SUMMARY
- WWE superstar Braun Strowman stands at 6'8'' and weighs 385lbs.
- Strowman has a particular diet that even WWE CCO Triple H can't fathom.
The Monster among Men Braun Strowman is undoubtedly among the bulkiest superstars ever. The 6 Foot 8 Inch Giant weighs around 385lbs. Given his monstrous size, Braun is agile, fast, and adaptive inside the ring, adding to his overall personality. Since making his debut alongside the Wyatt Family, Strowman has been nothing short of phenomenal.
It didn’t take him much time to showcase his strength as Braun gave some spectacular matches during his initial days in the WWE. In his tenure with the company till now, Strowman has achieved a lot and continues to grow. Being a former WWE Universal Champion, Intercontinental Champion, and even a WWE Tag Team champion twice, Braun has done it all.
He was defeated by Tyson Fury, the heavyweight boxing champion, at Crown Jewel in 2019. It was especially clear that the WWE valued his participation in these glamorous battles. Usually, only Superstars at the top of the company are used for such high-profile bouts. A review of an interview he did in 2018 provides us with some insight into his diet.
He lists the following foods he is allowed to eat at Waffle House: two grilled chicken breasts, six egg whites, four entire eggs, a double order of hash browns, orange juice, and coffee. After he heard Strowman go over his breakfast menu, Triple H said hilariously that he was not going to pay the caterer. “I’m not paying that catering bill”, said Triple H.

Andre The Giant
One of the first giants in WWE history, the late Andre the Giant, decimated his rivals in the ring and was one of the main attractions for the WWE. He was rightfully called the ‘Immovable Object’ in the company because of his heavy body and giant-looking shape. Weighing at 520lbs, Andre was nothing short of a monster and had an even more shocking diet to prove it.

Andre also used to drink a lot of beer every day before his matches to maintain shape. He used to consume around 7,000 calories from his beers every day according to WWE Hall of Famer Gerald Brisco.
At the age of 46, the great wrestler succumbed to congestive heart failure while sleeping in 1993. In 1993, WWE made him the first person to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
The Great Khali
Without a doubt, one of the most popular WWE Superstars of all time The Great Khali has been in the headlines for his massive diet. In his tenure with the WWE, he won the World Heavyweight Championship and gave several memorable moments with The Undertaker, The Big Show, and many more WWE veterans.
In several interviews and videos, Khali has revealed that he always intends to take a protein-rich diet. His diet involves plenty of Eggs, Apples, Pears, Bread, and a lot of chicken. He continues to take eggs throughout the day increasing its tally to around 50 eggs. Khali also advises regularly eating healthy food including pulses, grains, and a lot of muesli.
The Big Show
When The Big Show was an active in-ring competitor, he stood an astounding 7 feet tall and weighed over 400lbs. Even though he lost a lot of weight towards the end of his career, at his prime he looked and ate like a savage monster.
For breakfast alone, he would down a 20-egg omelet, loads of milk, juice, and, for dessert, a whole container of ice cream. He also revealed that he used to eat up to 18,000 calories a day. It included 4 Big Macs, shakes, fries, apple pies, fish sandwich from McDonalds. But in his latter career, he cut off his favorite processed foods from his diet and shed almost 70 pounds.
Yokozuna
Yokozuna, the late WWE Hall of Famer, long battled with his weight and once reached an astounding 600lbs while competing in the company. However, he carried on performing in the WWE main event scene and went on to win two WWE Championships. He comes from the famous Anoa’i family, whose patriarchs are renowned for their massive bodies.
In an interview, Jimmy Uso revealed that he had witnessed the Wild Samoans, Yokozuna, Rikishi, Samu, and Tonga Kid frying about a hundred turkey tails in their garden. He claimed to have realized how they all became so large after he watched Yokozuna consume about half of what they were grilling at the time.
In another instance, Yokozuna also consumed 40 pounds of Turkey in one single afternoon alongside The Undertaker. As told by Bruce Pritchard, Yokozuna deep fried it, grabbed a couple of mayonnaise jars, and ate all the turkey while dunking them in multiple jars of mayonnaise. It shows how massive the Hall of Famer was and how much he consumed during his prime days.
