All these wrestlers when you see them on TV are at their evening height I am pretty sure of
John said on 5/Sep/11
I've met Stone Cold Steve Austin at evening, and he was 6'0. I'm a strong 5'10.

But, remember. At NIGHT. Which means, he must be 6'1" at morning or 6'2".
James said on 4/Sep/11
He looked minimum 6'1 next too Dane Cook.
Legend said on 4/Sep/11
James says on 2/Sep/11
He can't be as low as 5'11.5 becuase he was taller than Dane Cook.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dane Cook is not that tall.
Alex said on 3/Sep/11
Austin could be 6'0.25 evening
James said on 2/Sep/11

Alex said on 2/Sep/11
I'd put Austin at 6'0.5 before 5'11.5 but yea he could maybe look that at times but usually not.
Legend said on 1/Sep/11
Sometimes Stone Cold looks 5'11.5 range. I'm not saying he is. But sometimes he does look it.
Legend said on 31/Aug/11
The Rock was never 6'3.
James said on 27/Aug/11
The Rock was at least 6'3
Terryman said on 26/Aug/11
James is Goldberg taller than Triple H in the Videos that were posted by Vegas?
Legend said on 26/Aug/11
The Rock is 6'2
James said on 25/Aug/11
Bill Goldberg 6'2.25 (189cm)
Rock Dwayne Johnson 6'3.5 (192cm) Peak.
Hansen said on 24/Aug/11
i think over mostly goldberg and the rock apear close in height 6ft2 both was listed 6ft4-6ft5 in WWE, SCSA always stand abit shorter than both. so 6ft1 is clear on the spot! ;)
James said on 23/Aug/11
goldberg is a strong 6'2 but his 6'4 listings were absolutely ridicolous.
Legend said on 22/Aug/11
It's still strange how he looked not much shorter than Kane. And does anyone know exactly why half his arm is extremely white in the picture?
Terryman said on 20/Aug/11
goldberg is in the 187-8cm Range not 188-9cm. Stone cold is dead on 1,84m
James said on 20/Aug/11
Goldberg is 188-189cm range not 189-190cm. Stone Cold does not look over 185cm at all in that pic with Goldberg.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 19/Aug/11
Looks 186-187cm range here with 6"1(185cm) Vince McMahon. If you look closely you'll see Austin is jerking his head slightly away from the camera Click Here 6"1.75(187cm) with 189-190cm Bill Goldberg, but Goldberg is bending his head slightly Click Here
Legend said on 18/Aug/11
@Alex Sorry for thinking you weren't 6 feet lol and you're right about the angles they can use.
James said on 18/Aug/11
oh yeah just noticed that dane cook was downgraded too 182cm but still austin looks 186cm next too him
James said on 18/Aug/11
With 192cm Dolph Lundgren Austin looks 187cm or 188cm Click Here look 187cm or 185cm with 183cm listed Dane Cook and 175cm Jason Stathem. Could cook be 182cm though? Click Here 186cm near 188cm Donald Trump. Was trump still 6'2 in 2007? Click Here with 190cm dave batista he can look 184cm but maybe 185cm since batista has slight hair advantage. does not look at all over 185cm though and has low of looking 184cm. Click Here can look anywehre from 184cm too 187cm range compared too those guys but he does not look 188cm.
Alex said on 17/Aug/11
Legend, there were times where Austin and Kane didn't look too far apart then at times Kane just towered over him by at least 7 inches. Also in WWE camera angles can make a big difference. 2 guys 7-8 inches apart with angles can look more 4 inches apart at times lol
Alex said on 17/Aug/11
Rock- 6'2 1/2 Brock- 6'2 Austin 6'0 1/2
Legend said on 17/Aug/11
He was strangely close to Kane's height in a match they had once. What I mean by that is that Kane didn't tower him at all. I remember because it was very strange to see that. I guess legit 6 foot guys can hang in there with anyone.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 16/Aug/11
6ft1.25(186cm) barefoot
6ft2.75(190cm) in wrestling boots

Pics to come soon!
James said on 15/Aug/11
6'1 barefoot and appearing 6'2 in wrestling boots.
Legend said on 15/Aug/11
He doesn't look more than 6 feet to me.
Hansen said on 15/Aug/11
SCSA bulky build give down illusion been 6ft. 6ft1 i truely believe it.
Danimal said on 15/Aug/11
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 12/Aug/11
185cm at least. He usually appeared 1.5-2in shorter than The Rock on WWF back in the day.
6ft1.25 or even 6ft1.5 are vague possibilities. The guy might even scrape 188cm first thing out of bed.

