Aleksandar Jaksic trained under former WWE Intercontinental Champion Santino Marella, but the 24-year-old played semi-pro basketball in Germany before setting his sights on the ring.

Standing at 6-foot-5 and 230 pounds, Jaksic trained at Marella's Battle Arts Academy in Canada, but was also coached by WCW star Alex Wright.

The 24-year-old competed in Germany under the moniker LX Ken over the past few years, and signs after taking part in WWE’s tryout in Cologne last November.

And how do you go bigger than that? Well, with one inch in height and 35 pounds on Jaksic is EJ Nduka!

Now, that's no slight on Jaksic, because Nduka's physique is more unique than most current WWE Superstars.

Standing at six-foot-six and weighing in at 265 pounds, Nduka may be the most athletically diverse star in this class. Having played professional football for four years, including stints in the CFL, IFL and AFL, and later becoming a champion bodybuilder, Nduka didn't stop there.

The 30-year-old has also trained in mixed martial arts and boxing, and attended tryouts at the WWE Performance Center in December 2018 and April 2019.
