Pro Wrestlers As Pro Bodybuilers

johncena69 · 04-13-2006, 06:16 AM

Who do you think from the ranks of pro wrestling today would do good in the ranks of pro bodybuilding. I think Chris Masters, John Cena and Batista.

j_neatherlin · 04-13-2006, 06:36 AM

none of them

P.O.L · 04-13-2006, 06:47 AM

christ masters is in pretty good condition, think hes like 275lbs bodyfat looks pretty low.

redinator · 04-13-2006, 06:58 AM

look for most wrestlers to decrease in size now that the WWE has banned steroids use from it's members.

Phrook · 04-13-2006, 08:41 AM

WWE banning steroids is like IFBB being natural dont be silly

in any even, those dudes are pretty huge, but they are just there to do just that be huge. they dont have the symmetry and all that other jazz needed to compete with bodybuilders

30/7/66 · 04-13-2006, 08:49 AM

maybe viscera

MisterMak · 04-13-2006, 08:50 AM

Kurt Angle appears to be wasting away. I don't watch much pro wrestiling but the last time I saw him he had shrunk considerably.

AangleN · 04-13-2006, 09:01 AM

you need more than arms and traps to be a good bodybuilder...which is all about 90% of wrestlers have. look at their legs, back, most of them have weak chests as well. don't get me wrong, most are big and lean, but not pro-level.

P.O.L · 04-13-2006, 09:06 AM

yeh they're on the road alot of the time, would be hard to keep up the training, diet and cardio. Triple H has let himself go, supposdly he had a IFBB pro training him recently though. he's got a big chest no shoulders no lower back, and ****ty bodyfat.
out of curiosity does anyone watch TNA??

coachkohio · 04-13-2006, 09:14 AM

Hey John, you are absolutely right! where in Mass did you grow up? i grew up in sudbury, went to lincoln sudbury high school

yenal · 04-13-2006, 09:17 AM

Batista is huge but he doesn't work his legs...

Batista was bodybuilding before he began wrestling. He trained with Kamali.

Ultimate Warrior also was bodybuilding before he wrestled.

Triple H did bodybuilding as a teen before wrestling.

Out of the starts now, I think Cena, HHH, Batista, and Masters could be bodybuilders.

There's no way to really tell who could be pro bodybuilders because their training is so much different than bodybuilders.

Phrook · 04-13-2006, 09:47 AM

the problem with batista is that he is way too tall... his legs are very long. but he trains them. they just look thin
HHH is(was) a beast when he cam back from his quad tear
cena, he has a shape that doesn't sit well with me
and masters, maybe he has a chance somewhere

badreligion · 04-13-2006, 10:06 AM

John Cena and Chris Masters used to do shows

batista hes never stepped onstage but has admitted hes more of a bodybuilder than a wrestler

and ya teh WWE has banned steroids , but stuff like protien powders and creatine is still ok

DaHooligan · 04-13-2006, 10:34 AM

LMAO WWE aint banning steroids saying they are , is different then actually doing so....this is not a league or sport its a show and vince mchmahon is bull****ting cause he doesnt need to test them for ****,...he is only doing that to attract more fans...

HAHAAHHA at people believing he really banning roids!

Just like they believe wrestling is real....its apart of the story line Vince said im banning roids....its apart of the script he aint getting rid of that ****...if he did guys like masters and some other people will be walking stick figures.

Of course protein and creatine is still okay. They can't even be compared with roids. You've nver heard of people getting mad at Barry Bonds for drinking a protein shake.

I used to work w/ "big chris" he trains/eats like a bodybuilder but idk if he ever competed, i think his father did and was also his trainer.

cena used to compete as a natural

An indy-fed in SoCal. I never wrestled thim, though...thank God

RS3000 · 04-13-2006, 09:17 PM

WWE is going through with the ban for sure.

Masters looks a bit smaller, and Kurt Angle has pretty much deflated. His neck and arms are way smaller now.

MoGeaYuglay · 04-13-2006, 09:57 PM

I'm glad most of the wrestlers are just complying with the new rules instead of whining or worse, sneaking around it.

Amoral · 04-13-2006, 10:02 PM

All you guys thinking that the WWE banned steroids need to wake up. It doesn't make sense to ban them anyway. The guys that are dying are dying because of Rec drugs like coke heroin etc.

Spot on!

WWE did implement a Durg Policy but when it comes down to it, the top stars will always be exempt from this. Hands down. They did this 12 yrs ago with the whole Hulk Hogan steroid scandal. Guys got smaller for about 2 yrs and then it was forgotten about and all the Monesters started coming back.

Whether you beleive it or not, Chris Benoit would be a great BBer, you never see them but he has phenomenal legs.

I remember when Masters hit the scene...one of his accolades was youngest competitor to grace the Olympia stage....this died very fast.

Lex Luger was another guy that didn't have the best of legs but was always lean.

MrUniverse61 · 04-14-2006, 10:00 AM

Has everyone forgotten about Bill Goldberg? He was huge, and a bad ass! I always thought he looked big and somewhat symmetrical. He again is no Coleman, Cutler, or any others...but always liked him.

Benoit is THE man, no mic work, just wrestle. and he can have a good match with anyone. if you still watch WWE, they had a new guy Bobby Lashley, he's bigger and leaner than batista and cena

jay_snizzel · 04-14-2006, 11:03 AM

ahh yes Luger.. the man is in prison now though for killing his girlfriend/wife.
or so i heard