6'0" guy.
James said on 13/Aug/11
Clay says on 12/Aug/11
James - I thought the Rock was slightly taller than Lesnar, always have. Weak 6'3 for the Rock, or hell even solid 6'3 and strong 6'2 for Lesnar.

Alex says on 12/Aug/11
Rock was no more than an inch taller than Lesnar and at times it looked a bit less than an inch

Clay why do you think the rock might be a weak 6'3 when he can appear too have 1 inch on Lesner?
Desiboy said on 12/Aug/11
I think stone cold is like 5'11'' but 6' with shoes on

James said on 12/Aug/11
With Mike Tyson i don't think he looked over 185cm but i know sometimes he could pull of looking slightly taller than Vince McMahon who may not be over the 6'1 mark anyway. but i think he only looked taller than vince cause of his wrestling boots.

With Sid Eudy as well he did actually look 6'2 (188cm) but then again maybe Sid is more like 6'6.75?

Nevermind the fact Lesnar has looked nothing but 6'2.25-6'2.5 barefoot in the UFC James, and on the NFL field in cleets as well.

As we know thats better evidence than what these wrestlers are standing at in their boots in the ring..

Fair enough i am just saying that at times there looked not much between Cena and Lesner. would you agree that the rock looked 6'3.5-6'4 next too Brock Lesner?
Clay said on 8/Aug/11
tell-em says on 8/Aug/11
whatchu talking about? i always had brock at a weak 6'2". he wakes and hits 6'2" and is about 6'1.5" during the day. lol. austin is 6'1". brock never looked a strong 6'2" in his life especially next to the rock or john cena or kurt angle.

Whatever. We're not far off anyways. At least we agree on Austin..

Terryman said on 7/Aug/11
184,5cm during the day-1,83.5m at night he is definately not 185cm as he was about 0,5in taller than Miz and dolf zigler who are both about 1,82m

2 inches between brock and austin doesn't make any sense. austin is 6'1" and brock is a weak 6'2". you have the rock at 6'2.75" when there is ATLEAST an inch between brock and roct. gosh you're stupid. you suck at math just like you suck at height gauging clay.

Changing your tune now eh? Now Brock is 6'2? lol. Austin a weak 6'1 at best, and Brock a strong 6'2'' is where it's at. Book it.
James said on 7/Aug/11
Alex maybe 6'4.75 (195cm) for test? LOL at 6'7.

I am kinda uncertain about Lesner being over 188cm?
Alex said on 6/Aug/11
James, also Test's height is uncertain too. Hes def not his 6'6 listing height. They even said he was 6'7 before too. I am not sure what he claims in height but I would guess he was 6'5 or at the lowest 6'4 1/2. He had over 2 inches on Brock.
Alex said on 6/Aug/11
Brock 6'2 and Austin about 6'0 1/2 could be very likely be dead on.
James said on 5/Aug/11
Sometimes Brock Lesner had a VERY hard time looking 6'2.5 next too John Cena but then again next too Test he could pull of looking 189cm.

and yet you think brock is 6'2.5" thats freakin' hilarious.lol. thanks for proving my point.
Clay said on 4/Aug/11
tell-em says on 3/Aug/11
austin IS a hair shorter than brock. .5 inch or 1 inch is not a big gap. but you wouldn't understand that clay. rob should ban you for your awful height estimations. its embarrassing.

It's not a big gap, but I wreckon theres about 2 inches between them in the barefeet. You're the only sad-sack at the site who thinks there is only half an inch or so between them.

james, rock hasn't lost anything. get outta here with your ridiculous commenting. you're as bad as clay.

Thanks bud. Go ahead and take shots at people who aren't even in the conversation now why dont you.

You wanna talk about ridiculous how about you thinking that Austin is only a hair shorter than Brock Lesnar, now thats funny.
Clay said on 2/Aug/11
Danimal says on 2/Aug/11
6'0"

I dont know how you can break people's balls about giving the lowest possible heights and then come up with estimates like this yourself...
James said on 2/Aug/11
6'1 and maybe would measure at 6'2 in big wrestling boots in the 90's.
tell-em said on 1/Aug/11
you're close vegas, but nah. austin has a big head. i'm still stickin w/ 6'1 or 185cm.
Mathew said on 1/Aug/11
6'1" is good enough for Stone Cold. I believe it.
Vegas said on 31/Jul/11
tell-em i am 5'11 and i think austin is about 184cm
Terryman said on 31/Jul/11
1,84m peak 1,83.5cm now?

