My Take

As The Warlord, the 196-centimetre Szopinski was pure intimidation, and that is exactly the wrestling I respond to. His run as half of the Powers of Pain alongside The Barbarian in the late-1980s WWF and Jim Crockett Promotions captures an era when raw size and presence carried a match before any technical wizardry entered the picture. I will admit a bias here: I still find this kind of uncomplicated, monstrous power more satisfying than the most intricate modern style. He was a creature of his time, and that time produced some of the most viscerally fun spectacle wrestling ever offered.
