Guys! Check out on youtube "Hulk Hogan Vs. Kevin Nash. WCW Road Wild 1999. Part 2"
The Commentrator himself said that Nash is 2-3 inches taller than the Hulk. Hulk is not more than 6-4.5. Some claim that he is not above 6-3.
Also in another video with Scott Hall and Nash on Youtube "The Outsiders Debut The Great American Bash 96". Nash does not appear to be more than 3 inches taller than Scott Hall.
Thanks!
Joey says on 1/Sep/10
Anyone notice how Scott Hall looked like Austins height when he and nash/hogan came to the wwe? Or was he slouching?? Because he certainly did not look tall anymore. Even the Rock looked taller than him and the rock is around 6'3 and looked taller than Hall in those scenes. Alok says on 30/Aug/10
Scott was 6'5" Daman says on 29/Aug/10
How tall do you guys say Scott Hall was? swarupb says on 27/Aug/10
KaneFan, Kane can never be 6.9 because hes shorter than Nash. I agree with Sid's comments that Nash might be around 1.5 inches over Kane. If we assume Kane to be 6.9, then Nash has to be 6.10 to 6.10 and 1/2 inches. Which he is not because there was considerable height difference between Nash and Big Show. Then Big Show has to be well over 7.2!!! The Big Show is actually 6.11 inches. Here we have to calculate Kanes and Nash's height keeping BigShows Height as milestone. Then the whole picture becomes clear by itself. And if Kane is 6.9 then why was he billed at 6.7 when he was Yankem some years back!!!! swarupb says on 27/Aug/10
Sid, Kane came to Mumbai India and gave press conference in Oberoi mall at Mumbai some months back. He was a guest to Bollywood Actor Akshay Kumar. Check out on the net on Google as "Kane in India" and you will find it. I saw him in Mumbai. Sid says on 26/Aug/10
Heres Glenn as disel 2 with kevin nash side to side, glenn's head is tilted to the side, if someone can straighten glenn's head out, we can determine how many inches short he is to kevin nash, i'd say 1'5 inches click here Click Here Sid says on 26/Aug/10
swarupb Your lying swining cause you said on the kane thread you saw him in india now in mumbai..quit lying swarupb says on 26/Aug/10
Kevin Nash 6.9 or 6.10 is impossible because hes much less than big show at 6.11. If we say Nash is 6.9 or 6.10 then we have to settle down for Big Show at well above 7 because theres a considerable height difference between the two. Wrestlers like Nash, Kane and Undertaker do not come in Giant category but are relatively tall wrestlers as compared to others. KaneFan says on 26/Aug/10
swarb, that's impossible... Kane is 6'9 at the least The Ben says on 26/Aug/10
A strong 6'9.. Nearer 6'10 than 6'9. swarupb says on 25/Aug/10
I saw Kane in Mumbai, he appeared 2 inches shorter than my classmate who's 6.8 on basketball field. I know that all wrestlers exaggerate their heights and weights. I also saw in one video that Kevin Nash heeled himself still could not reach the Big Shows nose tip to provoke him. And I can bet my money that the Giant Big Show is not over 6.11. So Kevin has to be not more than 6.7. Crush came to India and was not more than 6.3-4 inches. I saw it myself. Kevin Nash' strong personality with long hair,dark outfit and well maintained V shaped physique gives him a taller image than the other hefty wrestlers. popo says on 22/Aug/10
Big Show is 2.13cm sure (you can see near 2.16cm shaquille)
Khali is 2.15cm and wears boots taller (I think Khali barefoot is like Pau Gasol)
Kevin Nash is 2.07cm
is my point of view VerveFan says on 20/Aug/10
holy ****... :D ez e says on 17/Aug/10
Kevin Nash - 6'8.5... Kane - 6'8.25... Undertaker 6'8... Alex2 says on 12/Aug/10
Id be VERY surprised id Nash is anything under 6'9.25" today imo. Clay says on 11/Aug/10
Haha Nash 6'7. swarupb says on 10/Aug/10
i do know the fact that in world wrestling, all wrestlers hype their heights. khali says he's 7.3. but actually hes 7.1 inch.the big show is 2 inches shorter so hes 6.11. kevin nash is 4 inches shorter than bigshow. so hes not more than 6.7. this is bitter truth. dan says on 8/Aug/10
At Wrestlemedia Undertaker is 6cm under Nash, I think Nash is 6ft 10
And Crush at his battle vs Undertaker was 4cm shorter. Crush was 6ft 6 Alex2 says on 7/Aug/10

alex2, the ncaa (basketball) listed morgan and kane 2 inches apart, that in itself tells us something
Morgan - 6'9"
Kane - 6'7"
In your dreams buddy. Vegas says on 6/Aug/10
speaking of morgan here is a video of him prior to joining the wwe, he claims to stand 6'10 and weigh 335lb, the 330 figure is believable, it gives you an idea how 330 sits on a guy as tall as morgan, morgan looks to have dropped at least 50-60lb since this Click Here Danimal says on 5/Aug/10

