He's a guy that could've easily main evented against Hogan but got put in that mid-card spot and never got out of it. Not a bad thing, he got paid for a long time. But with his look, today, he's a fucking superstar.

He's definitely underrated. I think people weren't that high on him due to being a lackluster World Title opponent for Simmons plus being in a team with Warlord kinda painted him into "muscle bound roid head who can't wrestle" that a lot of the guys from late 80s/early 90s got
I mean, how many guys his size were pulling off shit like this in the 1990 WWF or even in general
