Fattest wrestler of all time?
Who was the fattest wrestler of all time?
Was it Haystacks Calhoun, or was there anyone fatter than him? Was Yoko fatter than Haystacks? |

Big Daddy was well fat but not as fat as Giant Haystacks.

Yokozuna at his peak was apparently bigger than Giant Haystacks at his peak.

I think I remember Yokozuna being advertised around 800 lbs at his heaviest. Can't translate that to stone for you Brits, but that's pretty fucking fat. Dunno if it was true or not, though.

The difference in Yoko and Haystacks was about 7 inches. And they were similar weights.

Wait, WHAAT?! Then how did he get the Champions name of Yokozuna?
Next thing I know you will try to tell me that The Goon never played in the NHL. |

I also heard that Duke Droese was an avid recycler, so I don't know what to think anymore.

In the 1950s, Happy Humphery weighed in regularly at 800 but at one point weighed around 900 lbs. I've said it before, out of curiousity I would want to see him wrestle his 600 lb arch nemesis Haystacks Calhoun

That sounds disgusting and boring. If Big Show and Mark Henry have to work to be "pretty decent", that would be downright excruciating.

This almost a thread asking which one had the biggest floppiest titties? That would probably be a tie between Big Daddy V and Abdullah the Butcher.

It's probably Haystacks Calhoun with Yokozuna (though I'm a big fan of his), Mabel/Viscera/Big Daddy V, Mark Henry, Vader (once again I'm a big fan of his), Earthquake, Tugboat/Typhoon, Bastion Booger, and Brodus Clay following. You had people like Rikishi and the Samoans, but they could actually move as could Vader and Yoko was good as well during his earlier runs, but of course by 1996 he was just too big to really do anything, doesn't mean I wasn't still a fan.

I want to see it more for the "spectacle" than for the wrestling. Of course its going to be horibily slow, hell I don't think even Macho Man Randy Savage could carry an 800 pound man in a match (no pun intended) and he made Kevin Nash look passable in late WCW.

I would be terrified to work with those McGuire guys. How do they even get in the ring?

According to Wikipedia, that Cheex guy broke the ring right before the very first broadcast in a dark match. So they had to shuffle the schedule around and put a bunch of non-wrestling segments first while they desperately tried to fix the ring as fast as they could.