Kevin Nash is 6'8.5 to 6'9.. Kane is 6'8.5.. There is not that much difference between them.. Nash in ring gear is probably 6'10.. Kane with his lifts is 6'10 as well.. Vegas says on 4/Aug/10
alex2, the ncaa (basketball) listed morgan and kane 2 inches apart, that in itself tells us something dicksock says on 2/Aug/10
Nash in his prime was no taller than Tyler Mane and he was at least 3" shorter than Paul Wight. Nash is about 6'9" MAYBE 6'9.5". Sid is 6'7 and Hall is 6'5". Kane is 6'7.5" and Morgan is 6'9" MAX. Alex2 says on 2/Aug/10
LOL No way is Morgan 1" taller than kane. Jackie Knife says on 31/Jul/10
great work, red.
speaking of difference between kevin and kane - here's their match that happened back in 1996. i think there's clear 1,5 or maybe even 2 inches between them. of course we don't have any face off here but it's easy to see that kev is much more massive and still taller than jacobs. in 96 nash could be at his peak - 6'10", and glenn didn't wear his legendary more-than-huge boots
Click Here Supermanfan380 says on 31/Jul/10
The guys look very close in height, and IMHO are too close to call "for sure". Yes you can find a pick or two where Nash seems to have a slight advantage, If more TNA episodes were uploaded online you could find some where Morgan looks a pinch taller too. With two guys that close in height, little things like being a bit closer to the camera can play tricks with perspective. Its really hard to judge exact height from in wrestling ring photos. Unless someone is grossly shorter than claimed. Say you have two guys listed at 6'4", but one of them is only up to the other guys nose. Well, then there is an obvious problem. When you are counting pixels to estimate a guy within half and inch, 0.5", then we are trying to estimate too far into a certain margin or error. I'm the kind of fan who will generally take a Wrestler/Actor's word for it, giving them the benefit of the doubt (we are taller in the morning after all) unless I see good evidence they are grossly shorter than claimed in a good setting for estimating height. Nash says he is 6'10", and I assume that he means when he was in his Prime. Likely he has not been measured in a long time and does not put nearly as much thought into exactly how tall he is as fans do on this site. He just knows he is taller than 99.99% of humans that have ever lived, and that is about it. Same for Morgan, and even Kane likely does not feel short around the other two, given that 2" is not a huge difference in height, and that would be the max difference with all 3 of those guys. Red says on 30/Jul/10
Thanks Vegas, I have that too, but I wasn´t sure about Morgans posture ( looks like he is slightly tip toeing)
Anyway, how about that Click Here
Nash 6´9.5" barefoot, 6´10.5" ring gear
Morgan 6´8.75" barefoot, 6´10" ring gear
Kane 6´7.75" barefoot, 6´9.5" ring gear
Like I said, give or take a quater inch Vegas says on 30/Jul/10
here is a another for your collage red Click Here
glen jacobs isn't 6'8, if jacobs is within half an inch of morgan barefoot i will eat this keyboard Red says on 29/Jul/10
Click Here
Nash next to Kane looks like the difference between Nash and Matt Morgan.
Nash should be 6´10.5" in his boots, means Morgan and Kane are slightly under 6´10" in their boots.
No doubt about Kane has the bigger boots , so the difference between Kane and Morgan is Kane´s boot-advantage.
Nash 6´9.5"
Morgan 6´8.5"
Kane 6´8"

I saw a vid, Nash in front of Big Show face to face, Big Show was just 6cm taller
2.13 - 6= 2.07cm for Nash Joe says on 25/Jul/10
i don't think i could handly being that tall! he must have a lot of issues with his health due to his career and size. i think he was easily 6'10 peak and is easily 6'9 now. possibly more. anonymous says on 24/Jul/10

can i upgrade myself to 6'1 seeing as rob has mysterio at 5'4 :D Red says on 22/Jul/10
Alex2 says on 21/Jul/10
Would it be safe to out Nash at 6'10 peak?
That´s the point. I think he was close to 6´10"´, maybe 6´10" right out of bed.
But 6´9" is to low, Rob has the Hulkster at 6´6"peak so judging Nash like this would bring him the 6´10" Alex2 says on 21/Jul/10
Would it be safe to out Nash at 6'10 peak? Red says on 21/Jul/10
Vegas says on 21/Jul/10
everything i said is correct red,
LOL let me bring you down to earth my lord.
nash does have slight camera angle, notice the ropes
look again at your pic with a free mind and think about the ropes again, its not necessary a camera tilt. If the camera comes from the left the ropes would look like this and Morgan whould be closer to the cam than Nash.
so now you are saying morgan is kanes heights???, believe me morgan is taller than kane and he measured up better to wight too, there is a morgan/wight staredown from 2005 where he measure up to wight very well and having met both on numerous occasions there isn't much between em, morgans boots Click Here
Don´t tell me that´s a normal boot in your pic, it´s really chunky and way to high in the middle.
think the problem is here that people want nash to be 6'10, its clear with kareem, morgan, mane and wight he was never that tall barefoot, red show me evidence that nash was 1.75 inches taller than tyler mane...
I don´t have him at 6´10":
Nash peak 6´9.5"-6´9.75" today 6´9"-6´9.25"
Morgan today 6´8.5"-6´8.75"
Mane peak 6´8.5"
Morgan is max. 1 inch taller than Kane if both are barefoot. Vegas says on 21/Jul/10
everything i said is correct red, nash does have slight camera angle, notice the ropes Click Here i dont need silly excuses, i have been ringside for two shows when these two guys were standing side by side in early 2008 both in dress-shoes, they were the same height
why do you keep mentioning peak height for guys still at peak btw, that morgan and akebono photo is from 2004-05

