I think its time to downgrade Kane to 6'7 , peak closer to 6'8
Nash to 6'8,5 , theres no way nash is 7cm taller than taker today.
And Sid's peak height closer to 6'7 there was never a full inch difference between taker and sid
Taker today about 199- max 200cm

Kane's old boots made him edge out UT slightly and come to around 2 inches shorter than a peak Big Show.
There was 3 inches between them and it looked so especially when Big Show stood straight
Phenom! said on 13/Aug/16
@James B I think Kane was around 330 lbs by 2002 and probably a little under 320 in 1999, after injury in 2002 he was probably 310, after losing so much mass. Big show was a solid 500lbs, and got even heavier around 2006.

You can't say what's true in reality if you were never there... Like I've said before, I have 2 co workers who one claims 6 foot 6 and a half on the dot. The other is an older man that claims 6 foot 7 yet he ducks to go under doorways... The 6'6+ guy thinks he's ever taller than that but he still says nope I'm 6 foot 7! He's crazy anyways but we all think he is taller than 6'7. What I'm trying to say here is I know for a fact I know the difference and I believe I have the best guess for kanes height. If everyone would like to see a photo of the 2 standing together, just ask!
James B said on 5/Aug/16
Guys what would you guess for big show/Kane weight when they both wrestled each other in 1999-2002?
James B said on 5/Aug/16
In reality there is only 1 inch between Kane and Corbin
Canson said on 3/Aug/16
@Dewie: if Taker had better posture maybe he's taller

James B Kane looks much bigger than Corbin. He's hunching forward most of the time too I knew Kane was bigger than people thought. He's also in regular boots as you can see. No lifts. Good find!

Those boots haven't been worn by him since 2000, since then his foorwear has been similar to Bigshow's
James B said on 27/Jul/16
I think Braun strowman is 6'7.5 because 6'8 Cass was only 1 inch taller with boot advantage.
WWE I think make Cass wear quite thick wrestling boots to make the 7ft idea seem more believable.

Caden said on 20/Jul/16
Albert is a 6'5 1/2 peak. Today around 6'5. Test was just under 6'5.
Taker - 6'7.25 peak
Kane - 6'8 Peak, Today - 6'7.5
Nash - 6'8.5 peak - Today 6'8.
(I always thought that Kane had to have been severely close to Nash's height as Vince probably wouldn't have wanted a smaller Fake Diesel to portray the character after the original left),
And for people who say that Taker is taller than Kane, keep in mind, in Kane's Yankem days, Jacobs was always taller than Taker in staredowns).
Also, the weird thing is, Kane has always matched up better height wise to Big Show than Kevin Nash.
I think that the WWE had Kane wear the lift so that it would be even more apparent that Kane was bigger than Taker.
Big Show - 6'11.75 vs Kane peak 6'8 + 1.5 inch lifts = 6'9.5 Kane. So it makes sense, their first ever staredown and KOTR '99, Show had only about 2.25 inches on Kane.
heightchecker34 said on 19/Jul/16
I have always thought Kane was a legit 6 ft 8. I don't know if the 6'7.5 listing is referring to his height now, because he might have lost half an inch over the years of wrestling. The 7'0 claims are complete nonsense, however the WWE will usually start that listing if the guy is over 6'8. He always looked a bit taller than the Undertaker and at least 4 inches shorter than the Big Show. But if Rob thinks he was 6'7.5 in his prime, I would not argue it.
Strong 5ft9 said on 18/Jul/16
Test looks about 6'4" next with John Cena.
James B said on 18/Jul/16
Rob I know this is a tough question but what would you bet more money on 6ft4, 6ft4.5 or 6ft4.75 for Test?
He looked bigger than a guy like randy orton didn't he?
James B said on 15/Jul/16
Wow just realised that Albert is a bit closer to the camera so that's why he looks taller next to test
James B said on 15/Jul/16
rob you think Test could have been 6ft4?
Editor Rob
yeah he might have been that range, he fought lashley once but I don't know if you could compare them.
Slim said on 14/Jul/16
It's clear his footwear isn't thicker than tests. If anything, Tests looks thicker.

