Is there a place for BIG men in wrestling?

There should be.

If you look at how Heyman worked his promotion, its clear that a well placed big man or two can have a positive impact. Most of the indy workers are smallish, so a guy even like 6'5+ (ala Mike Awesome) will look like a monster. The key is booking. You have to book the big guy to work and sell like a big guy. He can dominate through the roster for a time, and then eventually you get some super babyface to climb the mountain and beat him against all odds. Its a simple concept, that can be very effective if done with the right guys and done in the right way.
