— WWE officials have been on the look out for grandiose wrestlers in recent months—regardless of body shape or ability. Josh Taylor, who stands at 6’10” and 385 pounds, is the latest voluminous grappler to be examined by WWE as he tried out for company officials prior to Friday’s live event in Sydney. He is billed as the largest wrestler in Australia.
Professional Wrestling Alliance Queensland co-owner Andrew Venables said Taylor is Australia’s best chance of success overseas. “He is the heart and soul of wrestling in Australia,” Venables said. “If he shows them half the dedication as he has locally then he will make it.”
An article on his tryout is available here.