Vegas says on 19/Jul/10
red; you think akebono and morgan are the same height??
For peak height it would be close, today I think Morgan is 0.5" taller.
--that one photo doesn´t show the true difference, we can´t see their footwear or stance. It´s possible Morgan was tip-toeing (just a guess), I really think Akebono was barefoot and Morgan in 1.25" wrestling boots.
morgan and nash are same height in that video, either is taller depending on who has the high camera angle (mostly nash, who also has a slight camera angle advantage too) Click Here you can see here from this fan photo that indeed nash and morgan were not in line at one point Click Here
aaaaaaaah, don´t come with silly excuses, it´s clear to see that old Nash is still the taller man.
morgans boots are not bigger either both are in similiar type boots, morgan measured up to big show in 2003 and 2005 exactly like nash did, both measured up to big show better than akebono, imo neither nash nor morgan are over 6'9 (despite both being listed at 6'10 in ncaa basketball)
For sure their footwear is not the same Click Here
Nash measured up better next to Big Show, Morgan measured up to Big Show like Kane (not the 2inch+ monsterbootet Kane) did. Red says on 20/Jul/10
Alex2 says on 19/Jul/10
In all fairness, I think they look very close in height, with Nash maybe 0.5" advantage but no way is there an inch there Red mate.
It´s not a full inch, more like 0.75" ( close to an inch imo) max in the beginning, later 0.5" and even with worse neck posture Nash was still a tad taller.
Nash peak 6´9.5"-6´9.75" today 6´9"-6´9.25"
Morgan today 6´8.5"-6´8.75" Alex2 says on 19/Jul/10
Morgan = 6'8.5 Nash = 6'9
or
Morgan =6'8 Nash= 6'9.5 Alex2 says on 19/Jul/10

I think Kevin Nash is 6ft 9 1/2 barefoot, and same height for Nathan Jones. And Nash boots have 1/2 inch more, then Big Show is only 2 inches over Nash Vegas says on 19/Jul/10

-Wrong-
No, you're wrong. What are you referencing anyway? They have been in the ring together a number of times. All the times I have seen the two together on TNA, Morgan seemed at least as tall as Nash, if not an inch taller. What is "peak Morgan?" He is still young. I think right now Morgan could easily be the 6'10" he claims, and that Nash may have been 6'10" in his prime.
Well supermorganfan380, here is my proof:
6:20 onwards Nash is close to an inch taller and Morgan is in chunky boots.
Click Here
I thought for a long time that Nash was a legit 6´10" but Big Show had to much height on him in all staredowns and Nash wasn´t 2 inches taller than 6´8" Tyler Mane.
Now prove me wrong! Red says on 19/Jul/10
Alex2 says on 15/Jul/10
Morgan is still peak btw, so Nash is still hovering around 6'9 today.

Nash may not have been a solid 6"10, but he was a very solid 6"9 at the upper end, and still is today given that he's still taller than Matt Morgan. --
He did not look any taller than Morgan to me. I'd say if anything Morgan had a pinch on Nash. Well, Nash may have been as tall/taller in his prime, but he did not look any taller than Morgan to me, at least not currently. Steve says on 30/Jun/10
Im surprised how much height Kareem has over Kevin Nash, it looks at least 4 inches but more like 5 inches. Also Kevin doesnt look any taller than Tyler Mane at all in their tag team matches. Alex2 says on 27/Jun/10
Matt Morgan is a legit 6'9 isnt he? Nash looks a tad taller. anonymous says on 23/Jun/10
was described as "6'10" at the 1993 summerslam ppv by vince mcmahon. that is his height and possibly a tad under. miko says on 21/Jun/10
Nash may not have been a solid 6"10, but he was a very solid 6"9 at the upper end, and still is today given that he's still taller than Matt Morgan.
I certainly believe he may have seen 6"10 out of bed though.
Probably 6"9.5/6"9.75 at his peak and might have lost a fraction from his peak, but nothing noticable. Vegas says on 20/Jun/10
alex2, kareem and nash in 1994 Click Here
kareem was not taller than 7'2 despite vince trying to pass him off as 7'4, here is kareem being measured at 7'1.65 at age 22 Click Here

alex he was 5 inches shorter than kareem in 1994, if he was 6'10 it was before his wrestling days, he measures up the exact same way to hall and 37 year old sean waltman today as he did in 1994 Alex2 says on 18/Jun/10
6'10 nothing more nothing less peak, 6'9 today is spot on IMO. Justin Bailey says on 11/Jun/10
Well kev was huge! but lol if he is 6'11'', then that makes tyler mane 6'11'', 7ft easy. LMBO! prolly the same person using different names. I said kev was every bit of 6'10'', but 6'11''? gimme a break! Nick says on 6/Jun/10
Sid Vicious is legit 6'9. At the first WWE In Your House PPV, Nash and Sid wrestled and in the beginning when they faced off, you could clearly see Nash was 1.5 inches taller than Sid. So Kevin Nash is 6'10.5 Bigfatguysowhat says on 25/May/10
I believe Nash is about 6'11". I'm 6'10" and when I seen Nash in St.Louis he had about 1 inch on me. blanco says on 22/May/10
Kane and Nash are both 6'11" barefoot. I saw them standing next to each other playing volleyball on south miami beach. my friend and i are 6 feet and we beat them. Vegas says on 10/May/10

