Yay from me. I've always liked Big Show. Never been too excited about the guy, but truthfully, for a guy his size, he's really good. Paul Heyman booking him worked wonders for the guy on SmackDown!, and made him relevant enough to win the WWE Championship again, and Heyman did the same for Show in ECW. When booked correctly, the guy can be an awesome addition to any roster.
However, when he's not, he often seems directionless and like he's just an extra, which kind of hurts his impact when he is used in a majorly constructive role. For example: After flouding around in a fairly meaningless feud against The Undertaker late last year (in which the matches were better than they should have been), the guy seemed really out of place in the World Heavyweight Title match at this year's WrestleMania.
If John Cena is going to take time off to film his movie or whatever (which I don't know if he will, because often he keeps up the busy schedule of doing both a movie and wrestling), I'd love for Big Show to be the guy who puts him out. The guy just needs a bit more hype sometimes, because his size lends him instant credibility.