tell-em said on 29/Jul/11
vegas, how tall are you? and how tall do u think steve is?
James said on 28/Jul/11
the rock i think has not been so lucky cause he looks too have lost as a result of surgeries.... then again the rock is taller than stone cold steve austin so maybe that is why he is so prone too losing height?
Vegas said on 28/Jul/11
tell-em says on 27/Jul/11
the way you put it vegas, you make it seem as if he should have lost 2 inches.
________________

my point is if surgeries are really the main cause of so much shrinkage in wrestling (as a few on here claim) then why has austin not been affected, i don't think austins lost anything, if you look back at him early 1990s in wcw he looks right around 6ft or maybe a little taller and still looks that today

i have met steve a number of times since 2002 and he is taller than me
tell-em said on 27/Jul/11
well austin STILL looks 6'1". like i said, if he lost height, it had to be a few mm. the way you put it vegas, you make it seem as if he should have lost 2 inches.
hs2011 said on 23/Jul/11
Austin says that his neck is in better shape now than it has been in years, which is good to hear. He really was falling apart in 2003. He still looks ~6'1".
James said on 21/Jul/11
i don't get how he didn't lose hieght
Vegas said on 21/Jul/11
if anyone should have lost height it should have been austin, he has had both knees operated on a couple of times (he wore massive braces on both knees for the last 3 years of his run), had major back surgery and neck fusion surgery and of course was forced to retire at 39, the documentary mania of wrestlemania which was filmed in the days leading up to mania 19 really highlights how much his body was falling apart on him at that stage
tell-em said on 20/Jul/11
if he did lose height, it probably be 3 mm. a fraction is silly at 46. hes probly still 6'1". he looks it.
James said on 20/Jul/11
He did look 6'2 when he had a wrestling match against 6'7 Sid Eudy even though i don't think he was that tall.

maybe?
6ft.05 (184cm) today
6ft1 (185cm) peak
Alex said on 19/Jul/11
At 46 he could have def lost a fraction in height.
tell-em said on 19/Jul/11
he hasn't lost anything. and he isn't 50. hes 46. hes 6'1" then and now. the man has a huge crome dome. just look at it w/ mamun
Mathew said on 18/Jul/11
Alex says on 13/Jul/11
6'1 peak Austin I can agree with. Today he looks slightly shorter. 184cm I think he would be.

Yeah, he's a legit 6'1" back in his prime. I have no idea if he's lost a bit, he's gotta be pushing 50 now so it's possible he's down a fraction. He was usually billed as 6'2", occasionally even 6'3" I think although I'm not sure. Anyways, his 6'1" claim is pretty much bang on.
James said on 18/Jul/11
I don't think Austin is over 6'1
Legend said on 17/Jul/11
This guy has the perfect male height pretty much.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 15/Jul/11
Would 187cm out of bed be possible, Rob?
Terryman said on 14/Jul/11
austin barrely egded out 1,82m miz and dolf zigler,at best he was 0,5in taller but maybe their shoes were thicker than his running shoes!
Alex said on 13/Jul/11
6'1 peak Austin I can agree with. Today he looks slightly shorter. 184cm I think he would be.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 12/Jul/11
Rob, what are the chances of Austin being over 6ft1?
Editor Rob
he only claims 6ft 1, which I think is perfectly reasonable for him.
James said on 29/Jun/11
shocked to see DDP return.... but yeah that video proves that diamon dallas page is no less than 6'4
Vegas said on 29/Jun/11
yeah and next to kofi kingston he barely looked taller than i did
Big Show said on 28/Jun/11
Speaking of Booker T, yesterday on RAW he looked easily 3 inches shorter than Diamond Dallas Page. Page might be in cowboy boots, but still.

Sweep The Leg said on 26/Jun/11
he looks 6'1"... BUT I DONT KNOW WHY HE DOESNT LIE, OR HASNT BEEN UPGRADED ON HIS "BILLED HEIGHT" FOR WRESTLING 2 MORE INCHES LIKE THEY DO EVERYONE ELSE.
James said on 25/Jun/11
Yeah good chance JBL was 196cm peak
Terryman said on 23/Jun/11
Austin and JBl are solid proof that extensive neck and back surgery don't reduce that much in height! So:Austin 185cm peak 185cm today while JBL possibly 1,96m peak 1,94m today
James said on 22/Jun/11
Cena and Austin are around the same height
Mathew said on 21/Jun/11
Austin is a little taller than Cena, I believe, rather than the other way around.
Legend said on 20/Jun/11
He's 6 feet according to what I'm seeing in this picture.
Alex said on 19/Jun/11
Booker T at 6'3 is crazy. LOL

Clay, really Austin 6'0.5 at his lowest? I'm not arguing 6'0.5 but maybe its more his midday height and by night hes 6'0-6'0 1/4. Cena may be 6'0.5 evening.
James said on 19/Jun/11
6'3 for booker t? Now i have heard it all.
Mamun said on 19/Jun/11
Vegas , Booker is listed every where even on I M D B . COM at 6' 3" ! I am sure his Excellency King ROB wasn't touched by the Andre story and gave him the 6' 2" listing after some research .