Anonymous no i didn't meet kane i only met abyss,undertaker,kevin nash,hulk hogan and carlito Justin Bailey says on 8/May/10
Thanks Danimal.
I have seen kevin nash before. at the brushfork armory in 2005 right here in southern wv. I was in the isle, He gave me the wolfpac/cliq sign. Im 5'11'' on the dot and I was in flip flops. so Im guessing that I stood right under his chin. I think he had roughly 11 inches on me.
Ill tell you what though, he was a royal prick that night!
but probably the tallest guy ive seen personally.
I also see tna fevers super giant listings.
Id say giant gonzalez was honestly between 7'6''-7'8''. Ive seen ONE 7'8'' listing in the mid 90s, a 7'6'' in the world record book, and was mostly billed 7'7''. so he easily got away with 8ft.
Khali is shaqs height there tna. 7'1'', roughly 7'2'' in boots.
big show is about 6'11.75''-7ft. I believe at one time he was 7'1''.
here are my listings for the gentlemen who are taller than taker by one or two shades, except abyss. lol
Kevin Nash I would give somewhere around the northern tip of 6'9'' today, definately 6'10'' or a shade over back in the day.
abyss LOL having about 3-4 on sting, I would give he a good 6'5.25''-6'5.5''.
Nathan Jones I would give he 6'9'' on the dot, as well as matt morgan. Kane I would give a legit 6'7.5'' listing today. taker I would give a 6'7.25''-6'7.5'' listing today. What do you think danimal? Anonymous says on 7/May/10
edi B.s your saying nash was only 6'9'5 your 6'7'5. Did you meet kane?? edi says on 6/May/10
i'm 6'7.5 and i met abyss in 2008 he was 2.5 inches shorter then me and i met taker in 1997 he was 1.25 inches tall then me and then met taker in 2009 he was same height as me and i met kevin nash in 1999 he was about 2.5 inches tall then me
Abyss 6'5
Taker 6'7.5 peak 6'8.75
nash 6'10 Mr. E says on 30/Apr/10
Gotta agree with Danimal on this one. I think Nash is a shade taller than Morgan, although I think Nash was once 6'10", I think he's closer to 6'9" now. Taker is strange one because he measures well next to "tall" guys, but often times he looks like a 6'6" guy. (When in fact he is obviously taller than that.) Maybe it's the big forehead, but he just doesn't "tower" people like a near 6'8" guy should. Posture? I don't know. I was kind of surprised with that Sid/Hall shot. No footwear was shown, but Sid didn't have much on a 6'4"-6'5" Scott Hall. Danimal says on 28/Apr/10
Justin Bailey says on 27/Apr/10
Abyss isnt as tall as taker I can tell you that.
Not many of the giants are. kevin nash, nathan jones, and matt morgan all have about the same height difference over taker. kane maybe a half an inch taller, maybe! but i seriously believe that taker is taller than kane. taker looked taller next to goldust than kane did in normal boots. and as far as the atrain, I believe atrain is about an inch shorter than taker with normal boots. i think rob has all the guys dead on. maybe sid is 6'7 in his prime. but taker is about 6'7.5''-6'8''. I think tna fever is trying to make everyone mad and get under their skin. abyss wasnt much taller than sting. LOL tna I believe is half blind. Now Khali appears to have about 5 inches on taker and big show may have 3.75-4 on taker. end of story
Very logical and UNBIASED post. I agree with you, but I do believe Taker lost height in the last decade. Eric says on 27/Apr/10
Nash is around 6'9", was 6'10". Wight about 6'11.5", was 7'1". Kane and taker are around 6'7" each. Hall and Sid are around 6'5" or 6'6".
I was supposed to be around 6'10", but my pituitart gland shutdown after it exploded in August 1996 before my 15th birthday. I am 5'9" barefoot, 5'10" at my peak, two years ago. Justin Bailey says on 27/Apr/10

test was shorter than abyss eric, there wasn't much in it but test was definitely shorter side by side, i disagree that half the wwe roster are taller than abyss, i met the whole SD roster sans jericho, kane and khali in november and only taker is over 6'4, drew mcintyre is next tallest and goldust was disappointingly shorter than i expected eric 1 says on 9/Apr/10
WOW TnA your out of control and a hugeeeeee TNA Fan BOy. HOw can you actually say Abyss is taller then Taker and kane. Taker and kane are 6ft8 and Abyss is no more then 6ft4.5 6ft5 tops.

