Over the years, we have seen many dominant athletes in WWE, but there will always be one giant, and that is André the Giant. Though it is almost impossible to have another legend like him, The Undertaker suggests there is someone currently on the Raw roster who can get close to André the Giant.
André the Giant was an absolute legend in the company. Standing over seven feet tall, he became the inaugural and sole inductee in the WWE Hall of Fame in 1993. Though there have been wrestlers in the past who have been compared to him like The Big Show, The Undertaker has a different choice. According to The Phenom, current WWE Raw superstar, Omos, is the closest when compared to André the Giant.
The Phenom thinks Omos is different from everybody else. Well, to hear that from a WWE legend like The Undertaker would certainly mean the world to Omos.

The Undertaker thinks Omos is a special WWE superstar
Speaking on WWE’s The Bump, The Undertaker praised the Raw superstar. When asked about Omos, The Undertaker said (h/t: Fightful), “The biggest thing for him, and it’s funny that you mentioned him because I’ll say this, there will never be another Andre. But this guy is as close as we’ve come. I mean, and that’s a big statement. Absolutely. But he’s special, almost as special.”

Well, Omos certainly made a point by winning The Rock’s 25th Anniversary Battle Royal at WWE Survivor Series 2021. The future looks bright for the Raw superstar, who is currently paired up with AJ Styles. It might be a matter of time till we see Omos getting a singles run in the company.
