Ever since being founded in 2019, AEW has made it a point to note that they are different from their competition. Their roster of wrestlers certainly varies and they have a great difference in wrestling styles as well.

Focusing more on the sports side than the sports entertainment side, AEW has managed to garner quite a large following of hardcore wrestling fans. As a result, the company has been doing quite well, and over the years, has signed multiple top superstars.

Given the variation among the type of wrestlers they sign, AEW has some of the shortest and also some of the tallest wrestlers out there.

In this article, we will be taking a look at some of the tallest wrestlers currently a part of AEW. It should be noted that part-time wrestlers or those with one-time appearances, such as The Big Show or Shaq, will not be considered. Figures on the heights of the wrestlers have been taken from Cagematch.net.


#5 AEW wrestler Dustin Rhodes – 193 cm or 6 feet and 3 inches

When wrestling fans looked at Goldust, it was easy to forget just what an impressive physique the superstar had under that golden paint. Dustin Rhodes is quite tall and in AEW, he probably had the best match of his career when he faced his brother in the first-ever Double or Nothing pay-per-view.

Since then, he has wrestled on and off, but has been a consistent presence. Working more backstage, Dustin Rhodes has been indispensable for WWE. He is also one of the key figures behind the improvement of the women’s division to its current state.

Dustin Rhodes is extremely impressive in the ring, too, as when he wrestles it feels like the years have melted away. He can hit moves that no one his age should be able to connect so flawlessly. Hopefully, he can keep wrestling for a long time.

#4 AEW wrestler Luchasaurus – 196 cm or 6 feet and 5 inches

Luchasaurus is one of the biggest stars currently in AEW. As part of Jurassic Express, the wrestler is immensely popular with the fans, and despite having the gimmick of being a dinosaur has managed to get over with the crowd. As a result, he remains one of the stars who is waiting to break through in a big way in the future.

However, in his role as a part of Jurassic Express, Luchasaurus has been pivotal in Jungle Boy’s journey to being a main event performer. While they are a good tag team, Luchasaurus helping Jungle Boy to fulfill his role has helped the star to get massively over as well.


#3 AEW wrestler Cezar Bononi – 198 cm or 6 feet and 6 inches

In WWE, Cezar Bononi always looked like he had a lot of potential, but it was never really realized. He worked in the company for a total of five years and somehow throughout that time, despite being named the “Future star of NXT," he never broke through. He was released from the company on April 17, 2020.

In AEW, Cezar Bononi has become a regular wrestler. Along with the Wingmen in AEW, he has found a lot of success and has started to look like a threat. Peter Avalon, Cezar Bononi, Ryan Nemeth, and JD Drake have somehow managed to become a randomly good faction with no one being able to point out just what makes them such a success.

#2 AEW wrestler Jake Hager – 201 cm or 6 feet 7 inches

In AEW, Jake Hager is known not only for his wrestling ability, but he is also one of the tallest men on the roster. Overall, he has done a good job so far in the company, although he has not really achieved much outside his presence in the Inner Circle.

Hager is one of the strongest members of the Inner Circle and has been represented as the muscle of the group. Overall, his legitimate fighting skills and success in Bellator has only added further meaning to his run in the company.

#1 AEW wrestler Lance Archer – 203 cm or 6 feet 8 inches

Currently, Lance Archer is the tallest wrestler in AEW. So far, his AEW career has been hit and miss. While he has found some level of success, every time he has gotten close to winning a major title match, he has fallen short.

Lance Archer looks more threatening than most wrestlers and for the most part, he can decimate anyone he comes across. Yet in his two matches for the TNT title against Miro and Cody Rhodes he has come up short.

Hopefully, AEW’s giant will be able to get the brass ring that he has been looking for and win the title soon.