a 6ft kurt angle is laughable, that would result in basically a 6'3 cena, fast forward to 7mins 20 and tell me cena and angle are the same height lol Click Here
Cena looks 3.25"-3.5" inches taller and their footwear is very close.
So if Angle is 5´10", Cena would come out at 6´1.25"-6´1.5" and that´s about an inch to tall.
Cena 6´0.5"peak and today
Angle 5´9.5"
Michaels 5´11" peak 5´10.5" today
HHH 6´2"
Nash 6´9.5" peak 6´9" today
Sid 6´7" peak 6´6.25" today

I maybe a bit overgenerious with Kurt Angle's height, I will put him down to 6'0. I think HBK is around 5'10 these days, taker seems to have 8 inches on him at WM.
Abyss looks to have 2-3 inches on 6'4 hogan, so I think Abyss is a 6'7 man if his posture is fully upright.
A peak Sid was indeed taller than a peak Hogan, 6'6.5 vs 6'4.5 - and that video shows it.
Congrats. You've just proved you have no clue what you're talking about. We have a pic of Angle next to real 6'0-6'0.25 Alex (posts here regularly) and Kurt is AT LEAST 2 inches shorter. Sid says on 7/Apr/10

Actually TNA, you're a quickly becoming the laughing stock of this site for the wretlers pages. You had Kurt Angle at 6'2 and HHH at 6'1 (if im not mistaken, if I am then sorry). You're way off on Taker and Kane. Im not a ''fanboy'' of them, I just have to simply disagree with your height assesments. Vegas says on 5/Apr/10
tna you do realise that sid was taller next to a peak hogan in 1991-92 Click Here
than abyss is next to nearly 60 year old hogan today Click Here
most of us are in agreement that hogan has lost height since 1991 so thats even worse news for your 6'7 abyss and 6'6 sid estimate, we know sid and taker were roughly the same height in the early/mid 1990s and i don't know where you are getting kevin nash 4+ inches taller than sid, care to post evidence of said 4+ inches
btw tna do you still think angle is 2 inches taller than hbk, 1 inch taller than cena and within an inch of jbl lol........... ;) tna_fever says on 4/Apr/10
Robby, ur height are so wrong I dont know where to begin! But you are entitled to ur own opinion.
I'd still say Abyss is a lil taller than both taker and kane, they are way overbilled and actually dwarfed against real big men in the ring such as Nash, Show and Khali.
Today I dont see Sid being more than 6'5, recent pics show 6'5 scott hall being same in height as him.
Peace Robby says on 1/Apr/10
TNA_Fever your height figures are as bad as TNA's ratings right now. Taker had Scott Hall by 3" in the late 80's and later on in the WWF. Abyss is NOT taller then Sid, Taker or Kane. he is barely taller then present day Hogan.
Prime Heights in my opinion
Big Show 7'0"
Kevin Nash 6'10"
Matt Morgan 6'9"
Undertaker/Kane 6'8ish"
Sid 6'7"
Abyss 6'5"
Scott Hall 6'5"

Vegas in that video show looked to have only 2 inches on nash there..I do believe nash was 6'10 there..now 6'9"
Many believe Big show/Paul Wight was atleast 7 ft at that time, and he only had 1-2 inches on Nash. There is another video somewhere when the NWO attack Rick Flare, both Nash and Big show wander around the ring but look very close in height there also. tna_fever says on 19/Mar/10

It appears as though Nash has only lost about .5". I think this is due to the fact that he isn't lugging around 500 pounds like Big Show. Nash is only around 300 pounds and for a man who is at least 6'9" and has muscle, that is quite good. Anonymous says on 16/Mar/10

Vegas says on 13/Mar/10
even on his tip-toes hall was still 2-3 inches shorter than nash last monday night Click Here
nashs posture is really good for someone 50 years old and a string of knee operations, if nash has lost height (as least since 96) then hall must have too and waltman as well
I am really suprised at how good Nash's posture was on TNA on Monday. He looked to hav like 5-6 inches on Hall and when Hall was tip toeing up he could only reduce it to 2"-3" ( baring in mind what an inch looks like on men this big, prolly closer to 3" ) . I can gain around 3" - 4" when I tip toe but who nows what Hall can gain.
Funnily enough, I was watching TNA for this episode and my friends who arnt into guessing heights all commented on how big Nash is. I think Nash has lost around 0.5" - 0.75" , I dont think Pac and Hall have lost any, I'm unaware of any operations or serious injuries they may have had. I think the root of Nash problem with his loss is the accelerated loss in big heavy men due to wear and tear on the spine, neck and of course, he tore up a leg muscle pretty bad and has issues with straightening his leg or so has been said ( I know this is likely but I dont know if we can say this is definetly the case ) shame he is wearing loose pants or we could see how straight his leg is. He looks like he is still a good 6'9" at least in that sequence. Anyone know Eric Young's height ? I'd guess 5'10" ish ? Vegas says on 13/Mar/10

