@ChristianPerkins Well knowing how to wrestle would actually be a good start, and there are not that much over 6'7-6'8 giants that can do it that well apart from Taker, Kane and of course big Show.
Sid, Waylon Mercy (Spivey) and Diesel were good too but really not that much people.
People like Kurrgan, Khali etc just standing there being intimidating generally won't cut it.

Rob, for me he looked an inch taller than undertaker.. I don’t think he’s a full 6ft9. Maybe 6ft8 1/2 is fair for him
Editor Rob
He is taller than Taker, but I can't remember from that, just how tall, with Tiny Lister and a bit worse posture, it's not hard to imagine him over 6ft 8
Tiny Lister was a legit 6'5" man in the late 80's. I am quite certain he wasn't 6'5" when that picture was taken considering he was around 60 years old at that time and could been about 6'4". RIP.

@Zuber
Like they've done with 8 out of every 10 big men that signed with WWE. Big men/giants actually often have low ceilings in the indsutry, especially if they don't have charisma or stand out character wise. Just as small guys have ceilings as well. It's best to be an above average sized guy like Cena, Rock, HHH, Orton and Reigns but not overly big or gigantic.

I agree with 184guy. Not sure if he has lost height but his peak was likely what Rob listed him. Hopper could be 6’4.75”

looked only 1.5 at most taller than peak kane.i doubt he is tall as listed.if kurrgan really is 6’9 then kane might have chance of measuring 6’8 but i still don’t feel that neither kurrgan was 6’9 nor kane was ever 6’8.

Editor Robeye to chin is about 6 inches probably for Robert. Last thing I remember seeing him in was when he briefly fought Tom Hopper in Umbrella Academy. Tricky to say just how many inches taller he was though.

Rob,
Perhaps it’s time to downgrade Maillet based on the pic with Mikkelsen? Looks only 8.5 inches taller there.
If Mikkelsen is 5’11 3/4” then Maillet can’t be more that 6’8 1/4” today.

Lol at Robert's 6'11 claim. Here with 182cm Mads Mikkelsen, compared to legit 6'11 guy Joonas Suotamo with 191cm guy. Robert should look like that with 191cm guy, not with 182cm guy.
Click Here
6'8.5 is my guess for Robert. Looks easily 2.5in shorter than Suotamo.

Over 6ft8 for sure but a full 6ft9 i’m not convinced .. tough, but with 6ft7 Tyler mane (today), he’s not a great amount of difference.

Here is with taker in another shoot

He looks anywhere between 6ft8-9
I think 6ft8 1/2 is the better option for him

Hi Rob,
You think a peak Matt Morgan would be taller than Maillet?
Nathan Jones and Morgan were very close in height back in 2003 and you have Jones listed here at 6’10”.

Maillet to me looked the most impressive of the big guys (Kane, Taker, Nathan Jones, Nash, Morgan) He seemed to have more natural strength and power. He would have made a perfect Zangief with a mohawk and beard!

Could have lost a little height by now. Perhaps peak 6’9”, current 6’8.75”. The pics with Nash it’s hard to determine what footwear both are wearing.

ZED Kane and kurrgan did battle each other in a match like a royal rumble. It's very rare. Lawler said kurrgan was the biggest guy in the ring then JR said "actually Kane is bigger, heavier and slightly taller" then later in the match they went toe to toe. I believe Kane choke slammed him or close lined him over the ropes. Kane did look slightly taller. This was 98 or 99.
could you link us to that please?

When I use to turn on the tv back in the day, when Kane burned Taker in a casket, I always wanted to see Kurgan and Kane go at it. They had similar monster roles, Kurgan was a scary dude and so was Kane. I always hoped that when Kurgan destroyed everyone in the ring, the lights would turn off and out would come Kane and they'd have a staredown. But unforunately that never happened as I think they wanted to protect Kane as being 7 feet tall as he was the WWF's top giant at the time. I think Kurgan was a legit 6'10 at the time and Kane with his lifts would've been around 6'9.5ish

Maillet looks 6'8.5"-6'9". Reason I say that there is a picture out on the web which shows Maillet with Ian whyte and Peter Mayhew and Maillet looks 3-4 inches shorter than Whyte who probably is 7'0.5" and 1.5-2 inches shorter than Mayhew who now probably is 6'10"-6'10.5"
