Big Show is so unbelievably big, so athletic, and he can actually talk for himself. He's Andre the Giant version 2.0. Americanized. He should've been built up as the unstoppable monster. Instead he's been beaten by just about everybody. He should've been the Andre of the new generation, but instead he's kind of just another guy.
The thing with a "monster" gimmick is that it has a shelf life. He wouldn't be able to be on top forever, he would HAVE to lose at some point. And the more that happens the more the "mystique" is chipped away at.

More so, would you trust him to be on top given his penchant for laziness?