Morgan looks pretty tall to me. In his interview for tough enough 2 he said 6'9" or 6'10" when they asked him. He looks about eye to eye with Nash, sometimes a bit taller, but he may have thicker boots.
I'd say about 6'9" is fine for Nash current, and 6'10" in his prime is fair, if you compare him to Morgan. Clay says on 27/Feb/10
It looked like Shaq had Show by at least 2 inches to me on TV too but really it was more like 1.5. Big Show is a little over 6'11'' today, Nash isnt his height. Annoyed says on 26/Feb/10
Sorry, Shaq has about 1.5" on Big Show nowadays. Big show now has 2" on Nash ( 3 back in the day ) . so THAT makes Big show 6'11.5" - and Nash around 6'9" - 6'9.5" .
I truly believe Nash is 6'9" flat now. I believe he was 6'10" in the morning AT HIS PEAK. Vegas says on 26/Feb/10

that the first time i have seen that video JT, i was at an impact where morgan (in dress-shoes) stood next to nash (in ring-gear), there didn't seem to be an inch in it to me, similiar to that video, they were very close. my brother has a ton of photos from that show, if there is a good one in there will upload Patrick says on 23/Feb/10
Cool to see this guy is on the site. I always thought he was 6’10 but 6’9 is probably right. Nash and Hall are some of my favorite wrestlers.

I think TNA have tried to push Morgan with overbilling his height, he's only 6'7.5, so a 6'9 billing would have been better JT says on 23/Feb/10
They are very close in height, Vegas, but I think Nash would edge out Morgan by up to 1 inch in comparable footwear. Most of the difference may come from Nash simply having a larger head. Vegas says on 23/Feb/10

I think depending on the shot/angle, Morgan and Nash are too close to call. I've seen shots of Nash looking maybe an inch taller and I've seen shots of Morgan looking taller, but in my mind, he has much thicker boots. I'd give both 6'9" and some change. Morgan does need his own site. Is Ed Too Tall Jones really "Too Tall"? Vegas says on 22/Feb/10

jk, wrestlers always inflate their heights and weights, everyone knows that.
6'9" is fair, he is def more than 6'7", but not 6'10".
He looks right around one foot taller than Mamum. supermanfan380 says on 18/Feb/10
jk, his own website lists him at 6'10".
Back when he first started wrestling he was billed at 6'10", and even if that were not padded, I doubt they would subtract from his real height. tna_fever says on 18/Feb/10
Nash when he was Diesel had over 4 inches on Sid and Taker, and had a solid 50lbs on them too. I'll say he was 6'11 at the time, while sid and taker were 6'6 max, Nash dwarfed taker at WM12.
When he joined WCW, he was close to Giant/Big show in height, so much that The Giant had to wear 3 inch lifts to keep his 7'4 billing.
When he joined TNA, clearly much older and lose some height, yet stood casually and easily had over an inch on Matt Morgan who was standing straight and was billed at 7ft jk says on 14/Feb/10
why you people always reduce height of wrestlers. Last time i checked kevin nash was listed as 6 '10" now he has been listed as 6 '9". I myself saw kevin nash personally. I am 6 '4" , he was towering me at least by 7 inches. So, i think he is around 6 '11" Annoyed says on 12/Feb/10
here are some intersting pics of Nash that really show his size :
Nash next to 6'0" Christian : Click Here
Nash leaning in and slouching next to Konan : Click Here
Nash standing up to big show from decent angle, not great, but decent : Click Here
Nash looking really tall with some people : Click Here
Nash once again looking giant : Click Here ( looks like a 7 footer here although I know he isn't )
with 6'5" claimed ( although I believe 6'4" tops 6'3" at the least ) DDP, who still only comes up to the eyes of a leaning and slouching Nash Click Here
I know footwear etc isn't there but anyone who remotely knows nash knows he tends to have the flattest footwear out of all the big men, especially out of the ring, but anyway this is not evidence for a particular height, just a few pictures to show the real scale of this man, he is very very tall. He shows it in the pic with Manum. Here is my guestimate for Nash:
Peak : 6'10" morning, 6'9.25" evening
Current: 6'9.5" morning, 6'8.75" evening.
Incidentally I think both Kane and Undertaker are around the 6'8" mark, I dont buy this 6'7" talk OR ESPECIALLY the Taker is 6'6" talk !
Nash was 1.5" - 2" bigger than Taker at their peaks and was 3" shorter than the tallest Big Show ever was ( which I think was 7'0.5" or thereabouts ).

Vegas, it looks like 5inches in that vid´, but I think it´s a weird angle and Kareems head is closer to the camera.
Do you have any information about their footwear in that vid?

