Where's the Big Show?

[addy2hotty]

has he been written out or got injured or something?

Or has he become victim to my fast forwarding ways?

[Destor]

He was in the battle royale on SD! Friday

[OverTaker]

hes WAS injured

[Xero]

So basically, after all the Mania hoopla, he's basically where Khali should be - an enhancement character. Yay.

[Dave Youell]

Show is a great asset to have on any roster, he could be jobbed out for months, yet at the same time could be put into a main event title programme and he would still be considered a threat

[Funky Fly]

He was down in Mexico eating luchadores. It's the secret to his size.

[Hanso Amore]

Exactly Dave, just like Kane, you can job him out and make his opponent look good, then turn around and the fans will still buy him as a major threat to everyone. Big guys have that luxury.

It works even better when they are off TV for a bit, then show up unexpected to kick sombodies ass. When their music hits, the fans forget every loss ever, and they know the Big guy is about to pound some ass.....and then beat up the guy in the ring.

[Fox]

Will Big Show never get his legitimate World Title push?

[Destor]

You remember that time he beat Hulk Hogan for the title?

Pretty sure that was legit.

[Hanso Amore]

Or when he dethroned the companies number 1 guy (Lesnar) to win the More important title of the 2.

WELLLLLLLLLLL....WHERE'S THE BIG SHOW?
WHERE'S THE BIG BAD SHOW TONIGHT?
YEAH, WHERE'S THE BIG SHOW?
IS HE JUST OUTSIDE BY THE LIGHTS?
OH, I'M TELLIN' YOU BROTHER, I JUST DON'T KNOW
I DON'T SEE HIM COMIN'
BUT IF I DO, I'LL LET YOU KNOW
WHERE'S THE BIG SHOW?

[Dave Youell]

Plus Show went over both HHH and Rocky in a match where he was meant to be a replacement.

So apart from going over the companies 3 top guys on different occasions for the top titles, he's done nothing.....

[D Mac]

He's somewhere on the planet Earth. That's where.

[Xero]

How do you know?

Maybe he went back to his home planet of Showtopia.

[Hanso Amore]

The guys is huge, but limited in the ring, and I think they have done a great job of keeping him relevant while keeping the belt off him. Do you really want 6 months of main event big show matches? I love him, but I dont. He also doesnt need a belt to be over.

Now compare him to Kahli....yeah, they are doing him right.

[D Mac]

That Chinese guy in Rush Hour 3 is bigger, right?

[Sebastian]

guys guys guys, quite obviously Big Show is EATING thats where he is no wonder he is so fat :lol:

[Xero]

I wasn't aware "eating" was a place.

You can eat in a place, and you can eat a place, but eating isn't a place.

And what happened after he won the WWF Title? He had that ridiculous feud with the Bossman over his father's death, squashed his ass at Armaggeddon, and then dropped the belt to Triple H on an episode of RAW IS WAR.

And his second one? He beat Lesnar, sure, but it was due to Heyman backstabbing him, and Show dropped the belt to Kurt Angle the very next month on PPV.


Much of Show's career has been him being used as a mid-card guy, often as a kind of "super sized" enhancement guy, giving clean wins to tons of people. He was in one WrestleMania main event and was eliminated first.

The guy is a fucking giant and a pretty entertaining one at that, and in my eyes atleast, the company has never REALLY given him the ball and let him run with it as "the guy" and "the champion." He was never built as a monster who would take the title and run through everyone, building up to that big eventual underdog vs. Big Show match where he would drop the belt. The closest thing they had to that was his ECW Title run, and even that didn't last long enough.

So if you want to say that Big Show has had "legit" World Title runs, then that's fine. But to me they seem quite on par with the runs of guys like Rey Mysterio, Chris Jericho and Chris Benoit, and all of them deserved more.