Regards

SUPERMUN
Mathew said on 18/Jun/11
I always saw this guy as a legit 6'1". He is very close to Booker T in height.
Clay said on 18/Jun/11
Steve has on boots but he isn't standing as straight as Mamun either as he could care less about his height for the pic. I he did thats another CM gained at least.

Still I wouldn't go under a solid 6'0.5 evening for him.
Vegas said on 18/Jun/11
austin and booker were extremely close in height whenever the too were together on wwe tv back in the early 00s, not sure how mamun saw booker at 6'3, i think he probably gave him the extra 2 inches because he said nice things about andre :D
James said on 17/Jun/11
Vegas says on 16/Jun/11
James says on 15/Jun/11
Austin might have been 185cm in the 90's. He looks to have lost around 1 inch since then
________________

i don't think he has, he looks same height next to everyone recently, the rock at mania being the obvious one

wwe have now three nfl combine barefoot measured guys on their roster (at least that i know of and can find results), andy leavine was measured 6'4.75 barefoot at the combine Click Here andy with vince last week Click Here

Austins head looks higher than the NFL guys eye level so in comparison Austin looks 186cm or at worst 185cm........
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 16/Jun/11
Austin is just over 6ft1

I would say Austin is 6'0 and Cena is more like 6'0 1/2.

Austin is over 6'0 IMO. He's extremely close with Booker T next to amun at least.

i think taker has not lost much height as hogan yet.

The only wrestler who has lost more height than Hogan is Piper (6'1.5" down to 5'9"). Billy Graham has as well. All due to multiple surgeries..

Yes but hogans height loss might be exzzagerated becuase he might have been more 6'5 than 6'6 at his peak.

Today Hogan does not look over 6'3. Even 6'3.5 is too much for him these days.

so maybe

6'5 (196cm) peak
6'2.75 (190cm) today

meant hogan and taker obviously, a list of wwe injuries between 2001 and 2010 Click Here no mention of neck surgery for taker there more detailed Click Here

prior to 2001 taker had surgery, september 1999 groin surgery, feb 2000, torn pectoral muscle, out of action till may 2000, october 2000 gallblader surgery october 2000 out till november 2000

neck surgery would have kept him out the best part of year anyway like austin, angle, rhyno, lita, benoit and he was never out that long
James said on 7/Jun/11

austin and taker didn't have neck surgery, at least there is zero evidence online that they did

Chief Wannadubie says on 31/May/11
Stone Cold was on the radio out here in the Bay Area back when he was promoting The Condemned. One of the interviewers commented on how massive he is, and guessed his height (he guessed high, but I don't recall what). He said that he used to be 6'1", but since his neck surgery he is 6 foot flat. His words.

Hogan AND Taker both lost height due to neck surgery as well.
Danimal said on 6/Jun/11
Alex says on 6/Jun/11
I just saw the clip of Austin and Cena on Tough Enough. Austin looks a bit taller when they shake hands due the angle I think. Both are probably the same in height.

Yeah, I think Austin is around 6'0". He probably came out taller than Cena because Austin tends to wear big army/construction boots almost all the time.
TELLEM said on 6/Jun/11
lol. due to the angle. i've said it time and time again. austin is a legit 6'1". hes always been taller than cena.
Legend said on 6/Jun/11
I like Steve Austin. I just wish he didn't drink as much. He seems like a really cool guy.

Teddy, they are very close to the exact same height but Cena I thought was a smidge taller. I agree Austin was prob 6'1 at his peak but due to injuries more 6'0 or so now. Can you post the video with Cena and Austin.
James said on 6/Jun/11
i sometimes think cena can look 6ft max
Teddy said on 4/Jun/11
Alex, cena is shorter than austin just go watch the tough enough episode where austin and cena are close to each other. cena is 6'0 max and austin is 6'05 max. (after is injury that is, b4 I actually believe that 6'1 in 98 was accurate for austin)
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 4/Jun/11
187cm morning
186cm afternoon
185cm evening
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 3/Jun/11
There are three factors that need to be considered.
1. He's bald so when he's standing next to people of similiar stature full head of hair he can appear shorter.
2. He's always leaning to one side or bending his head forward when he's confronting someone.
3. The guy weighs about 250lbs and about as wide as a truck and so his massive frame can make him look shorter.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 2/Jun/11
This what I think

Barefoot 186cm
Normal shoes 188-189cm
Boots 190cm
Vegas said on 2/Jun/11
austins probably taller now than back in the mid 1990s (due to better posture), back then his neck was causing him great distress, when he had his neck fusion his doctor claimed his neck would be stronger than before his injury, 4th paragraph down Click Here

you rarely see austin holding his head to one side last few years
James said on 2/Jun/11
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 1/Jun/11
Sorry James but I disagree.

