Word's Strongest Men: 10 of the Strongest Wrestlers Ever

4. Hercules Hernandez

Is that a legend helplessly aloft on Hercules Hernandez's shoulders?

Hercules Hernandez is the gimmick by which Raymond Fernandez was best known. However, he was also known as Mr Wrestling III and the Masked Assassin before employing the gladiator style persona of Hercules.

Hernandez is best known for his feud with Ultimate Warrior and the tag team he formed with Paul Roma, but his career spanned many decades and continents. Not only was he a powerful wrestler, he also appeared in numerous bodybuilding magazines due to his chiseled and shall we say Greek God-like physique.

Hercules passed on due to heart disease in 2004, but he remains an icon of the WWE classic era.
