Wow, forgot that. As much as I loved that show and as big of a Vader fan I was, I remembered that Bam Bam (RIP) had burns over 40% of his body for going into a burning building to save 3 children. Both big men were strong, agile and have hearts of gold, but Bam Bam pulls it out for me.

I've noticed that IRL, the bigger guys of wrestling tend to be a lot nicer. When I met Big Show years back, he was really awesome and nice, where as certain others, Orton, JBL, Cena, were complete douches IRL. Kind of an odd little observation I guess.

As badass as Vader was, I've never seen being super stiff as a positive quality. Bam Bam always seemed more in control but still was awesome. So BBB for me.

Went with Bam Bam to make it a tie, mainly because I saw more of Bam Bam than Vader as didn't watch that much WCW, and Bam Bam got the best match possible from LT

BAM! BAM!!!

He was one of my favorite wrestlers. Happy that I just tied things up at 20-20 with my vote.

I think that Bam Bam was one of the more memorable and recognizable wrestlers. He just may be the definitive "big man", he wasn't one of those really big (fat) men, and his agility was always impressive for his size.

Nothing against Bam Bam, but it's fucking Vader. Vader was a monster, and easily one of the most intimidating wrestlers ever.

Bam Bam. Seen more of his matches and his matches with Taz in ECW was amazing. As well as being in the old NES/SNES wrestling games with his cartwheel/spin wheel move.

This was harder than thought, but I am going with the Beast from the East BBB. The dude tattooed his head. That was the tie breaker for me.

I went with Bam Bam, because my uncle kinda looked like him. Plus, I never watched WWF/WCW when Vader was around, but I saw some early WWF stuff with Bam Bam, plus ECW.

IrishBulldozer

11-07-2009, 02:13 PM

While Vader was a fucking beast in the ring, I have always preferred the agility & look of Bam Bam. Dude could cartwheel & moonsault better that anyone else his size.

Vader has been a more "high profile" performer but I still think that if BamBam was given the shot at main eventing in the WWE, he could have had a go for the title.

Phenomenal 1

11-08-2009, 02:42 PM

I went with Vader all the way on this....Vader was the top heel in WCW in the 90's for quite a few years after Flair left the promotion and the fued that he had with Sting over the WCW Title was actually able to keep my interest better than anything WWF could throw at me with Hogan at the time. It was more believable and more realistic of Vader manhandling and destroying the little kid's hero and when Sting would come back it would be awesome. Hogan just reminded me of a comic book superhero who would never go down. That gets boring over time.

Bam Bam god rest his soul was a great wrestler, had great matches all through his career and could be chalked up as one of those guys who had world title potential but just never made it to the big dance.

Vader was a World Champion but Bigelow was not.

Bam Bam was more of always the solid midcard scene worker except for his time in ECW and his matches with Shane Douglas and Taz were inspirational and memorable. Although he did win the ECW Championship, ECW was just not on the main par of the world title scene in my opinion as WCW and WWF were at the time.

My nod goes to Vader but Bam Bam gets a soft vote in my heart cause the man really never had a bad match....Vader was just more of a bad ass heel and worker.

Nicky Fives

Both great big men..... 2 of the greatest agile big men of all-time.....a very tough decision.... but I have to go with Vader, because he entertained me more and achieved greater success.....

IrishBulldozer

11-08-2009, 06:47 PM

I voted simply on preference & style. If I was voting which one had the better career than it would be Vader. But, for me, I prefer BamBam simply because he was so agile, his flaming skull tattoos & how he made the most of what was given to him in his career. If he was booked as strong as Vader was he could have, nay, should have been champion in a major federation.