Might have been 188cm in boots back in 1998
Hugh 191cm said on 8/Jul/09
Austin 187-188cm, rock 191-192cm, Cena 184-185cm, triple h 189cm, mcmahon 187cm (188cm) peak. Shawn michaels 181-182cm. Bret hart 182-183cm, roddy piper 183cm (186cm peak)
TELLEM said on 2/Jul/09
Hugh 190cm says on 1/Jul/09
Clearly a solid 6ft1 if not closer to 6ft2. MAX 1.5 inches shorter than the Rock.

WHY DO YOU ALWAYS UPGRADE EVERYBODY??? he stated his height as 6'1. hes that or possibly lower. no more.

Hes never seen 6-1 in his life. 6-0 max.

Austin looks 6'0 in this picture, but both arent standing level to each other. I can definitely see him as a full 6'1 guy from wrestling though
TELLEM said on 30/Jun/09
6'0.75 during the day. 6'1.25 when he wakes
Luis said on 30/Jun/09
I was thinking about 6'2 in this picture, but his cap is trickier...I give him around 184 cm.
Alex said on 27/Jun/09
6'0.75-6'1 out of bed probably and 6'0 by bed. Solid 6 footer overall.
Clay said on 25/Jun/09
6'0.75-6'1.
Hugh 190cm said on 22/Jun/09
Closer to 6ft2 in my Opinion.
Hugh 190cm said on 5/Jun/09
a very solid 6ft1 at the least and possibly a weak 6ft2.

I buy 6ft1.5 to 6ft2 for this guy. I'm sorry if you think I'm constantly upgrading celebs but there are a fair few celebs I think are shorter than they're listed at.

Hugh 190cm.
Hugh 190cm said on 30/May/09
RVD might even be 5ft11.5.
Alex said on 29/May/09
Clay, I will agree that Austin can look as tall as 6'1 in the picture but barely. I dont see anything more than 2 inches there. May only be 1.5 inches. Its from a low camera angle so it may appear more do to that.
Clay said on 28/May/09
Thats easily 2 inches over RVD more like 2.5 IMO.
Alex said on 28/May/09
I've seen Austin and RVD look only an inch apart at times too.
TELLEM said on 28/May/09
i can't, because RVD doesn't have good posture aswell.
Hugh 190cm said on 28/May/09
If Austin stood with better posture I could possibly see him looking over 6ft1.
hs2009 said on 26/May/09
Thanks Tellem.

Austin has 2" on RVD in that pic, he's a legit 6'1" guy IMO because we know for sure that RVD is 5'11" given that we have a pic of him with a legit 5'11" guy on this site.
Alex said on 25/May/09
RVD at 5'11 puts Austin at 6'0 1/2 there which I can buy for him.
TELLEM said on 25/May/09
great pic hs, he does look 6'1
hs2009 said on 25/May/09
Look as this pic though, no way does Austin look only 6'0". He looks all of 6'1" IMO:

Hugh 190cm said on 23/May/09
Looked barely shorter than Triple H at times. Both in Boots. 1 inch MAX. Aswell Triple H is probably over 6ft2 anyway.
Hugh 190cm said on 22/May/09
The Rock is more of a 6ft3-6ft4 type guy. Austin is Definately between 6ft1 and 6ft2. Rikishi could be 6ft1 but that's the max.
Hugh 190cm said on 21/May/09
The Rock 192cm
Steve Austin 187cm
Rikishi 184cm
Alex said on 21/May/09
Rikisi is 6'1. Austin I thought looked slightly shorter than him from what I remember. ANd Rock doens't look much taller than Rikishi there. Looks more 6'2-6'2.5 there but thats backstage and we cant really trust backstage. I've seen ROck look 2 inches taller than Rikishi in the ring.
James said on 19/May/09
Always looked a 6'0 guy.
Hugh 190cm said on 19/May/09
Austin always looked 1 inch taller than Rikishi who is listed as 185cm on this site. I'd say Austin is 6ft1.5-6ft2 and Rikishi is 6ft0.5-6ft1.
Hugh 190cm said on 19/May/09
Rikishi might be 6ft0.5.
calvinator said on 18/May/09
6 foot to 6'1 max.

