It might be derailing the thread, but, I gotta put this out there.
You can be a big tough guy ICly, even in defeat. It's possible to lose a fight and do it amazingly enough that you maintain your presence. I think it comes across as much more beneficial to their rp when the big guy, the huge, monstrous Roegadyn, in this case, rps him falling to the earth with a massive thud after an attack, thus cementing the magnitude of who they were in the fight to begin with, rather than no-selling the attack because "LOL, I am huge." It makes both guys look good in this fight.
Goliath wasn't any less huge for losing to David.
I wasn't arguing against you, actually, but rather, complimenting your argument and making an important point.
I snipped it because huge post would've been huge.

David killed Goliath. I'm fairly sure that brings you down a few notches in terms of power.
Fine then, Andre the Giant wasn't any less huge for having lost to Canek in Mexico in a pinfall in 1984.
