He never lived up to the expectation to be Andre, because there already was an Andre. People had seen Andre, so why should he be expected to get just as over on the same esteem 30 years later?
The whole point of the 8th Wonder of the World spectacle was that it was something you hadn't seen.
Now, a 7 foot giant is always going to be a spectacle, and Big Show is, but there was no way people were going to be in awe of him like Andre.
Especially in the 90s and beyond, where people are far more jaded and can see more of everything.
It was a different case when Andre The Giant was making the rounds like a sideshow attraction.