Yeah, Austin looks around 6-0 and the Rock is around 6-2. I dont see the Rock being 6-3. Here the Rock barely looks taller than 6-1 Rikishi. Click Here

Alex said on 18/May/09
Danimal, I saw Beyond the Mat but I dont really remember the height difference between Rock and Austin but usually in the ring it looks 2-2.5 inches. Most evidence points to Austin being 6'0 to 6'0 1/2.
Sam said on 18/May/09
Mam is a proven 5'8, so Austin is not shorter than 6'0, actually 6'1.5 looks about right.
Danimal said on 18/May/09

Austin is 187cm and The Rock is 192cm.

The Rock does see to have a good 2 inches on Stone Cold. But in the vid I did notice that Steve Austins legs were spread further apart than the rocks.

In all those wrestling matches between the Rock and Austin there was only about 1.5 or at most 2 inches between them. Aswell the Rock could actually be 192cm. Which would result in a 187cm Steve Austin. I think Austin's height is between 186cm-188cm.

Austin had bret hart by 1 INCH. and bret hart is/was 6'0 peak. austin IS 6'1. and nothing more.

Bret Hart was 5'11" PEAK. that was what he was billed at in Stampede wrestling and he was in his 20's at that point (FULLY grown).

Hugh might have a point, there never looked a great deal between Austin and the Rock.

He had 3 inches on Austin because The rock was RIGHT next to the camera and Austin was farther away.

Thanks for those pics Tellem!

RVD does indeed look much closer to 6'0" in those pics. Looking at him with SCSA, I do think Austin is deffo legit 6'1" & RVD is probably 5'11"-5'11.5".

Ola says on 28/Apr/09
I believe RVD could be shorter than his listed 5'11, he was barely taller than 5'10 tops tatanka so rvd could be only 5'10 or so

I'm not sure about RVD, I thought he was 5'11" but Austin is leaning and has 2" on him. If he stood up straight, RVD would look 5'10". Hmmm...
hs2009 said on 27/Apr/09
Austin CLEARLY looks 6'1" there with RVD. No way is that only 1.5" between them, it looks 2" at least.

I'd also like to see a pic of Cena & Austin @ HOF last year :D
TELLEM said on 27/Apr/09
as far as i know, there are none. you have to watch in dvd because off youtube you can't tell very well. i always thought rvd was 5'11.5...he looks it on here in this page aswell.
Alex said on 24/Apr/09
Where is this picture of Austin 1/2 inch taller than Cena? I'd like to see.

With 5'11 RVD Austin looks 6'0 1/2.
TELLEM said on 23/Apr/09
which explains why he was 1/2 taller than john cena at the 2008 hall of fame.

now i'm beginning to think that austin really is a legit 6'1.

Rock could be 6'3.5. Steve could have the footwear advantage over Mamun but just look at the respective postures.
TELLEM said on 16/Apr/09
and you upgrade everybody hugh 190cm. whats your point? just look at 5'8 mamun next to austin, and according to mamun, austin was wearing the BIG FOOTWEAR.
Alex said on 16/Apr/09
In that mugshot he was at 192cm I believe which is 6'3 1/2. But with the low angle it made him appear that much. Could be as much as 2 inches less. Those Mugshots can be off, cant judge by them.
Vegas said on 16/Apr/09

It's really good having the pic with Mamum, but it would nice to have one with someone 6'0"+.

Hugh 190cm said on 16/Apr/09
TELLEM you downgrade everybody. Sure you're nowhere near as bad as Viper but still. Austin always looked 1.5-2 inches MAX shorter than the Rock so 6ft1+ isn't laughable.

Alex says on 15/Apr/09
I'd love to meet Austin. One of my faves of all time. Also I'd be a great measuring stick for meeting him. I'd expect him to be roughly the same height as me.

Yeah Alex, you would be the perfect measuring stick on here. You'd be about the same height I would imagine, maybe 0.5" shorter.

It's really good having the pic with Mamum, but it would nice to have one with someone 6'0"+.

Hugh 190cm says on 14/Apr/09
The man measures at 6ft4 in boots. That definitely puts him close to the 6ft2 mark in barefeet.

please don't tell me your talking about his mugshot. rob demonstrated with a bad angle how u could get nearly 3 inches, which is what austin was aining due to the bad camera angle. 6'1 MAX.

