I feel like this is a match that should be suggested to Owens on Twitter. With every suggestion purposely misspelled, so he can enjoy blocking everyone.

Bustronaut Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 How long has Magnum been able to walk? Am I misremembering his injury? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Sweetser Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Magnum was already on a cane shortly after the initial injury, wasn't he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the gimmick change, Hunico was killing it on the C-shows. I always thought he had great suplexes, certainly compared the high flying he has to do as Sin Cara, which has never played to his strengths. He was much better at bullying Justin Gabriel around. Spoiler *I am aware that being good at beating up Justin Gabriel doesn't keep you in gainful employment as long.

Yeah he appeared on quite a few of the early 90s WCW PPVs and was walking with a cane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Never would have guessed that Kofi was stronger than a guy built like Eli Drake. I guess explosivity goes a long way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I think a lot of the ex high level high school and any college football played would do well there. If your playing at the college level you need a big bench, squat, deadlift, and probably power clean. Any way, I think Hunico and Kofi sized guys are the most impressive there.

Still has quite a few health issues though. Whenever people talk about guys who ought to be in the HOF, he never gets mentioned. I think he should get in at some point.

You also have to remember that "small" guys in WWE are actually pretty big dudes to the average person. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(BP) Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 One of the things that always put the size thing in perspective was HBK talking about being the biggest guy on his high school football team, and then a few months later being the little guy when he broke into wrestling. I also just found out recently that Waltman is like 6 ft tall, which blew my mind considering how he was mostly booked. He's like a head taller than Bryan.

RIPPA Posted May 17, 2016 Author Share Posted May 17, 2016 I remember Apollo Crews on the Breaking Ground show - like his sister showed up and he was saying something like "Yeah - remember how I was the biggest guy in Japan? Now I am the smallest guy in the room." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I was standing next to the Bucks and Adam cole at the ROH show this weekend. I'm 6'2" and I was at least 6" taller than them. Then Big Mike Elgin walked by, and he was huge, but still like 6" shorter than me. I was actually surprised by how small all those guys are. Apparently Cole is really sought after by WWE, but he is tiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odessasteps Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I remember an Apter mag where they were talking about the Rockets and "how small" they were and someone said, if you bumped into one of those "small guys" in a bar, you'd apologize ando move along before any trouble started.

Technico Support Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 The 80s were such a different time, man. It's all relative and we all bought into Vince's size queen bullshit. Watching old Manias today, it's glaring how huge the guys considered "small" back then were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
