It's all how you portray them. Look at Kane from 97-2002 as opposed to Kane from 2002-now.
As for therie being any giants left, I'd saw Mark Henry counts.

Those just seem like big guys to me. When I think "Giant" I think Andre, Big Show, Khali, El Gigante, Silva... guys with an actual gland problem.

Most recently, all who comes to mind is Eli Cottonwood and I'm not sure he'd even qualify, and Isis The Amazon... but neither are working at the moment to my knowledge.

Mark Henry is a giant to be because he has that same sense of immovability about it. Like The Blob. You aren't going to move him if he doesn't want to be moved.

so we could say that Tursas, Ryota Hama, or Alexander Rusev are giants too?
