The Hornswoggle gimmick lasted longer than it probably should have in WWE
6: Giant Gonzalez
Ad
Jorge Gonzalez was a former Argentine basketball player who was drafted by the Atlanta Hawks. Let’s just say he was equally awful under the basket as he was in the ring. He had tremendous size at supposedly eight-feet tall and 460 pounds, he had trouble with mobility and moving around the ring. He was every bit a circus attraction if there ever was one. Also known as El Gigante’ he died in his home country at the age of 44 in 2010.

I've been a fan of this business for over 40 years and have been writing about it for the past 20 years. I'm an old school NWA guy who believes in the Texas Bull Rope Match and the wrestlers from "parts unknown". Yes, the Midnight Rider was robbed and should have been NWA World Champion. Wanna know more? Just ask more. Or better yet, read my work.