Albert does look over 6'6 there in Mikes pic compared to Test but he might be in thicker footware?
Slim. said on 10/Jul/16
Albert was called 6'8" for a reason. Even in Japan. Y'all are some downgrading people geez. Funny how short people think I'm 5'9" but in reality I'm 6 foot. See how that works? I think that's what's going on here.
James B said on 9/Jul/16
Actually Albert and test were closer than you think in height. Vegas mentioned Albert used to wear huge ring gear and out of gear in person looked 6'5.
Albert 6'5.25

Omid said on 6/Jul/16
If test is 6'4.5, Nash wouldn't be 6'9...that's not 3 and half inches between them.
Slim said on 5/Jul/16
Please. That's too low for test. He himself said he was 6'6. Billed to 6'8. If you think he's 6'4 then Nash is nowhere near 6'8 HA
James B said on 2/Jul/16
Both 6'6 are 6'8 are exzagerrated billings for test given he looked not over 6'4.5 compared to Brock lesner.
Slim said on 1/Jul/16
Shuvayu great find! Interesting. But everytime I've seen Kane with test, he looks way taller than test than Nash did! Btw test was billed 6'8"
James B said on 1/Jul/16
When that match took place I think test was 6'4.75 and Nash 6'9.
Shuvayu said on 30/Jun/16
A good sequence here ...its nash vs test (a legit big guy billed at 6.6), if nash is 6'10" and test is 6'6" then kane should be 6'8". check from 1:05 to 1:15

6'2 said on 24/Jun/16
kane was given bigger boots than taker ever since his kane debut at badd blood 1997 so he could be given the 7ft billing since taker was billed 6'10.5. he was originnally billed 6'11 as dr yankeem dds and sometimes 6'9. i think as corperate kane in normal dress shoes you can see hes clearly not a 7 footer so a solid 6'7 id say nowadays 6'8 possibly 15-20 years ago.

James B said on 22/May/16
I think Kane in his prime was a 'weak giant' at a solid 6'7 1/2.
someone like Kevin Nash on the other hand was a legit giant. Big show has near 4 inches over 6'8 was more than just a giant.
Leo said on 21/May/16
@mrtguy
6'7-6'8 is giantish. He is from Spain and the spanish people are near of 5'8, so he is one feet taller!!!
rikashiku said on 21/May/16
@Shuvayu. That was a pretty good match for Four Big wrestlers. As for height, Kane definitely looks taller. Though his boots are thicker. I have a ton of evidence suggesting that Strowman isn't under 6'7". He's at least a weak 6'8" and maybe 6'7.5" min. It's had to tell actual height in that video but I'd say he's at least the same height as Kane if they were barefoot.
When playing Issac Yankem, he was announced as being 6'9" and over 300lbs, but to the shock of the commentators, he was bigger than Undertaker. Both wearing flat shoes.
Slim said on 20/May/16
Shuvayu great vid. Kane looks taller than both guys
mrtguy said on 19/May/16
I wouldn't consider Kane a giant, to me he is just a big guy. Certainly does not compare to Big Show or Andre in terms of being a giant and look

Kane was easily 6'9" during 95-2003 6'10.5" with gear .... post that reduce an inch due to injuries and half an inch from gear so 6.8 and 6.9 with gear today ... poor psoture makes strowman look taller when in reality it is not
Dan said on 12/May/16
Great post Leo, awesome interview! I'd agree with you Rob, being as modest as Glenn is he probably does mean barefoot. Still it proves he's no more than 6'9" in conventional footware, at least at this point. He has had a relatively injury free career, no serious back or leg injuries that would take away from his height. Perhaps he was a shade under 6'10" in his prime.