Hey, you guys should check out this video on youtube, "Scott Hall Shoot Interview on Sid Vicious, Eric Bischoff, Hulk Hogan & TNA's 6 Sided Ring"
Listen closely at about 5:39 into the video...Trust me Nick says on 20/Oct/09
I'd give Nash a legit 6'10'' at his peak. He dwarfed the Undertaker during their PPV match in the 90s.
Nowadays, I'd say 6'9'' or a smidge under. He doesn't quite tower over the competition like he used to, although he's the tallest man in TNA. He and Morgan are VERY close IMO - a recent facedown between them favoured Nash, but in an older nose-to-nose, Morgan was taller - this was when he was Cornette's enforcer though and was likely wearing higher shoes. Putting aside the specifics of footwear, that estimate seems fair as well, if we assume Mick Foley and Booker T are about 6'2'' and Abyss is 6'4''-6'5''.
Matt Morgan actually looked slightly shorter than Nathan Jones IMO although much more ripped. I agree that Jones looked roughly the same height as Undertaker during his first WWE run but oddly he looked taller during the second - different footwear, perhaps? Morgan looks an inch or two taller than Taker to me.
Rock's 6'4'' legit IMO.
I find it hard to buy Luger at 6'3'', despite his official football listings - he always towered over Sting, who can't be less than 6'2''.
Jake Roberts was 6'4'' at his peak.
Rick Rude outright said before he died that he was 6'4'' and Henning was 6'2''
Brian 'Crush' Adams was 6'5'' at best.
I'm surprised we haven't seen an entry of his own for Robert 'Kurgan' Mailet, given his recent publicity in accidentally smacking Robert Downey Jr. on the set of the new Sherlock Holmes movie. Kurgan's one of the few recent true giants in wrestling I haven't seen discussed much around here. He was usually billed at either 7'0'' or 6'10'' but 'Power Slam' magazine claimed both were huge exaggerations. Tough to get a true gauge on Kurgan as you didn't see him face off with guys the size of Kane or Undertaker often. He was paired with the 7'2'' legit Paolo 'Giant' Silva but usually measured up fairly well against him. He also dwarfed the 6'5'' John 'Golga/Earthquake' Tenta, Brian Adams and Brian 'Chainz' Lee, who was probably 6'4'' or so.
I think 6'4'' for the Big Boss Man is very fair. Daii says on 17/Oct/09
Does look a solid 6'8-9 tbh. Anything over 6'6 is hard to judge with a 5'8 person next to them. HUGE is a good description lol. Annoyed says on 17/Oct/09
Peak - Morning: 6'10" Evening: 6'9.25"
Current - Morning : 6'9.75" Evening: 6'9" Matthiew_- says on 15/Oct/09
Cut 2 inches to almost everyone's listing and you are right on the spot ( especially for the taller ones ) ...
Khali 7'3 -- 7'1
Big Show maybe the only one who isn't exaggerated that much , but I think he lost height since WCW days , he looked 7'1 to me back then .
Kane 7' -- 6'10 but with 2inches platforms , 6'8 in fact
Nash 7' -- 6'10
Taker 6'10.5 -- 6'8.5 (prime ) nowadays 6'7.5ish
Sid 6'9.5 -- 6'7.5
Hogan 6'8 -- 6'6 (prime , nowaday 6'4ish )
Brock 6'4 -- 6'2
Rock 6'5 -- 6'3
Batista 6'5 -- 6'3
Razor Ramon ( Hall )6'7 -- 6'5
Vader 6'5 -- 6'3
Earthquake 6'7 -- 6'5.5
Hunter HH 6'4 -- 6'2
Mabel 6'8.5 -- 6'6.5
etc the list is almost endless , consensus should be acknlowdging that in most cases their heights are overbilled by 2 inches , save the smaller ones ( it would be too evident ) and the tallest like Gonzalez ( billed 8' but the guy being 7'6+ they can go with it ) ... Annoyed says on 13/Oct/09
at 2:42 in the nash/bigshow which is the closest they come to a staredown at a decent angle, it looks as though the difference is around 2". BUT this is a quick shot at a poor angle and other angles make Show look 1" taller while others make him look 3" taller. I personally think in this particular video and on this particular night, Big show was standing a clean and comfortable 7'0" - 7'0.5" , Nash looking about 6'10" - 6'9.5" . Danimal says on 12/Oct/09
Wow, what's happening to the quality of the posters on this page? Looks like the last few comments have been either typed up by 11 year old kids, or the overall IQ has decreased by about 50 points.
Steven, you cannot just state things are FACTS, unless they are facts.
Johnson, Nash was not 7'0". Vegas says on 12/Oct/09
nash 6'11 or 7ft??? nash was billed at 6'10 in wcw, you even hear the ring announcer claim it here, staredown 2mins 40 secs in and he is more than inch shorter than wight there Click Here
steven you cannot add, you say big show is 2.5 inches taller than matt morgan (which is correct) and then you say morgan is 6'8 and show is 7ft exact??? eh thats 4 inch difference, morgan 3 inches shorter than nash is fantasy land (try same height or nash about half an inch taller), morgan 2 inches shorter than taker is lol, takers 6'7, jones and morgan are same height Johnson says on 11/Oct/09
Kevin Nash & the Big Show has strunk in height now that there older. Back when Kevin Nash & Big show was in WCW. Big Show was 7 ft1 and Kevin Nash was 7ft Steven says on 11/Oct/09
BIg show is 1 inch taller than Kevin Nash(fact) Big show is 2.5 inches(fact) taller(fact) then Matt Morgan. Big show is 2 inches taller than Undertaker(fact) They say that Nathan Jones is 6 feet 10 in the movies he makes and in wrestling because he is. When he stands next to Undertaker there basically the same height. & Nash is taller than Taker for a fact. Kevin Nash is 6 ft 11. Big Show is 7ft exact. Matt Morgan is only 6ft8 or 6ft 8 and a half Clay says on 11/Oct/09
Khali next to Conan O'Brien was spot on the same as KAB next to Conan. drk says on 10/Oct/09
i'd like to see Khali face to face with Nash. He would probably have around 4" on him today. Big Show says on 8/Oct/09

