Sting might've 6ft2 and change peak, Hennig almost 6ft2, Luger a legit 6ft3, DDP a legit 6ft4 as claimed and Scott Hall I think similar to JBL - both 6ft5.

Sting told me hennig was only about 6'1" not as tall as him i think sting should be like 6'1 n a half he is like 1 n a half inches shorter than luger luger and ddp r the same height n scott hall was like 6'4 n a quarter like 6'4" correct stings height to like 6' 1 n 3 quarters sting told me he was exactly 6'2 but he cant be because he is 1 n a half inch shorter than luger who is like 6'3 n a quarter Scott hall was a bit shorter than jbl who is like 6'5"

Perfect, Bigelow and Ultimate Warrior were typical 6ft1½-2 guys that could get away with the 6ft3 WWE billed them at with ring gear etc.

Had one of his Hasbro figures the series 8 red card. They had his height as 6'4"! Lol while his first figure from series 3 had him at an even 6". He was a buff dude, but looked about 6'2", maybe a tad less. But Hasbro had guys like earthquake at 6 ft 4 and typhoon at 6 ft 6. Typhoon was a little bit shorter than earthquake or maybe even the same height. Earthquake may have been around six five and a half. Also remember Hasbro series 4 had taker at 6ft 8 in. Which was more realistic well on the other hand, the series 8 figure had him at 6 ft 10 and 1/2 in. It had Bam Bam Bigelow at 6 ft 6 when in reality he was about 6 ft 1, and yokozuna at 6 ft 5 when in reality was about 6 ft or 6 ft 1. Hulk Hogan at 6ft 8 when he was about 6 ft 5 boss man at 6 ft 6 when he was about 6 ft 2 or 3. Got a magazine article stating he was 6 ft 2. And Dutch mantel said he was about 6 ft 2 or 3 I believe. But some of his heights seemed off off. I will give Curt hennig 6'1 1/2". Didn't mean to be descriptive, but I just remembered this is a child.

@ SeanR
Yeah, Steve had two pre draft measurements in 1982…one was 6’3.5” and the other was 6’3.25”….the 6’3.5” likely was a morning measurement. I do believe the 6’3.25” is from the Senior Bowl. So, we can just call Steve 6’3.25”. Both men are in equal footwear (sneakers) this being said & with these photos …Curt needs an immediate down grade to 6’1.25”. And this is more proof that backs up Rick Rude only being 6’2.5” barefoot “as he claimed himself”!! I would also drop a peak Scott Hall to 6’4.75” …and I’d lay money down that Scott Hall in his prime was actually only 6’4.5” barefoot early afternoon. Which means we all are still waiting on that Hulk Hogan down grade to 6’5.25”, Rob…LOL! It’s well proven by now that the absolute peak you could go on Hulk Hogan would be 6’5.5”….he never sniffed a true barefoot 6’6”.

As referenced on Rick Rude’s page, here is NFL listed 6’3” Steve Jordan with Curt Hennig looking about 2 inches taller:

Here is Steve Jordan with his 6’4” combine listed (which is probably earlier in the day height) son Cameron:

Steve only looking about 1/2 inch shorter than his son so maybe he is 6’3 1/2”.
Steve actually looks taller than Rick Rude compared to Curt, so maybe there is some truth to Rude being 6’2 1/2”.

Looks 6-1 imo. Looked 2”/2.5” over flair.

Curt looks almost ethereal with his blond braids.
He can have 6ft1.75. 😀

Spot on Rob
A weak 6ft2 guy all the way and an easy 6ft3+ in wrestling gear. About 2in on Bret (legit 6ft peak). WWE generally wasn't as bad with billed heights in the 80's-90's as they are now. Guys were worst case 1-2in below what the program said but when once they put their gear on, viola....5ft11¼ HBK was all of a sudden 6ft1, 6ft2¾ Goldberg was just over 6ft4 and of course 6ft6 Hulk Hogan was gargantuan 6ft7+

Legit listing
Looked 2cm taller than Roddy Piper in 1990

This guy gives a 6'1 illusion, maybe his big frame doesn't help.