Collin Cassady is built @7 .... when kevin nash clearly mentioned him as 6'10" ... lets see how tall he stands
Dan said on 10/May/16
Rob - Awesome site, really appreciate all the research and work! Being around most attitude era superstars from the mid 90's through 2004, Kane's peak height (1997-2001) in conventional footwear was about 6'10", and he weighed a legit 325+ lbs. He was billed at 7'0" the majority of his career, now at 49 years old I'd give Kane a solid 6'8.5" - 6'9" in a typical sneaker / dress shoe (minimum heel). To help with ageing and some old injuries he has trimmed down to the 310 lb area. He always had 1.5 - 2 inches on The Undertaker (In wrestling gear), and was always 1.5 - 2 inches shorter than the 6'11.5" / 7'0" Big Show. Like you Rob, I am 5'8" and Kane definitely had over a foot on me. A true giant of the industry!
Editor Rob
just noticed in the previous comment by Leo (thanks) that Kane did go with 'about 6ft 8', I will put this quote at the top. I'm sure he's probably talking barefoot.

Kane would probably be similar to Kevin Nash in terms of height during the attitude era when he wore huge ring gear to promote his 7ft image. He was clearly taller than undertaker at wrestle mania 98 in his thick boots.
He looked taller than cass in my opinion in his gear back then and had much more impressive build.

Kane and Undertaker are similar in height,Nash has stood face to face with the undertaker and is clearly at least
2 inches taller, no way is Kane taller than Nash,

I'm not buying that Nash was way taller than Kane... Kane was always way closer in height to big show than Nash was and you cannot argue that. Nash looked so big because yes he was so tall but his upper body was big and lower body (legs) were small, giving an even better impression that he was tall. He looked a max 2" taller than taker. Glenn looked 1" taller than taker while Glenn was in flat boots. So that being said, Kane in his biggest boots would have an inch to 2" on Nash. My opinion.

@James B I couldn't agree more, occasionally the lowest undertaker can be is 6'6." Him next to Marc Colombo looks every bit 6'6.5" so I guess by the end of the day undertaker is 6'6" without any footwear. Undertaker next to Ali baba also looks 6'6" regardless of footwear.
Slim said on 28/Apr/16
I have 2 co workers who are 6'6 and the other claims he's 6'7 but looks a bit taller than that standing next to the 6'6 guy. The 6'6 guy says he's got to be joking bc he too thinks that guy is a good bit taller than that. After looking at some of his pics on fb, mainly it's him and his girlfriend, but he does NOT look 6'6 in pictures! In reality he is every BIT of 6'6 in person bc I work side by side him everyday. My point, well Kane looks very big in every single photo I've seen of him. 6'9 prime legit.

In Ring gear it may have looked close though.

Swagger looked around 6'5 in person (6'4 1/2 - 6'5)
Certainly shorter than guys like Corbin, heidenreich or Penn jillette who all looked over 6'5 in person
James B said on 12/Apr/16
Vegas how tall did swagger look to you then? Was swagger standing still or was he walking? Because editor rob quite rightly pointed out that the reason why wrestlers can look shorter in person is because they are walking and not standing at there best.

@JAmes B
If Barrett is only a fraction over 6'5", even though I proved it to you several times he is 6'6", then that makes the entire roster, and the audience in general, MUCH shorter.
--------------------------------------------------------
Because the audience IS much shorter in general. When you have someone who is anywhere near 6.5 feet tall standing with a bunch of more average height people it looks ridiculous. The difference is extemely noticeable.

Can´t see Edge at 6´4".
Nice pic, Goldust is imo pretty flat 6´4" and Kane has less than 3inches on him.
Question how much could Kane stretch out? He didn´t look taller than 6´6.5"-6´7" out of gear for quite a time.

That pic with Kane and Undertaker is a fake. It's an exact copy of the Kane/Swagger picture but with a filter. You can clearly see in the neck where Undertakers head was poorly Photoshoped on Swaggers body. Also I really doubt Undertaker and Swagger would be wearing the exact same attire, exact same colors, and standing the exact same way.

