You know this is what Wrestling is missing these days. We need a Big Heel say he weights 400-500 He pays any guy to slam him only to fail you slowly build it up until a wrestler does it and then they feud

There aren't a ton of guys that big nowadays, plus a lot of the novelty is lost when you have guys like Cesaro who can slam the likes of Great Khali. It could probably be done, but it'd be on the local level or something.
I feel like the Masterlock Challenge from Chris Masters was a great way of doing that sort of thing in a more modern setting. You still have the physical challenge and the asshole heel getting heat with it and getting the humble full nelson over as this world ender.

Guess True Been watching a lot of the Studd stuff from like 84-85. Matches might not be that good but it's a fun angle

Also the Masters stuff was good too. Might be on the network but The Slaughter Cobra Clutch Challenge was good too they even did it in the WWF. Lead to the fun Patterson Feud

Nowadays the reaction would be "...so?". Todays kids have seen Cena lift two men on his shoulders (one of them being Big Show), and a guy flipping an ambulance over.

I’d be cool with a different dynamic instead of “can he lift him for the slam!?” and more of both guys having a regular match but doing everything that they can to avoid the body slam. One could do that match with any move really.