Nope - doubt it...Watch that clip where hes in the ring with Mike Tyson...Theyre the same height..Tysons listed 5'11..Plus Stone Cold looks 2 inches shorter then 6'2 Triple H...

look at austin next to 5'9 brian pillman...6'0.5 for austin makes sense...hell look at him with the rock aswell.
Alex said on 10/Apr/09
Clay, I got to meet Rob, not Glenn because Glenn wasn't able to meet that weekend and I couldn't go there on the weekdays. It went well. Rob was the height I expected as a strong 5'8.25. He was a nice guy as well as his g/f Jenny who was nice too. Cool people they are. I was glad to meet them.

As far as Austin. I am a big Austin fan but I just dont think he's reaches 6'1 anymore, maybe out of bed at most. Not saying he's just 6'0 but something in between 6'0 and 6'1.
TELLEM said on 10/Apr/09
6'1 maximum

6'1 on the dot.

I was talking to Rob in person about some of the celebs on this site and Austin was one and I was suggesting to bring him down to 6'0.5.
Hugh 190cm said on 5/Apr/09
Sorry, but 6ft is ridiculous. There are just far too many pictures him on Raw and the condemned where he's consistently appearing at 6ft1-6ft2.
Alex said on 5/Apr/09
Austin was taller than Cena by an inch at the Hall of Fame Ceremony? Got a picture. I figured they were the same height or if anything Cena was slightly taller.
Hugh 190cm said on 31/Mar/09
The full 6ft2 is a bit to tall. But he does look near 6ft2. 186cm is a good estimate. Anything form 185cm to 187cm is right. He has clearly taller than John Cena (6ft0.5) at the Hall of Fame Ceremony by an inch.
Alex said on 30/Mar/09
Hugh, no disrespect but no way is Austin as tall as 6'2 or even in that range. The guy looks roughly in the 183-184cm range, 185cm would really be pushing it for him.

Goldberg is 6'2, same as Lesnar.
Hugh 190cm said on 27/Mar/09
Austin is unquestionably 185cm-188cm range.
TELLEM said on 24/Mar/09
actually austin edges out john cena by .5 inch...i was watching the wwe hall of fame 2008 and when the rock came out the camera from a far distance was panned to austin and cena who were both next to each other.
Anonymous said on 24/Mar/09
Yes I agree with Tellem I believe Austin is 6'0 feet he for all those who say john cena is shorter that a lie. Cena is just an inch shorter than triple h and on the Tonish show wiht jay leno tonight he was about 3 inches taller than 5'11 jay leno. So Leno is probably 5'10

For all those who think Steve is 6'1", THINK AGAIN. Here we have a RARE video of Stone Cold in 2007 coming in in SNEAKERS and facing off against Donald Trump and Vince McMahon. Stone Cold without his boots appears to be a FLAT 6'0", or just shy of that. It's at the 50 second mark and onwards and it's VERY obvious and remember, this is an AGED Donald Trump and Vince McMahon (both men in their 60's): Click Here
TELLEM said on 17/Mar/09
well most of the time vince is taller or the same height as austin,meanwhile austin isn't taller in any of those vids...austin IS shorter than vince.
Shock of Electric said on 16/Mar/09
This is no different from any other videos I've ever seen of Vince and Austin myself, their height advantage goes back and forth constantly depending on the camera angle, and most of the time Austin's head is level with Vince's hair anyway, on top of that, Austin is almost always leaning forward anytime he appears shorter.. They are virtually identical height.
Shock of Electric said on 15/Mar/09
Bret at 6'0.5" peak I believe, I believe did have a slight boot advantage over Austin, as just about everyone did. Austin's boots were definitely as small as .5", Hart's no more than 1", probably .75".
TELLEM said on 15/Mar/09

vince is taller than austin by half an inch, which would make austin 6'0.5 and reaches 6'1 out of bed. vince 6'1, 6'1.5 out of bed.

hs2009 said on 15/Mar/09
I totally agree SoE about Austin's boots. That's how Bret Hart looked so close in height with Austin. Bret was MAX 6'0" at his peak IMO, he wore boots with a thicker sole which made him look more 6'1".

I would be surprised if Austin's boots gave much more than 0.5"-0.75" boost.

He didn't really stand that straight with Vince all the time either, so he could have been the same height if he stood up straight IMO. Austin is certainly not under 6'0.75" IMO.
Shock of Electric said on 15/Mar/09
Sigh. I didn't say he was 6'2". I said it's not *ridiculous*. If someone thinks he's 6'2", I could understand why.

You can find pics where Austin is taller than Vince so you can't say "he was always shorter than Vince McMahon".

