When I left the cabin I asked the crew if it was wake turbulence, and they confirmed it. BIG plane, violent roll.

It can get pretty violent. You might want to look at the Denver arrival charts and see if you were under any of the arrivals. Denver approach usually keeps us right on the arrivals and they slow us down when we get around 30 miles from DEN so we're clean and slow which makes for maximum wake.

Probably lasted 2 seconds but my head still hurts.
