RIP Big Van Vader

[Nintendough]

We all know the WWE HOF is bullshyt, but Vader really wanted to get in there while he was alive. It's a disgrace they didn't give it to him and the fans.

He is more deserving than most of the people already in there.

Fukk the E HOF. They put Jeff slap nuts Jarrett in there. Weak as weak can get

This was my first time seeing a wrestler get them hands on an authority figure:

Monsoon shouldn't have touched him

I know peeps talked shyt about HBK in here but I think his match with Vader is one of my favs of all time. Vader was so believable as a monster, it was a perfect example of David vs Goliath. Plus the finish was great...you couldnt beat him with the superkick, it took a moonsault with a knee to the head to take him out.

R.I.P.

Even though it's too late Vince better put him in the HOF next year.

Vader was the perfect big man in his time, the only one like him was Bam Bam during that era. I saw him in WCW, and he was just in a league of his own. Once he was there full-time, having feuds with Sting, Cactus and Flair solidified that dude. Then he came to WWF and crippled Gorilla Monsoon : Sucks how things burnt out for him in WWF, cause he was a dude who they could've and should've given much more time as an upper-card guy. Definitely one of the heels of my childhood that I couldn't help but like because of how much of a killer he was in the ring.

Did Vader ever work with Bam Bam? I can't think of any matches...they never seemed to be in the same promotion at the same time. But I might be overlooking something.

I don't know about matches as opponents, but they were a tag team in Japan for a bit.
