Wrestler's real life height and weight

[normcoleman]

I read somewhere that Hogan is actually 6'4" and Shawn Michaels and Steve Austin are 5'11".

Let's see what we can come up with.

[repomanfan]

You're right Hogan is actually about 6'4 /6'5. In his prime he probably weighed about 275-300. Hogan was a beast.

Austin is not 5'11. He is actually over 6 feet tall. Michael's on the other hand is probably just under 6.

Andre was a shade under 7; not the 7 and half that was proclaimed by everyone else in wrestling.

[JoDaNa1281]

Cena is 6'0", Angle is 5'10", Taker & Kane are both around 6'7" to 6'9"

[snookimaniac]

Andre was 9'4" and weighed 1200lbs

At least according to Hogan

[jagilki]

In real life Taz is only 3 feet tall.

[Pervy Stone Cold]

Goldust is a legit 6'5"/ 6'6" isn't he?

Angle was billed 6'5 on a trading card once. Seriously.

Rey is around 5'2 and 130lbs tops.

Andre's was never right but then Andre at the beginning of his career to the end did lose a couple of inches so people just stuck with 7ft 4.

[Cranjis McBasketball]

It's all clever camera work, Hornswoggle is actually 6'9".

[celticjobber]

I've heard Chris Jericho is actually 5' 8" but wears lifts in his boots to make him seem taller.

Rey is definitely not 130, Scott Steiner would have to say something about that.

So Zbyszko wasn't lying.

Kane has always had lifts in his boots for whatever reason.

Andre the Giant's height has long been a controversial issue, as it seemed to vary markedly over the course of his career, but he was almost always billed as being 7'4" or 7'5".

In reality, during his prime in the 1970's Andre was about 7'0" tall. I say that because when he came to the Memphis promotion during that time he was matched up with Plowboy Frazier who was about 6'10", and Andre was clearly taller. (my father was a jobber in the promotion at the time and witnessed this)

Further, Andre let his hair grow in the '70's, which stood straight up and gave him the appearance of being considerably taller. The top of his hair at the time probably was 7'4"-7'5". Unfortunately, as Andre aged, his physical ailments caught up with him and he actually lost stature thru several knee, back and hip operations. Finally by the late 1980's, it was hard for him to stand upright, making him seem even shorter.

There's zero percent chance Rey Mysterio only weighs 130 lbs.

The Hulkster is about the same height as Troy Aikman in the Rent-A-Center commercials so that would put him at about 6'4" or 6'5"

He's huge, not height wise but he is extremely thick. I'd say more 160 or up.

[Deleted]

Rey used to be about 140 or in the mid 90's I would say he's about 170 or so currently.

He looks slightly shorter than Aikman to me. Troy was listed as 6'4", so assuming that's correct and he hasn't shrunk at his old age, I'd say Hogan is no more than 6'3" currently.
