In light of the cuckman's horrendous failure, which wrasslers

Lashley

Jericho. He did take down Goldberg in a shoot fight.

With proper training probably Ziggler, thats about it
Maybe Swagger or Jericho

The Steiner Brothers, Karl Gotch, Billy Robinson, Lou Thesz, Verne Gagne, Bruno Sammartino, Ed Louis, Billy Wicks, Finn Balor, William Regal, Fit Finlay, Kurt Angle, Ole Anderson, Stu Hart, Harley Race.

>>1738509
Ziggler already has proper training.
If you are gonna talk proper training tho, and we're thinking natural gifts like size, speed, athleticism, I think Rusev could tear it up.
Corbin would rek too

Hunico Cara

>>1738519
>Corbin would rek too
Golden Glove
he would just need to be trained to stop takedowns

>>1738501

my gorilla legend ryback

>>1738531
Yes he did.

>>1738482
But he would start the match with a rear naked choke and refuse to let go.

People with amateur wrestling background or MMA background can do well in UFC.

Randy Orton
Rusev
Alberto Del Rio
Steiner Brothers
Bret Hart

There are more but these are the first that popped in my mind.

>>1738482
Lesnar

>>1738482

Del Rio

We'll see if these UFC pussies still talk shit after getting injured by the GOAT.

>Wrestlers with amateur wrestling background on the current WWE roster:

Swagger
Orton
Ziggler
Chad Gable

>Wrestlers with MMA experience on the current roster

>>1738605
Catch wrestlers have historically done well in MMA.

Imagine how nice his striking would be with his power.

>>1738662
Cesaro is like a UFC fighter that changed his mind at the last second of his career. He even talks and looks like a bland UFC guy.

>>1738673
Testosterone causes that 'bland' look. Can't wait until the UFC becomes more popular and all the fighters will be black.

Why are we even trying to compare? This is /asp/, we are wrestling fans. Who gives a fuck about UFC?

>>1738482
>Gets a small knock to the head
>Snaps and proceeds to break the neck of is opponent using several illegal moves

Wrestling fans are very insecure about their fake sport

>People forgetting about the obvious ones (of course in their prime)

Kane was insanely strong and Taker's ars alone are bigger than some mens.

>>1738662
I forgot this guy existed. Is he still with WWE?

>>1738750
Just being a big strong doofus isn't enough when the other guy actually knows how to fight

>>1738741
Technically, pro-wrestling IS a sport though.

But personally I don't see any comparisons between it and MMA. They're like chalk and cheese. And I am happy having it like that. Punk is an idiot for thinking he could hop from one to the other.

>>1738750
Big doesn't necessarily mean good in UFC, it's alot harder to perform submissions on small guys than big guys because of the small target on their limbs.
And big guys are generally slower to react because of their mass.

>>1738482
The big guy

>>1738755
>implying Kane wouldn't have trained because hurrdurr I'm stong who needs to know how to fight
retard

Didn't Big Show break like a bunch of bones in a dude face from one punch?

>>1738779
>which is why you have weight divisions
>which is why McGregor couldn't put Diaz down because his strikes weren't as effective against a bigger guy

>>1738785
Big Show's hand is as big as most guys head so I wouldn't be surprised.

>>1738785
He punched some guy that was harassing him and broke his jaw

>>1738785
https://youtu.be/JEYGPrlwvMQ yeah it happens at like 0:54 in this video

Kek hope that moron enjoyed having to eat through a straw

>>1738786
You're using the body-mass-length measurement. You can be bigger and still retain the weight of a smaller guy.

Guys with decent wrestling credentials could dry hump some guys for three rounds. Some could and have gone pretty far. Angle in his prime, Swaggie has the reach, speed and height to be a monster, guys like Ziggler, Corbin and those Angle knock offs could go far.

You also have guys like Lesnar, Del Rio, Sakuarba (The Gracie Hunter, known for competing and humiliating against the renown family while wearing a wrestling mask and mongolian chopping them in matches) and Lashley.

This guy.

Tonga Fifita/Haku/Meng would probably wipe the floor with everyone in his youth if any of the stories are true. I'd like to think Masada could've done well at some point, considering his extensive Taekwondo background and status as general badass.

>>1738824
Sakuraba is a Wigan style wrestler. Catch wrestlers have been humiliating practitioners of other martial arts for centuries.

>>1738839
Meng was a sumo before he was a pro wrestler, so there's his martial arts experience.

>>1738832
Meng in MMA would be terrifying.

>>1738662
Sounds weird, but he lifts too much, and gets injured easily. That's why he's also suffering minor shit in the WWE.
In the UFC he'd be a paper tissue punching bag.

>>1738847
I think Meng said he didn't go because he knew he'd get circles danced around him by practiced fighters.
Dude's smart, he would have.

>>1738605
Randy Orton has amateur wrestling background?

>>1738496
already did MMA an won I believe

>>1738868
Lashley is 14-2
USADA would say HI to him in UFC

Lashley's MMA career is actullay Punk-tier or even worse.

All of his fights are vs literally who's who never made it/will never make it while his only fight vs a decent opponent ended with him being TKO'ed almost instantly.

>>1738921
Punk's only fight was against a literally who who ended him.
Lashley's career may not be impressive considering the caliber of his opponents but Punk got slaughtered by an average nobody in under a round.

>>1738928
>by an average nobody

Mickey is already better than Lashleys opponents. Atleast he made it into the UFC.

>>1738941
Even the most "who" UFC fighters are 10x more popular than the bellator fucks.

>>1738943
He made it into the UFC because he was the most credible no-name to they had to fight against an actual (kinda) name.

>>1738962
You are basically agreeing he is in a higher tier than Lashley's opponents

>>1738769
just because its covered by ESPN doesn't make it a sport

see: World Series of Poker, National Spelling Bee, WNBA

>>1738981
Can you read?

Corbin

>>1738994

Why didn't they buy/take.use any Bellator guy then :^)

Because Cm shit would have trashed them to oblivion. Micky instead is a guy with potential

>>1738868
He's still doing it, he's fighting in october

>>1738605

Dorito got KO'd by CroCop in less than a minute.

>>1738921
I can't imagine you're doing mental gymnastics to protect Punk, because I can't imagine /asp/ would protect Punk right now.
So, you're just unbelievably dumb?

>>1739008
Punk would have thrashed them on what grounds?
I don't know if you have a hate-boner for Lashley, or a boner for Punk, but I'll make it simple: 14-2 is a better career than 0-1. Especially if that 0-1 was an utter embarrassment.

So,does Randy Orton have amateur wrestling background?
