Top 10 heaviest WWE superstars of all time

Most of the time, WWE wrestlers are really big and intimidating men. However, sometimes that line is crossed when some wrestlers weigh over 400 lbs. While high-flying athletes like AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan are known for their agility and quickness, some wrestlers like Yokozuna and The Big Show are pretty famous because of their size.

These wrestlers can use their size to dominate and intimidate their opponents. And most of the time, it works. With that said, let’s look at the top 10 heaviest WWE superstars of all time.

Heaviest WWE Superstars of All Time

10. Gorilla Monsoon- 440 lbs

Robert James, better known as Gorilla Monsoon was famous as a commentator in the 80s. However, Gorilla Monsoon was a pretty popular heel in the 60s and 70s, where he famously feuded with Bruno Sammartino. He was also an authority figure in the Attitude Era. His heaviest weight was recorded at 440 pounds.

9. The Big Show- 441 lbs

Although The Big Show’s heaviest weight had been recorded at 537 pounds, he has recently lost a ton of weight and slimmed down to a whopping 441 pounds. This was a tricky spot to place The Big Show at, but considering that majority of his fans remember him at 441 pounds, it seems only fair to include his current weight. Early in his career however, the 537 pound monster tore through a bunch of competition and was regarded as a force of nature.

8. Vader- 450 lbs

Vader was a real powerhouse of a wrestler, often showing scary agility despite his size. His heaviest weight was recorded at 450 pounds in WWE. As the years passed, his health got worse. In 2018, he tried to slim down, but it was too late for him and he sadly passed away. Vader will always be one of the crowd’s favourites to never win a world title.

7. One Man Gang- 450 lbs

George Gray, also known as One Man Gang, is another 450 pounder on the list. He debuted in WWE as Akeem, who wanted to channel his African roots. However, at his prime, One Man Gang was a monster heel who loved to manhandle babyfaces of a company.

6. Uncle Elmer- 450 lbs

Here we see another 450 pound WWE wrestler. Due to his weight, Uncle Elmer struggled to move about in the ring. He is remembered in WWE history only for the memorable moment of his on-screen marriage.

5. King Kong Bundy- 458 lbs