Oh that is the worst. I remember an article about Titus O'Neil where he was described as 6'9" and over 350lbs. I laughed at that very much when I looked at pictures of him in his NFL days looking no more than 6'4". He can get away with higher listings like 6'5"-6'6" only thanks to his long arms and legs. It's like Jack Swagger who is really about 6'5" but he can look much taller due to his long limbs, but then you see him next to 6'6" Wade Barrett and it turns out he isn't as giant as advertised.

It's really hard to tell because of the shifting camera angles, but when Kane does eventually catch Morgan for the Chokeslam and he stands up straight, it does look like Morgan is a little taller. I've always figured Morgan was about 6'9", maybe 6'8.5".

I just calculated the average billed height of the entire WWE active roster (not counting Divas, announcers, commentators, and dwarfs) and I found out it was around 74.6" (189.5cm), so that means 6'2.6". But that's the billed height. And since the average wrestler gets their real height inflated about 2 inches, I would estimate the average WWE wrestler's real height to be around 6'0.5" (184.2cm).

Yeah Ryback usually gives the impression of being 6'1" or 6'2". He's not quite as tall as Roman Reigns but he is about the same height as Bray Wyatt who I also pegged at 6'1". Ryback has been billed at 6'3" for a really long time, even in the Nexus days which was funny to see because at the time Wade Barrett was listed at 6'5" and we saw a massive height difference between them.
@universalstar said on 1/Feb/16
Good pic. It makes Kane look a solid 2" taller. Snitsky could be believed to be around 6'6" solid(I used to think 6'4" until I saw him tower over Randy Orton and Mike Knox, both around 6'4"-6'5").
@Slim said on 1/Feb/16
My work boots are about 5cm thick and my running shoes almost 6cm thick. Never seen 3" footware myself, but I don't doubt that they don't exist. I do think Strowman has worn them from time to time, as you can tell when he is around Erik Rowan or The Big Show, usually Strowman will look much taller than Rowan and almost the same height as Big Show. Then we see him in the boots he wore for his first two months where there was an obvious 3" or so height difference between him and Big Show.
James B said on 5/Feb/16
Ryback is more 6'1
Vegas said on 5/Feb/16
strowman and kane were both listed 6'8 outside of pro-wrestling, strowman in strongman and kane in college basketball in his 20s. that in itself suggests there isn't much between them
strowman out of gear is same height as brian shaw (also listed 6'8 in strongman). shaw had a couple of inches on ralf moller

@John said on 29/Jan/16
It's pretty obvious that no one expects him to wrestle in 3" lifts. But again, you can tell when he is wearing them, even when he doesn't wrestle most of the time, he just stands there or he either picks someone up or just throws his forearm at them and that's it. For some of the time, he's literally just there to look tall.
There is no way he is under 6'7".
Paul said on 30/Jan/16

@rikashiku
Do you really expect a huge guy like Strowman to wrestle in 3 inch lifts? He would've been moving like a robot if that was the case. If he was wearing any lifts, it would be like an inch maximum. Maybe he was wearing them during the staredown with Big Show and Kane. But not over an inch, I can guarantee you.

@Yam said on 26/Jan/16
Looking at the rumble again and Strowmans footwear isn't that thick anymore. They seem to be changing that a lot now. You can even see it when he sizes up Big Show. There's not an inch between them anymore, there's about 3" between them.
There is no way Strowman is under 6'7". The pics I posted, even if the guys he's with are half an inch shorter than I listed, will still show Strowman being near the 6'8" claims.
@James B, you need to consider footwear differences and camera angles because those are the two things you have never brought up but I have. Look at the first time he sizes up Kane, he does have the footwear advantage. Even with Big Show. HE's been wearing them since Rowan joined the Wyatts again. In other times he's looked shorter than both of them, especially in that Mexico tour last year with Undertaker, he was just shorter than Kane who himself claimed 6'8" some 2-3 years ago and was listed at 6'9" as Issac Yankem.
The first time he sized up Big Show, he wore the thicker soles. The Rumble, you can see the soles are much thinner and Show had about 3" over him.
The picture with Zack Deal, who is listed at 6'5" shows that Strowman is certainly above 6'6".

