestlers I've seen were Ken Patera, Ted Arcidi, Jeep Swenson, Road Warrior Animal, Dr. Death, Bill Kazmaier. Brock, Goldberg, and this new kid Strowman would all be up there

Good list. I'd also add Doug Furnas.

He was a crap wrestler, but a phenomenal powerlifter. He hit 2400 lb totals in competition several times, while only weighing about 270. 986 lb squat, 600 lb bench, 826 lb deadlift are his bests. Those are powerlifting numbers, not kayfabe. That's just ridiculous for 270.

Also add the Warlord-- another freak.

I remember Hawk's promo where he basically threatened to rape Ric Flair.

He lives in Bee Cave, right near where you saw him.

He's a customer of a place where my wife used to work.

She said he's a really nice, calm, soft spoken guy. Huge, but very mild mannered.

It's pretty cool to know that someone that famous is actually a decent guy and not a weirdo or a dick like it seems is often the case.
