There should've been a new 4 horsemen with Cody, Swaggy, Wade, and Drew. 4 amazing specimen, even better than the original.
Not better than them though. Look at how good Mongo looks

Swagger is a good Hoss
So I'm watching Unforgiven 1998 taking place in Greensboro, NC during my lunch break when suddenly there is a title match. The NWA tag team title match. Between the Midnight Express and the Rock and Roll Express. Has my time machine started malfunctioning?
It's actually a halfway decent match. The only other good thing to happen so far from the NWOA invasion has been Dan Severn and his amazing suit.

Nah but that was my favourite. Simply because of Dean.
Charlotte rocks Paige's look better than Paige. And I say this as someone who likes Paige.

That crowd was weak as fuck man. They didn't even get up for that NWA match.
Finn being called up is the new Cena is turning heel meme. Ill believe it when I see it.
If Nakamura loses to Reigns, we truly are in the darkest of days.

They recently broke up an entire faction of guys who were all bigger than Reigns, they were called the League of Nations.
Fuck it, I'll just list people who are bigger/stronger than Reigns:
Del Rio
Crews
Corbin
Cassady
Big E
Big Show
Strowman
Wyatt
Rowan
Lesnar
Bubba
D-Von
Cesaro
Fandango
Goldust
Swagger
Cena
Kane
Owens
Konnor
Gallows
Harper
Henry
Orton
Rusev
Sheamus
O'Neil
HHH
Taker
Ryder
That's 30. That leaves 28 who are the same/smaller. He's literally middle of the pack.

Imagine telling this thread (even just yourself back then if you want) 4 years ago a new face would be pushed to the top and both HHH and Cena would be completely cheered over him

In that reality punk and Bryan never left
Rollins is probably stronger.
I would think it was possible that they really fucked up Ryback.

Nah it reminds me more of when every fucking week people kept asking when Ambrose was going to debut.

Fuck WWE and their bias selections to be champ. I'm hoping for another Rey Mysterio type of person to be Heavyweight champ again
At least Swagger won a world title.

I wouldn't go that far. If Ambrose spent 6 months hyping his debut or a group the way Finn has with it still not happening anytime soon, there wouldn't still be (bewilderingly so) Ambrose fans here.
Yeeeaaah!
How does the stream work, by the way? Maybe I can rock it on my phone at work. I mean, I'm sure I could do it on my Mac, too, but watching a Pro Wrestling Avatar Battle Royal at work is where I draw the line -- even I would be ashamed of that.

Draygoon could take out Roman. I know it.
Btw Seth will be on Sportscenter tomorrow.
My avatar isn't changing tonight, though.
It'd all be a work, daddeh!

No sold on that pic. But the replay he sure did

Either him or Brock

Yeah, possibly. And Primo and Epico are not long for this universe, I'd wager, which would push Reigns further left. I'm also counting Tyson Kidd even though he may never come back.

According to interviews , Kane is legit strong

In terms of bodyweight ratio, absolutely. Otherwise it's Mark Henry.

WWE needs to bring back the bench press challenge.
Vince is in the back telling some website intern what each guy can deadlift.
"Hunter can deadlift the most!!! I've seen him deadlift 1,200 lbs!!!"
Then when somebody tells him the world record is 1,155 Vince fires the non-paid intern and then has Joey Styles take his place.
Mark Henry is still on the roster technically.

90s/early00s Kane was YUGE. A big guy, a really big guy.
See, you get it.

Anything that has youtube should work
Just found this
http://www.wwe.com/inside/wwe-superstars-max-bench-press
Mind you with these are workers so they could be working the numbers or using work plates
Ryback: "560 and 580, 550 is my official best"
TITUS O'NEIL: 545
CESARO: "Four hundred five pounds, but who cares how much you bench?!"
ROMAN REIGNS: 445 lbs
Big E: 575lbs
Cena: 465 lbs
KANE: 525 with no [bench] shirt, no wraps, nothing.
BRODUS CLAY: 525 lbs
BIG SHOW: Five hundred pounds for 12 reps.
JACK SWAGGER: Three hundred fifteen pounds for 16 reps. So that comes out to about 457 for a max.
Mark Henry: Benched 500 as a 20 year old and I believe some have said he has benched over 700 easily.
Brock did 225 lb with 30 reps at the NFL combine.

I really thought he was going to retire/HOF this year in Texas. It's coming soon. But if Vince really likes someone he'll let them hang along until they want to quit and Henry is basically on a whenever he feels like/WWE is in Texas schedule.

Big E is definitely the strongest guy who is on every Monday. He probably has a good 60 or 70 lbs on Cesaro, though, despite Cesaro being half a foot taller.
But if you could take each wrestler's deadlift max and divide it by their weight, I'm pretty sure Ceasro would have the highest number.
