Most WWE guys are pretty cut mesomorphs these days at least. I keep seeing people posting this thing like it's a workout guide, but it's not, it's for character design. I'm basically saying if you want a character to read as a "wrestler" at a glace you're probably going to want to draw something that looks like more like Kane Hodder as opposed to 1980's Arnold Schwarzenegger or 1960's Clint Eastwood.Of course it's going to depend on what the rest of your cast looks like, but, yanno. If you've got a team of little guys and one tank you want a different aesthetic than if you have a whole team of big guys. It's a big pet peeve I have with the Street fighter anime, every character except for E. Honda and Blanka has the same body type. So the brawlers like Balrog and the army guys like Guile all have the exact same builds as the Martial artists like Ryu and the flippy little acrobats like Vega. Makes it easier for the animation team because they only need to learn to draw one thing, but it makes for a boring cast.

I don't have one for women because I don't really draw them enough to be any kind of authority on them. I don't give myself any more credit than I deserve

hey this is awesome. I've just really started branching out in body types for characters, and this really gave me a lot to work with and think about for one design I'm having a hard time with, thanks!
