Would you say that Snitsky was taller than a peak Charles Barkley? I would
Editor Rob

I d'give Snitsky the edge

Yeah I’m quite surprised that he’s sub 6’5. Guess he must have been sneaking big lifts

He was 6’4-5. Described by a commentator as 6’6. Billed 6’8 and I read an article than calls him 7’0. How does a 6’4 guy get a 7 foot billing?

Snitsky looked about 1 inch taller than Tiny Lister Jr. back in 2014.

Lister Jr. was in his mid-50's back then and Snitsky in his early 40's.
We can't see footwear, but I doubt Lister lost much height. Could he have been shorter than his listed 6'5" height?

There’s a segment in Wrestlemania 22 (2006) where you see Goldust, Snitsky and Booker T standing near each other
Goldust looks huge because of his hair but easily a solid 6’4 without it
Snitsky is 2 inches above Goldust
Booker looks tiny, maybe 6’1

I’ve heard as high as 6’8. But really I’m gonna say strong 6’5, maybe 6’6

There is a pic of Nathan Jones (peak 6’9 1/4”) and Heidenreich holding a trophy that can be searched online. Heidenreich looks a solid 4+ inches shorter than Jones there.
Snitsky and Heidenreich look about the same height and NFL listed Heidenreich at 6’5”. So I think Heidenreich can be in that 6’4 3/4” 6’4 7/8” range as well.

@Canson
Didn't know he played NFL football. He could be more 194cm at his low, based on the combine figure.

What a wonderful name! Before I even think of having fun at his expense, I'd better observe that he's a bit taller than me!
Mr Snitsky can have 6ft4.7/8ths. 😁👍

Rob, I'm not seeing 6'6 here considering he is also with JBL here who is 6'5. At most 6'5.25 because 6'6 Heidenreich obviously edges him out a good bit.

I honestly think snitsky is 6ft5 1/2 or 3/4 or viscera was a touch over 6ft6 1/2.

Because the difference between this 2 has always seemed more than half of an inch

With 6ft2 triple h again he isn’t 6ft6. Near that for sure.. i think 6ft5 1/2 is ok for him or 6ft5 3/4 at the most

Yes but in the video segment i post he doesn’t look 6ft6 in every case with orton. 1.5 inches taller is probably but 2 inches is too much. My friend post in viscera page the difference between viscera and snitsky next to kane, and viscera doesn’t look only 1/2 an inch taller.

Always seemed like a 6'5 guy especially in his face offs with Kane.

@MS: I’d bet money He’s not 6’6. I may actually have him high at 6’5.5. May just be 6’5 the more I see. Ben could be near that height but combines are held earlier in the day so wouldn’t surprise me if Ben were under 195 in the evening

Gene Snitsky can´t be 6-6. With almost 6-5 Ben Rothlisberger: Click Here
6-4,5 - 6-4,75 is Snitsky´s height.

Looks a legit 6ft 6, Arnie here looks closer to 6ft than 5ft 11 here though, how old is this pic Rob or is it recent?

Editor RobI think Arnie might have thinner sneakers, it's a few years old I believe, early 2015 maybe.

Nice add Rob! I always wonder the heights of former WWE monsters! I always thought he was around 6'6.5, so this listing seems fine. After looking at clips of him, since it has been a while, I think you hit the nail on the head. I think lowest he would measure is 6'5.75. Rob, who do you think would measure taller... Snitsky or Baron Corbin? Baron Corbin just is a skinny beanpole, (he lost the muscle after his NFL days) while Gene has muscle mass. Also, I wonder how tall Jon Heidenrich is. In one clip when they are attacking The Undertaker, and Kane saves him, Heidenrich looks 6'7 range with Snitsky.

Editor RobI see Corbin claimed 6ft 8, but I've not paid as much attention to him, I may try to have a look.

Not to be superficial, but his picture could come up in the dictionary along with the word brute. He has a mean looking facial structure in combination with his height and weight.

Kane is 6'7" plus the lifts 6'9" or 6'8" 3/4. at first look Gene looks 6'6" but in his later years around 08-09 he only looks 6'5". Not sure how tall he exactly is but he looked a little shorter than Kane in lifts, and a little taller than Randy Orton. So I guess he is around 6'6".

6ft6 is fair. Closer to his billed height (and his claim) than most guys the WWE put at 6ft7. Most of them are like 6ft4!
