i have been watching alotta youtube lately and came across this.
Yea i noticed he's working someone who could make a sack of dog crap look like Ric Flair but i honestly think he could have had a really good run and maybe even a short title run, i'd rather have him then Khali, and the gimmick was so good, he was a legit badass, anyone who spends 10 years in prison is a badass.

I don't understand why spending time in prison makes him badass, it's not like he had a choice. But he was way to green and RAW, a guy like that would greatly benefit from Japan in which they teach you how to use your size and strength in an appropriate manner. Japan can really make awkward big men into great wrestlers.

I was unaware he wrestled in Japan, maybe you're thinking of Matt Morgan who was around at the same time of Nathan Jones. But to answer your question big men in Japan is kind of a novelty, it's not common and then like I said earlier if you stay long enough they teach you how to use you size properly. I bet a guy like Albert has come leaps and bounds wrestling wise due to his time over there.

Man I wish we saw more of this guy. He was an absolute beast and his australian ex-convict made his character that much more interesting.

he didnt want to wrestle anymore because of the heavy schedual or something, he even said being in prison was better than being in the WWE..
