3. Andre the Giant – 7’4”
The most famous giant in the history of professional wrestling, (with the exception of the world’s tallest man ever, Robert Wadlow) and perhaps the world, Andre the Giant is the professional wrestling giant all big men are compared with. Some of the men in this list came along too early, before wrestling was established in the U.S., while others arrived after the territory system died. Andre the Giant was in the right place at the right time when Vince McMahon Sr. noticed him and put him on a 365-day travel schedule. He was more agile than the end of his WWE showed. YouTube has a lot of his Japan work, which shows he could actually perform technical wrestling moves.
