I just find it funny that Abyss is a monster but the James gang and Dudleyz towered over him in that match.

I'd base it on the fact that announcers or promotions put the guy over as a big/tall wrestler. If they are in the 7ft region or way over 350lbs then I would consider them big. Hogan probably doesn't make it in this kind of list as his character was one that had to overcome the odds against the supposed bigger men, whoever they may be. Yeah, I'm not sure I'm buying that. By that rationale, wouldn't Undertaker not be eligible? He had to fend off threats from King Kong Bundy and Giant Gonzalez. That's why according to the choices, he just edges out Kane, IMO. For some reason I don't see Taker as a "big man". Go fig

I vote Taker. But everyone on that list rocks. They can all do something bad ass.

THA UNDAHTAKAH! Period. The man is in his 40s. He can do that tope thingie. And one year ago, he had the single greatest match(With Angle) in the past five+ years.

I think we'd separate Big (Fit) Men and Fat Big Men.
Undertaker and Yokozuna's wrestling style is very different, so we can't really compare them.
Taker wins it in the Big Fit Men, with Kane 2nd.

I say Taker, because he has adjusted his style very nicely as he has aged in order to provide good stuff still. Early on he was doing some unimaginable things for someone his size (just look at his WCW finisher), and he has adjusted to a new style as he aged. Vader, BBB, and all the rest, despite how good they were, tapered off with age while Taker adjusted and stayed very good.

Honestly, when I think of someone "big", he should be at least billed 280+ or higher in weight. Undertaker fits the big man description.

Seriously where is Big Show on this list? I felt that Andre was better than Big Show as the other guys on the list do as well. Except for a couple of Runs I felt that Show was lazy and boring. The others in my opinion had a bigger impact, sure Show was great but not nearly near the best thats why I put other on the list. Sorry but Andre was boring. I said it before and saying it again Andre was no better in the ring than Khali is.

I guess KEVIN NASH, PSYCO SID, AND BIG SHOW are not big men.

These threads are always funny. Andre and Vader not in the lead...learn your wrestling people. Wrestling existed before 1992 and takes place in other countries besides America.
Andre is the Hogan of big men and shouldn't even be on the list. He's in a class by himself.

Vader, but I was a huge fan of everyone on the list except Yokozuna (And I did enjoy his work just not to the degree of everyone else's listed)
