Big Show level passable!? Show is not bad in the ring at all. Not when he has pretty much the exact same match every night, maybe.

I don't see the dollar signs at all. She's a tall woman. Yay? Obviously people paid to see Andre, but Andre, she ain't. She's not particularly attractive, sucks in the ring, and apparently has a bad attitude. Literally the only selling point is that she's almost 7 feet tall. This is generally my feeling on all freak show characters though. Well Chyna is like 5'10 and 180 according to Wikipedia and look at how much money she made because she was bigger than all the Diva's and was seen as someone who could stand up to the men. This chick is almost a foot taller and has 60 pounds on Chyna. She could be the biggest monster women's heel (Or babyface) ever and is taller than a lot of male wrestlers out there. As I said in a previous post, that's the problem. It's hard enough to make it believable for Big Show or Andre, or even Kane and Undertaker to lose, but at least male wrestlers are close enough in size and physical stature to warrant them losing. With a women of her size, it's almost impossible. She's about a foot and a half and twice the size of Mickie and Gail Kim, and even wrestlers like Tara and Tesschmacher, not exactly the daintiest women, would look minuscule in the ring with her. Beth Phoenix and Chyna are not WNBA size women, but because of their size, strength and physique, they were almost giantess in the ring. Isis, actually would be. I don't see how you could ever book her to lose, unless it's some type of no-DQ match.

I don't see how you could ever book her to lose, unless it's some type of no-DQ match. You could do the shock win also. Maybe one of your girls has a devastating finisher that can put the giant down. I agree that it would be very tough for her to lose though. You could never have someone beat her other than a shock victory.

Make her Brooke Hogan's bodyguard. Use her in the same role that ECW used 911 and there is your license to print money right there, as long as she had a impactful theme and a cool t-shirt she could come out and squash the heels every now and then she'd be over like rover anyway.

Bingo. Would probably need a name change also but that's a great way to use her and to cover her weakness'

I agree that she's terrible but the matches I've seen her in she's paired against an opponent who doesn't mesh with her well and doesn't know how to lead a match. If you put her in the ring with someone a little more competent I think she could pull average in the ring. Not to mention she's not the type who should really be having "matches" anyway, special attractions should be used as such.

How isn't she big time yet? Surely the most marketable woman in all of wrestling right? I mean she's a 6'9 woman that screams WWE or TNA to me. Is she still in the business? Screams "money" to me... As others have said, WWE are wary of people who have a background doing borderline porn photoshoots and TNA recently had to settle a lawsuit from a former worker who suffered a career ending injury at the hands of a poorly trained clod and I doubt they're looking for a rerun of that.

Sure, you're not gonna mesh with everyone, but you can still try to put on a decent match. I mean, I'm sure people like Flair and Savage didn't mesh with people, but it didn't stop them from putting on great matches (Not that I'm comparing her to them.)From what I've seen, she's just not very good, like, at all. Even if she was meshing with someone, I don't see it being much better.

Her wrestling ability and appeal are about the same as of Giant Gonzales. It may be cool for a one time thing but everything after that is a joke.

I'm sorry but it does exist, think of it this way if Ric Flair was in the ring with a average wrestler he had a good match and if he is in with a good wrestler he had a great match and so on and so forth. I'm saying while she's bad she was also working against people who, while not as bad as her, weren't very good, so as a result they had a terrible match with no redeeming qualities. There was nothing redeeming about her matches and her opponent was at fault just as much as her in the videos, a good preformer can put on a good show and be entertaining with a bad opponent.

If you keep having bad matches against a variety of people, at some point you got to blame yourself.

Even if someone could pull an average match out of her, who would want to watch an average match?

I dunno how else to say this, but here goes. I saw the pics and they weren't bad; I've seen her matches and they aren't good.
She may have an upside (and the dollar signs along with it), but I doubt it's in wrestling. If anything, it's in the fetish area.
