Hey, thanks for watching this clip! Check out our full interview from Starrcast V in Nashville on my main channel here: th-cam.com/video/Iv_estB1S2A/w-d-xo.html
Someone who's extremely overlooked in the strength conversation is Kane. At one point, Kane was just walking muscle. The ease at which he would lift some of the heavier guys... Just astonishing!
Well Claudio didnt fight him in his prime and his strength were really going downhill in 2010s. Agree that Kane in 1990 & early 2000 were really strong
@@fabiansproer378 I don’t think Kane was ever stronger than Big Show. There’s extraordinary strength, and then there’s Giant strength. There’s just nothing like it.
I still remember the hell in a cell match where the chain on the door was mistakenly not gimmicked and Mark Henry still breaks the thing, ridiculously strong dude.
@@M3ssi117 LOL it was like 18 years ago at this point 😂 but yeah, door was suppose to be gimmicked, it wasnt, it got a tad awkward then Henry went f*** it and got in anyway lol
But Kurt IS an olympic gold medalist and will be for life. Mark isn't the world's strongest man and has since passed that moniker off to the next twenty or so winners.
@@shootboxpodcast even to this day Mark Henry still holds world records for some of the heaviest lifts ever done by a drug tested athlete, who also came back clean. So he still has legitimate claim as the World's Strongest Man.
@@Streetkillz13 mark henry won a competition called the arnolds strongman (i could be wrong but i think i remember it wasnt the best field of athletes that year) theres no doubt hes strong got some record lifts but the guy is meaning thee actual worlds strongest man competition, thats seperate from what mark done and he never competed in it, there is a good chance he would have won it at somepoint if he stuck to competing in strongman. (braun strowman was tipped to do well in that industry before he went to wwe)
Yeah, especially since he favors all the crossfit stuff in lieu of going heavy. I'm sure he has great strength for throwing around mid-sized guys, but that's not gonna convert to the pure strength of some of the other guys.
Nahh man Seth Rollins is very strong for his size, have you seen him powerbomb Roman Reigns, he picked up Reigns a few times and hoisted Roman from that classic powerbomb, piledriver set-up, and he ran with Roman on his shoulders to deliver that Buckle Bomb, Im not sure how Rollins can handle big guys like Braun Strowman but Seth showcased his strength againt guys his size or slightly bigger
How tf could Vince not see what he had with him. Great wrestler. Knows multiple languages. Fan favorite. Good look. He may not be the greatest talker but neither is randy Orton and he was a top guy. He is a top tier talent that was relegated to mid card and tag teams SMH
@@OVO-Adolf I agree but they also gave orton the time and worked with him. They were treated completely different. He saw Orton as a star when he walked in. Idk why he didn't look at Claudio the same way. He was already polished in everything else. Remember they gave him Heyman which would've be great for him but dropped him like a bad habit for no reason
Kayfabe wise 2005 Batista but in reality Batista in 2002-2003 was the strongest and most athletic, there was one match (maybe a tag team match when batista was with Devon) and Batista picked Mark Henry for a firemans carry as easy as Lesnar, Batista 2002-2003 was def The Animal
Man, I love Batista but didn’t he botch a power bomb in that year too? LOL Happened in the Royal Rumble. He just looked good before the roids got stopped. And nah, there’s no reason for Cesaro to say that because he didn’t wrestle Dave.
Nothing too surprising here, except maybe him mentioning Seth Rollins. However, strength or being "strong" doesn't always have to do with size. Some people are just naturally strong. Obviously, working out and lifting weights helps with all of that, but some people just genetically have that strength that weightlifting just enhances. For example, grip strength. Some people can work out a ton and not really have that, while some people are just born with it. They can literally just grab your arm and squeeze and hurt the hell out of you.
yeah its also easy to forget muscle density, and some guys like seth you can just tell are more than ripped the way john morrison was/is, he has an extra bit of chisel that almost always means dense muscle. thats why 2 guys can be similar height weight appearance in size but the slightly smaller guy is stronger
#2 Ken Patera, the real World’s Strongest Man in wrestling. #1 Andre. If he didn’t want you to do something with him, you didn’t. Well couldn’t. I saw him lift the rear of a car in a school parking lot. Not as a show of strength but because he got mad.
Not trying to take anything away from Cena, dude's a beast but lets not forget that the leverage his body uses when performing the AA helps him lift heavier, unlike Cesaro doing his spinning thing or Mark Henry's WSS where your opponent is IN FRONT of you, essentially making it harder.
Brock Lesnar and Goldberg pop immediately in my head but since everyone keeps mentioning John Cena he might really be.. but frankly I have never seen him 😜
other than mark henry being called the worlds strongest man I remember thinking it was a bit exagerated but then the dude ripped an ungimicked lock off a cage......consider what that would require
Cesaro isn’t stronger than Cena, I’ve never heard anyone say that Cesaro is stronger than Cena, even Big Show said that Cena is the strongest guy he ever saw😂
@@juliuskingsely8256 mark henry can’t hold big show long tho, he only picked up show a couple of times and struggled. Cena picked up show bunch of times with ease like it’s nothing. Acting or not, you can’t lie john is strong af. Now, meh. Back then yes he was
@@ahmandg.9659 I mean the maxes for both aren’t even close, pretty sure cenas is like 600 for squat which is ungodly levels of strength but marks is like 900 which is just mind boggling out if this world strength, there is a reason he is called the worlds strongest man because he has actually won the world strongest man competition. By no means am I degrading cenas strength but to say cena is stronger that mark is laughable, both are crazy strong but mark is on a mother level than cena
Seth rollins is athletic He is a good move seller like shawn michael He has good mike skill and good heel and baby face character But he is not the strongest guy because he can't lift big show in his shoulders like john cena does

