Often a debate may ensue as to who is the best wrestler pound for pound.  Mike Shaw may have tipped the scales at nearly 400 pounds, but pound for pound he was saddled with the worst gimmicks in wrestling history.  A far better wrestler then he was allowed to show, Shaw was an escaped mental patient, a demented monk and even worse had his highest profile run as a slovenly hunchback named Bastion Booger.  Could it be possible that Mike Shaw deserves a posthumous induction just for the years of possessing embarrassing personas?
