Big guys don't necessarily have to be monsters. Big guys don't have to be monsters to get over. Big Show was popping the crowd big time when he was immitating people. It was funny, it was entertaining and he was getting over nicely. Thats all gimmicks really need to do - Get people over.

Fuck credability. I mean Eugene really has no credability, but hes popping the crowd more than anyone on the regular RAW roster at the moment.

Hell, if you want to talk credability, Big Show has had none for his entire heel stint of the last 3 years. A monster? Oh no, quiver in fear as this 7ft tall guy throws cruiserweights around like he has been doing for his entire career. His title reign at the end of 2002 was a complete bomb, Rey Mysterio who he repeatedly beat, and is lower on the card than him is more over.