Can you imagine MARK HENRY doing a pull up?!
More like a pull down.
The whole grass on the ground would be pulling up with him.
Honestly, no
There’s video of a young Mark Henry doing a dunk. I’m not joking

Mark Henry being vetted as the strongest man was like Kurt being a gold medalist and using that moniker for life.
But Kurt IS an olympic gold medalist and will be for life. Mark isn't the world's strongest man and has since passed that moniker off to the next twenty or so winners.

@@shootboxpodcast Even so, he was at one point, and is still one of the strongest people in the world.
Those were not pull ups being done by Mark Henry... he was just pulling down the world with each rep
😂
I'm surprised that he named Seth Rollins. I know he has an incredible physique
But I always thought of him as the athletic guy not the strong guy
CrossFit Jesus lol
Yeah, especially since he favors all the crossfit stuff in lieu of going heavy. I'm sure he has great strength for throwing around mid-sized guys, but that's not gonna convert to the pure strength of some of the other guys.
Isnt his superplex to falcon arrow require really strong attribute.
@@johanbee8757 Even with his knee history, he still can do it.

Mark Henry says Cesaro
Cesaro says mark Henry
That's the respect
💯🤙legends
I’m pretty sure when Mark Henry does pull ups it sends gravitational waves out into the fabric of the universe.
How tf could Vince not see what he had with him. Great wrestler. Knows multiple languages. Fan favorite. Good look.
He may not be the greatest talker but neither is randy Orton and he was a top guy.
He is a top tier talent that was relegated to mid card and tag teams
SMH
Randy orton was an amazing talker as time went on, plus he has that attitude, he got his own swag and Claudio don’t really got the swag like that
@@OVO-Adolf I agree but they also gave orton the time and worked with him. They were treated completely different. He saw Orton as a star when he walked in. Idk why he didn't look at Claudio the same way. He was already polished in everything else.

Not a big fan of Orton but he’s a much better talker than monotone Cesaro.
@@jamesdubeck4920 dude he’s boring asf you guys focus on wrestling rather than personality
@@OVO-Adolf Randy is pretty average on mic.
John Cena is an emotion ❤
Pound for pound , I would have said Cesaro.
For all the people who are wondering why he didn't name Lesnar it's because he probably never worked out with Lesnar
I think brock lesnar is the strongest I've ever seen.he impressed me every time..in my opinion
According to Big Show Lesnar was not at strong as Cena and he felt it wasn't close
@@rawdog5506 and Vince said brock is super smart to
you gotta feel strength, not just see it
There is no opinion when Big Show himself said that Cena is stronger than Lesnar & Goldberg & everybody else lol
@@rawdog5506 he said Cena is more functionally strong, which is slightly different. Lesnar is definitely stronger in the classical sense.
Hornswoggle is The Strongest Wrestler In WWE history.
Definitely
Cesaro was one of the best and super strong
What about the animal batista during 2005?? He is strong af
Kayfabe wise 2005 Batista but in reality Batista in 2002-2003 was the strongest and most athletic, there was one match (maybe a tag team match when batista was with Devon) and Batista picked Mark Henry for a firemans carry as easy as Lesnar, Batista 2002-2003 was def The Animal

And nah, there’s no reason for Cesaro to say that because he didn’t wrestle Dave.
You are asking the strongest guy about the strongest guy that he has seen?
Ain't nobody stronger than my boy Cesaro 💪
Literally John Cena
Literally goldberg, lesnar, cena, mark, kane, big show etc
Though cesaro is the strongest in his class
It's John Cena & Mark Henry absolutely
Himself, Big E, Brock, Cena & honestly Otis
Mark Henry was asked this question, all of his answers was Claudio
Nothing too surprising here, except maybe him mentioning Seth Rollins. However, strength or being "strong" doesn't always have to do with size. Some people are just naturally strong.

