Right up there with the best big men in the business such as Taker and Bam Bam. I couldn't stand his mullet while he was in ECW but after he cut it I kind of missed it, lol
Mike Awesome was legit at about 6'4 and weight between 260 and 300 pounds. He moved around much better than any guy that size. And was very inovative with the powerbomb attack.
agreed totally. any guy thats around 6'5 and 275 that moves the way he did was insane. and he had more moves than half the wwe combined right now. is the impressive for awesome or embarressing for the wwe losers?
@Gamebox27 undertaker can suck on my balls. and i love taker! but Awesome was in a whole different league! E C FUCKIN W! was taker ever THERE? thats where you prove yourself. WCW is where the big boys play with each other and the WWF/E is just plain bad.
So the best American fed is some defunct league (if you don't count WWE's joke of a brand, which I don't) that hardly anyone outside of the Northeast saw in its heyday? I saw it a few times on Fox Sports at like 2 in the morning, but most of my exposure to their wrestlers was through WWE and WCW when they moved to bigger paychecks and more exposure - you know, the real big leagues, not an indy promotion on steroids that was "special" because of the hardcore smark-friendly gimmick..
Roid rage is a myth made up by the media. increased testosterone leads to increased confidence. So cockyness can be seen as arrogance as well as rage when a man doesnt back down.
top 3 for big men in wrestleing ever without a doubt. Also the best powerbomb ever i mean come on the awesomebomb fuckin destroyed people hes the man R.I.P.
I agree, Mike Awesome could move almost like the cruserweights. I personally think IMO that he moved faster than The Undertaker or Kane, Mike was a kick ass wrestler and will be missed!

Better than Undertaker? I don't see any moves in this video that Taker hasn't done something similar to, and he's about 6-8 or 6-9 and weighs 300+

But he deffinitly stood in the same legue as Taker.

Make that WWF, since "WWE" didn't exist back then and never should have existed afterwards.
