Scott Thompson (born April 16, 1971) is an American professional wrestler. He is best known for his appearances with the professional wrestling promotion World Championship Wrestling under the ring name King Kong in the early 1990s and later worked as Krusher Kong on the wrestling independent circuit. Thompson teamed up with another wrestler, Dwain McCullough, known as Awesome Kong to form a regular tag team known as The Colossal Kongs.
There is a lot of confusion regarding the career of Krusher Kong (Thompson) and Awesome Kong (McCullough) due to the fact that McCullough wrestled as "King Kong" prior to Thompson's career, including a run in WWC as TV Champion. Also, AJPW's Texas Terminator Hoss is sometimes misidentified as Thompson, but it was also McCullough.
