His only American run as “Loch Ness” came nearly twenty years past his prime, but that prime saw him as one of the biggest draws in England and was possibly the largest worker of his day.  Giant Haystacks became an International star, though he failed to gain any real foothold in North America.   The question with one of the heaviest wrestlers in British history, is would there be a place for a man who was only truly over in Europe in the WWE Hall of Fame?  We have been shocked before.


Should Giant Haystacks be in the Hall of Fame?

Probably not, but it wouldn't be the end of the world. - 15%