I've also seen people say Austin wore "large" footwear in the ring, now *that* is ridiculous as he had some of the thinnest boots at the time. In the ring he comes out in general, about .25"-.5" shorter on everyone than he actually was considering the average boot jump in the late 90s.
hs2009 said on 14/Mar/09
Only by about 0.5" though. Vince was about 6'1.25"-6'1.5" back then IMO, putting Austin in that weak 6'1" region again.

6'2 is ridiculous...6'2 would mean brian pillman was 5'10.5, 6'2 would also mean that austin is a liar when claims hes 6'1, 6'2 would mean jason statham is 5'10.5, and 6'2 would aswell mean that the rock is 6'4.5-6'5.
Shock of Electric said on 13/Mar/09
6'2" for Austin is not at all "ridiculous." He's a cool 5" taller than Mamun in this pic and yet he's not even standing up straight while Mamun looks like he has a rake in his shirt. 6'1.5" is very possible and I'd even go as far to say 6'1.75" peak. A friend of mine is nearly 6'4" when he wakes up and 6'3 1/8" exactly before he goes to bed and still says he's 6'3". Some people don't care as much to inflate their height, and Austin obviously is one of those people. Austin probably should have been billed 6'3" but generally 6'2".
Clay said on 11/Mar/09
6'2 is really pushing it but 6'0.5-6'1 is where he nestles in.

I really don't see how he can be under 185cm, it's blatant in every picture of him. He also had a solid 1", perhaps a smidge more, on a peak Shawn Michaels who was no way under 5'11.5" in 1997/1998.

He has 4.5" on a 5'8.25" Mamum so is a weak 6'1" IMO.
hs2009 said on 3/Mar/09
TELLEM, Shane McMahon was in the audience chanting "You Sold Out!" at both men along with the MSG crowd! WWE can be pretty spiteful about people leaving the company the way those guys, especially Lesnar, did. He gave them SO little notice that he was leaving to play NFL, that storylines would've had to be hastily changed, it caused WWE a lot of inconvinience plus left a HUGE hole in their talent roster. It meant that career mid-carder Bradshaw had to become a main-eventer!

Why would you want to have a bad match leaving a company? It doesn't reflect bad on WWE because both guys are leaving. I think that match was WWE's parting gift to both men, Goldberg had a really mediocre run and made a lot of money doing it & Lesnar just upped & left with a weeks notice.
TELLEM said on 2/Mar/09
why would they want that hs2009? if anything i'm sure goldberg and lesnar planned the whole thing and wanted to stick it to WWE since it was their last night with that company, which they both loathed the company.
_-_-_-Hugh-_-_-_/ said on 27/Feb/09
Austin looked 2 inches taller than 6ft Dane Cook.
hs2009 said on 23/Feb/09
I think WWE deliberately wanted the Lesnar vs. Goldberg match to be boring, since both men were leaving the company afterwards. The only guy in that match that left looking good was Stone Cold as the referee.

It would be awesome to have Austin wrestle one more match at WM 25. I'd like to see him against Undertaker or John Cena, but I highly doubt that will ever happen :(
Alex said on 22/Feb/09
Back at WM 20 I was looking forward to Brock Lesnar vs Goldberg and I thought it was going to be a great match. 2 powerhouses facing off but Lesnar was the better wrestler of the 2. I watch the match and it ends up being under average. I wont say it sucked very bad because a few points in the match were good.
Alex said on 21/Feb/09
Vegas, yea back in 1998 Austin vs Goldberg would have been HUGE. Nobody would care much if that happened now though.
Yea if Austin or Hogan wrestle they may lose to someone like Cena. Orton is going for a main title so he wont be against either of them.
Vegas said on 20/Feb/09
hogan vs austin should have taken place in 2002 imo, it wouldn't draw near as much money now as people think, austin is finished, hogan can still go for sure but it would be up to him to dictate the entire course of the match, something which has never been his strong point; the match would probably end up looking horrible. hogan and cena imo would be fine match, hogan losing would signify passing the torch to the next generation of mega-star, if austin or hogan do wrestle they should put one of the current roster over big time, guys like cena, orton, edge are now ready to carry the torch.

regarding biggest match in history, imagine if they booked goldberg (before he lost) against austin in 1998, that would have broken all records
Alex said on 18/Feb/09
I heard Austin vs Hogan too. That would be cool to see though. I've heard UT vs HBK which would be great. I dont like the Jericho/Hogan idea really.
Vegas said on 18/Feb/09
Ola says on 17/Feb/09
Austin vs Hogan in WM25 false or true?

austin/hogan a match between two non-regular competitors will never happen at mania, current word is that it could be jericho/hogan or jericho/austin OR hogan/cena
Alex said on 14/Feb/09
Actually I think if anything Cena may edge out Austin by a hair.
