The South African had begun on his homeland’s local scene aged just 16, while also competing on the British circuit.
Sporting a ripped, 6ft 1in frame, he worked his way up to the big time.
After his big break, he became the first South African to ever sign with the WWE.
In addition to his hulking frame, he was known for his jet black hair.
While he alternated between a clean-shaven look and black stubble.
He went on to leave the WWE in 2015, but still wrestles with different promotions.
The former WWE star has represented Impact Wrestling and Ring of Honor, among others.
And he is still going to this day.

Justin Gabriel still wrestles, just with a very different look.
During an interview with PWMania Gabriel, who now performs under the name PJ Black, sported an enormous beard.
Such was the length of his facial hair, that he has had it plaited.
Gabriel, now 42, also wears an elaborate moustache, curled at each side.
During the interview he talked about his dramatic new look, saying: “I didn’t plan on growing this beard during lockdowns, I kind of just grew a little goatee unto a point.
“And it just started growing and growing… I even cut a bit off every week.
“And I was like this will work for this new character that I’m trying to launch.
“This Dr. Darewolf shaman character, which I have not yet… fully pulled the trigger on, but I’ve dropped some hints on it.
“So it kind of works. So let’s see where it goes.”
Seeing Gabriel’s new look, one fan wrote on Instagram: “whhhaaaattt.”
While a second exclaimed: “WHAT”.
A third commented: “Wtf”.