Reigns is 6'2.25"-6'2.5", there are more than enough photos to prove it. He was even measured as 6'2 5/8" in his football days. His wrestling boots are pretty thin-soled compared to most wrestlers, giving him the appearance of being sub-6'2".

@ slim, Kane at his heaviest (either 1998 or early 2002) was not as big as Strowman is now. Strowman looks an easy 360 lbs, Kane never looked above 330. I'll concede Kane's arms looked on par or bigger, but Strowman's chest and shoulders are definitely bigger.
They look about the same height, can't call it either way. Don't forget Strowman comes from strongman. He is a monster.
HeightcrazyRed6ft said on 25/Jan/16
Only way Strowman is under 6´6.5"-6´7" is when roman reigns is barely 6´1"
though I still doubt Reigns is a legit 6´2", I don´t see him under 6´1.5" either
Slim said on 25/Jan/16
There is a reason Glenn was billed at 6-10 7ft in the past... Bc he was close to it. I've seen videos of his very early wrestling career where he was announced as 6'8 to 6'10. The fact that he wore lifts on the outside of his boots has nothing to do with undertaker. What I'm saying is, is that people think it was to make him bigger than undertaker, he already was. He was always taller than mark. Plenty of early photos and vids to prove it. In actuality, undertaker wore lifts inside his boots. Trust me I can tell. So therefore Kane needed a boost to bring their height back the way it was like barefoot. Glenn was always 1"-2" taller than mark. If y'all claim taker was 6'7 peak then there should be no more debate that Glenn was in fact 6'8 6'9.
James B said on 25/Jan/16
Kane can look shorter than he is in reality but i think he is not over 6'7 today

Then you're implying that Strowman is only 6'4"-6'5" which he is clearly not from what I've shown.
Slim said on 24/Jan/16
A younger Kane would definitely be much larger than strowman in every way. It's been proven that Kane is taller than Rowan. Not much shorter than big show, he claims 6'8" I mean... Why is it a debate who's taller between him and strowman? Kanes arms a quite a bit longer than strowmans as well. Lifts+back straightened+head tilted back= strowman BARELY edging Kane? Please.
James B said on 23/Jan/16
Rob given that strowman has bigger boots and superior posture in poster DFens picture could that indicate that strowman might be more 6'6 range than near 6'8?
Kane today I doubt is over 6'7

@mrtguy said on 22/Jan/16
I haven't seen him that much. Any pics of him with other near height athletes?
@James B said on 22/Jan/16
So what you're saying is Strowman is only 6'4"-6'5" then... If he has bigger footware and only just looks the same height as Kane. Kane is probably closer to 6'7.5" now a days. He's said himself he's 6'8" in an interview so he could be anywhere from 6'8" to 6'7". Definitely not under 6'7".
@Vegas said on 21/Jan/16
Links if possible? I'd like to see this. Also, would you happen to know how often Basketball height listings are accurate or not?
As for Shad, in the pictures he's mostly looked about 6'5". I've met him in person and I'd say anywhere from 6'5" to 6'6" seems right for him.

Wow, you're really downgrading them now. Strowman did have footware advantage. He's been wearing them for months now, since Rowan came back. The pictures I've provided definitely show that he is above 6'7" and near 6'8". As for Kane, they did look very similar in height. STrowmans posture made him look a little more than an inch taller.

I don't think so.......strowman looked dead on same as Kane with bigger footware and footware advantage.

Did strowman really have larger footwear than Kane? If he was the same height as Kane then with footware advantage plus much better posture he would have pulled of looking much taller but yet he looked the same size.
That to me would indicate that strowman is under 6'7 but then Vegas saw him as noticibly taller strowman in person

Hard to tell because Barrett is closer to the camera and when JBL is moving around like that he either looks smaller or looks nearly the same height as Barrett. Perhaps 6'5.5" to JBL and 6'6" to Barrett? or 6'5" to JBL and 6'5.5" to Barrett?
