10. Ryback Shell Shocks Primo And Epico At The Same Time

 

Now, Primo and Epico aren’t the heaviest or biggest wrestlers we’ve ever seen. Both standing at only 5′ 10″, they don’t seem too big. But together they are a combined weight of 432 pounds! Ryback picked up the two performers with ease, and whether you like him or not, you can’t deny how strong he is.

During an episode of ECW, Bigelow showed his strength by throwing Spike Dudley outside the ring. Spike traveled so far, he cleared the space between the ring and the fans, soared over the barricade, and landed a few rows back. The two men performed this stunt twice, one of which ended in Spike Dudley crowd surfing through the ECW arena!

The Great Khali weighs 350 pounds so when John Cena picked up the 7-foot Khali, who was standing on top of a crane, the crowd went crazy. Khali acted like dead weight, which makes this feat of strength even more impressive. Cena dumped Khali off his shoulders to a thunderous ovation from the audience.

As you saw above, The Great Khali is one of the tallest superstars in WWE history. When Cesaro was told that he had to defend his US title against Khali, he knew he needed to step up his game. Cesaro usually does the Swing to smaller superstars, so doing it to Khali was a shock. Cesaro had the strength after spinning Khali to pick him up and slam him down for the Neutralizer. Cesaro has shown the WWE Universe that he is pound-for-pound one of the strongest superstars in WWE history.

At Wrestlemania 3, Hulk Hogan started the Hulkamania phenomenon and captured the WWE World Title. In order to do so, Hogan not only ended Andre the Giant’s 15-year undefeated streak, but picked up the 7′ 4″, 520 pound man and slammed him on the ring. This became known as WWE’s first big feat of Strength and is one of the most iconic moments in professional wrestling history.

3. Brock Lesnar Superplex/Lesnar F-5

Brock Lesnar has made a career out of being able to do any move to anybody. On an episode of “Smackdown!” Lesnar picked up the 450 pound Big Show from the top rope and Superpllexed him onto the ring. The ring was unable to hold the weight of the two men and exploded. Lesnar has also hit his finishing move, the “F-5”, on the likes of Rikishi, Big Show, Mark Henry, and more.

Mark Henry was the winner of the World’s Strongest Man Contest. Henry, an Olympic athlete, who won Gold, Silver and Bronze medals, currently holds the world record for Squat, Dead-lift, and Total Weight. He’s a two-time US national power lifting champion, three-time US weightlifting champion, one-time World Champion in squat and dead-lift, and has won other titles in power lifting, strongman, and weight lifting.

The former WWE World Champion proved to us in 2013 that he was still relevant, pulling two full-size 18 wheeler trucks. This feat of strength was not “faked” by the WWE. The Guinness Book of World Records recognized this as a legitimate world record. He pulled both the trucks at the same time, for a distance of 20 feet.

Each truck weighed approximately 55,000 pounds!!! Nobody can match this man’s strength!
