In a downtime in the WWE in the mid-90’s, Yokozuna was one of the few bright spots. The definition of a monster heel, the 500 plus pound wrestler was the World Champion for nearly a year and despite his large girth was blessed with incredible agility. As part of the legendary Anoi’a family, Yokozuna was also a very talented wrestler who could perform with the best grapplers in the business. He was a posthumous inductee as he succumbed to an early death due to complications from his size.

The world of wrestling has had its share of combatants who looked mean.  Yet we doubt that there was anyone who looked meaner (even if he tried not to) than William Affis; A.K.A. Dick the Bruiser.

As the initial televised era of wrestling was winding down, one of its stars proved to be a big draw without ever having to chase for a championship.  His unique look and size were enough to get him “over”.  Tipping the scales at over 600 pounds, Haystacks Calhoun was a mammoth of a man who was used as a special attraction much the way Andre the Giant would be used years later.
