Over Rated or Under Rated - Bam Bam Bigelow

The only other Big Guy that could compare may only be The Big Bossman. Maybe I am wrong or just not thinking of anyone else. He was talented, but accomplished less than Bam Bam.

I'd put Vader ahead of both of them in terms of "The Greatest Big Man." Vader could pull off moonsaults and top rope moves better than some 250 pound guys I saw. But that notwithstanding, Bigelow was very under rated, thanks to two factors.

1. He spent a lot of his good years and his championship years in ECW in front of their niche market. No offense to ECW People, I loved the product too, but it didn't help Scott's Career one ioda.

2. The way it ended. Divorces, disappearances, arrests, and finally drug induced death. He was a shell of his former self at the end, and it was a tragic ending to a terrific career that never was.

One fun fact about Bigelow. He wrestled in High School for Neptune High, and was a bronze medal winner as a heavyweight in the NJ State Wrestling tournament in 1979. One of his three losses - to Bruce Baumgartner, 4 time Olympic Gold Medal Winner from Manchester, NJ.

Irish, Maybe the next could be King Kong Bundy. Thoughts?

Perhaps. I will absolutely take requests, and if not next week, then definately soon.
