* "Macho Man" [[Randy Savage]] demands his place on this list, Oh Yeeeeaaaaaaaaah!!
* So does Black Machismo Jay Lethal, though his version is full of [[Narm]].
** [[Spider-Man (film)|Hey freak show! You're going nowhere. I got you for three minutes. Three minutes of ME time!]]
* [[Bryan Danielson]] was long pegged as an impossibly brilliant wrestler who unfortunately had no personality. Then he won the [[Ring of Honor]] Championship and started bringing the ham. His hammy act included daring the audience to riot because he is a "ONE MAN RIOT SQUAD," forcing the ring announcer to call him "The best wrestler in the world, with an ''emphasis'' on entire world," or most famously putting his opponents in illegal holds for as long as the referee allows him because "I HAVE TILL FIVE!".
** Now, during his heel World Champion run in WWE, we have "YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!" after winning matches (or doing anything, really).
* [[Kurt Angle]] certainly qualifies. This was lampshaded by [[John Cena]]: When Kurt was throwing a tantrum in the ring, Cena popped up on the TitanTron and yelled: "Kurt! Kurt! Stop it, man, you're acting like a friggin' [[Large Ham|ham sandwich]]!

* Seemingly every person of higher rank in the Imperium of Man, Chaos, or other factions in the ''[[Warhammer
** ''' ''"KILL! MAIM! BURN! KILL! MAIM! BURN! KILL! MAIM! BURN! KILL! MAIM! BURN! KILL! MAIM! BURN! KILL! MAIM! BURN! KILL! MAIM! BURN! KILL! MAIM! BURN!"'' '''
** Or Khorne's.
Line 61:
** [[Ciaphas Cain]] gets his own Large Ham even, in ''Cain's [[Last Stand]]'', when he gives a propaganda speech to the planet. Even Inquisitor Vail has no comment on it, because quite frankly it's so out of character that it speaks for itself.
*** You're spelling it wrong. It's '''COMMISSAR CIAPHAS CAIN, HERO OF THE IMPERIUM!!!'''
* Some of the many alien powers in ''Cosmic Encounter'' seem designed to encourage players to play them this way, but especially the Sniveler.
* It's ''technically'' possible to play a ''[[Dungeons
** Certain classes (both in 3.5 and 4e) get mechanical benefits for being relentlessly hammy. Well, okay, for 'inspiring courage' and 'using words to bolster allies' but we all know what's going on here.
* In ''[[Exalted]]'', it seems like one of the prerequisites for becoming one of the titular [[A God Is You|Exalted]] is to be a colossal ham, not to mention the [[Fair Folk]], [[Our Demons Are Different|Demons]] and [[Complete Monster|Deathlords]] get in on it too.