Here are 2 caps of Nash and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar from a video I've recently received. This was shot during a American Sportscaster Association Awards ceremony in November 1994. Kareem looks about 4 inches taller. Vince McMahon of course claimed during the commentary that Kareem is 7'4" (because Nash was billed 7' at the time). We can't see any footwear though. Kareem is in tuxedo and is probably wearing dress shoes. Nash has a self-made tuxedo and could be wearing any shoewear. Anonymous says on 5/Oct/09
I've always thought Morgan looked a solid 6,9". Vegas says on 5/Oct/09
nash didn't appear to be 6'10 with 6'8 tyler mane or 6'5 bryan clarke, just watched loads of old hbk/nash videos, nash doesn't look 6'10 next to shawn in any of them
one thing for sure having met morgan and wight on numerous occasions since 2001, wight is not more than 3 inches taller than morgan, its probably only 2.5 inches between the two, first time i met wight outside wwe new york in 2001 now way did he look 5 inches taller than morgan (first time i met him in 2004), i don't buy that wight had lost any height by the summer of 2001 Danimal says on 3/Oct/09

I see Morgan at slightly over 6'8".
why not 6'10?? you think big show was 7'1 based on his ncaa listing??
Because Paul White ONCE looked to be damn close to 7'1" in his WCW days, but Matt Morgan doesn't look to be 6'10", the way Kevin Nash did. Nash appeared to be a barefoot 6'9.5"-6'10" and that was his NCAA listing. Big Show appeared to be 7'0.5"-7'1" barefoot in the WCW. Morgan seems to be 6'9.5"-6'10" in his shoes.

I see Morgan at slightly over 6'8". mike says on 23/Sep/09
looks more like a 3 inch difference to me between vader and sid,sid 6'8",vader 6'5" Vegas says on 23/Sep/09
having met them all, if morgan is 6'7 then both kane and taker are in the 6'5 range probably 6'5'5, i met morgan in sneakers and kane within minutes of each other in hilton hotel in NY in march 2004, morgan was listed at 6'10 in ncaa in 1996-97, its rare if ever a player is listed 3 inches more than his legit height in college ball Click Here Chaminade Silverswords paragraph Click Here mike says on 22/Sep/09
matt morgan imo doesn,t look 6'10" i,d give him 6'7". mike says on 12/Sep/09
nash as deisel had an easy 8-9 inches on vince. nash i believe was a legit 6'10". general93 says on 10/Sep/09
who where the the land of the giants was it tyler mane and nash?i watched baba and andre against them, baba was actually taller than them both not much it was 1991 i belive so andre was about 6'11" or so baba had to be 6'9" i seen an earlier photo where andre has close to 5" on baba maybe 4".nash was defo 6'10 i belive mane to be about 6'8" maybe 6'9".sid and taker at uk rampage92 at the start it appears sid to be taller i know at wm13 taker had 1" or so on sid.taker has to be 6'8.5" billed 6'10.5" sid may have been 6'8" he had a bit of height on 6'7" spivey.studd was also taller than spivey by a inch or so. mike says on 7/Sep/09
scott hall looked every bit of 6'5" to me. mrelectricity says on 6/Sep/09
supermanfan380 says on 5/Sep/09: If someone said 6'2", that would likely be within a 2" + or - margin or error.
Agreed. I'm about 5'11" which I supposed I can say 6 feet and get away with it. I would also think that after 6'6" maybe, you could try to over bill by three inches and get away with it...I still think that two is the most you could overbill realistically without insulting the intelligence of the fans. For example, it's tough to listen to JR on Smackdown and say Kane is 7 foot and Batista, who would grow an inch every show to 6'6" and be shorter than the 6'4" billed Orton. I was watching a WWE 24-7 roundtable on "giants" again listening to JR say Vader was 6'5" and Taker is 6'10" then at the same time say Nash is 6'10". (But JR loves Taker) They also implied Andre was 7'5" (talk about overbilling) IMO, I still don't think you could bill Nash, Taker, Sid, Matt Morgan, or Kane at 7 feet without exaggerating too many inches. supermanfan380 says on 5/Sep/09
general93, the situation with Henning is a very good example of a guy being billed grossly taller than he could have been. 6'6" is way out of tange for henning.
If someone said 6'2", that would likely be within a 2" + or - margin or error.
Calling Kane 6'10" may be incorrect, but its not a "gross" over estimation in that someone could really mistake him for that if they met him. JT says on 5/Sep/09
Mr. Perfect at 6'6" is almost as laughable as Andre at 7'4". Click Here ~6'5" Scott Hall had Perfect by an easy 4 inches in the mid-1980s. Danimal says on 5/Sep/09
Curt Henning was 6'1" and Rick Rude was 6'2": Click Here Danimal says on 5/Sep/09
general93 says on 5/Sep/09
mr perfect was measured 6'6" then was 6'3 then 6'2" prime curt hennig 6'6".vader was heavy so maybe 6'3-4" then.
WHAT???????????????????????????????????????????????? Curt Henning 6'6"? KID, do you even READ what you type??? Vegas says on 5/Sep/09
perfect at 6'6 is lol he was never even 6'2, what was scott hall aka razor ramon then 6'10, nash must have been hogans claimed 7'3 after all Click Here |
