World Championship Wrestling was known as the "home where the big boys played" throughout the 1990s. WCW was the second-largest wrestling promotion in the United States throughout the 90s. For 83 consecutive weeks, WCW was arguably the most successful promotion in the world. While the 1980s would be the era of the muscle men in professional wrestling, WCW in the 1990s had their fair share of hulking stars. WCW had many main even feuds featuring super sized men such as Hulk Hogan, Lex Luger, Sting, Bill Goldberg and Sid Vicious. Even the WCW Women's division was physically stacked.

Meng and the Barbarian with Jimmy Hart as their manager comprised the Faces of Fear. One of the most dominating tag teams in all of WCW.

The late great Scott Hall was 6'6 and 280 plus pounds of muscle. Hall in particular could have easily been considered a body guy, if it wasn't for his technical expertise and charisma.