Yes now Andre started getting mad at school lol. Don't make the stories which has already been there.
Not trying to take anything away from Cena, dude's a beast but lets not forget that the leverage his body uses when performing the AA helps him lift heavier, unlike Cesaro doing his spinning thing or Mark Henry's WSS where your opponent is IN FRONT of you, essentially making it harder.
Yes but he lifted both Big Show and Edge at the same time. Those probably equal to 3-4 normal humans
Mark Henry was a FREAK in his prime. It doesn't surprise me that he can do pull ups bc the guy used to dunk basketballs!
Brock Lesnar & Kane 💪
Claudio Castagnoli
Correct answer: himself
I like that he went for a non obvious one with Seth
I like how he said Seth Rollins to put out an answer that wasn't obvious. Cause yeah all the other guys, you just assumed.
Love how he's like of fucking course cena is a freak
Worlds strongest man was not a gimmick
2000-2003 Kane would have destroyed most of the locker room including, Cena, Cesaro, Henry and Lesnar.
Brock Lesnar and Goldberg pop immediately in my head but since everyone keeps mentioning John Cena he might really be.. but frankly I have never seen him 😜
How many guys have you seen pick up big show in a vertical suplex, cesaro included? I've only seen 1 guy do it and that was Goldberg.
Theres no way im going to walk this earth and allow a 400 pound human to do more pullups than me
Sounds like you need to get to work then 💪
I wonder what would he say if goldberg ever fought him in his prime
Cena can carry show n henry better than any wrestler ever! Easily
Clickbait thumbnail bro!
It’s just Cesaro floating in the air 👋
@@CVVCLIPS lame man
other than mark henry being called the worlds strongest man I remember thinking it was a bit exagerated but then the dude ripped an ungimicked lock off a cage......consider what that would require
What about Brock or Roman?
Old masked Kane
No mention of Kane?!
Mark Henry has never done 550lbs. The record is 500 by Eddie Hall
It's weird that people don't name Braun Strowman but the dude is easily top 5 strongest wrestlers ever. He won the damn Arnold for god's sake
“Mark Henry is probably the strongest person on the planet” 😂
Eddie Hall…..
I'd like to see him take bumps over decades and still maintain that strength, which is what Claudio seems to be referring to
Just because cena is strong that don’t make a good wrestler. He’s just a weight room athlete
Chris benoit pound for pound is the strongest wrestler ever 💪🏻
Absolutely
Don't forget about Brock Lesnar 🔥
prime Goldberg. that time when he Jackhammered Big Show.. I mean he deserves to be in the consideration, at least.
Braun Strowman
I remember when a lioness gave 3 WWE wrestlers a run for their money in a tug of war
They always forget an elephant in the room when it comes to raw strength.
Brock Lesnar.
For me he just comes after mark henry.
If you wrestle mark Henry and don't say mark Henry, then you didn't pay attention
Cesaro isn’t stronger than Cena, I’ve never heard anyone say that Cesaro is stronger than Cena, even Big Show said that Cena is the strongest guy he ever saw😂

Where is BROCK LESNAR ?
Show said that Cena was the strongest guy he was ever in the ring with. Rick Boogs is probably the strongest pound for pound…or was before his injury.
He didn't named BROCK LESNAR :(
What about roman reigns he's very strong
Brawn strongman is the 💪 strongest
why wwe if he is in AEW
Need to Sweet the full video of this
John Cena is the strongest
Brock lesnar be like....hmmm
Mark is stronger.
Seth Rollins strong 🙄🙄🙄 FOH
Seth rollins is athletic
He is a good move seller like shawn michael
He has good mike skill and good heel and baby face character
But he is not the strongest guy because he can't lift big show in his shoulders like john cena does
Cena lifts him on his shoulders, because that's part of his finishing move. No doubt in my mind other wrestlers can do that as well. Matt Morgan
Cesaro is one of the most talented wrestlers of all time. With McMahon he doesn’t have the look. So what ! He should be made champion.
Still does.isn't mark on a wheelchair now?
