Discuss the Big Show

I'm personally very high on Show right now. I think he's been very consistent since coming back. They've given him some good people to work with instead of having him float around and switch back and forth to heel/face every week, and he actually looks like a threat, which is how a man of his size should always look (Kane). In fact, I would go so far as to say that I wouldn't mind a Show title reign on SD or Raw at some point, even if it is just as a transition champ. I think he would probably be one of the best choice for transition champ actually, especially at this stage.

What interests me about him now is his new finisher, the Knock Out. Other guys have tried this, or a variation of this with mild if any degrees of success. In Nash's beginnings with the WWF he had a punch as a finisher, changed in favor of a powerbomb. Crush used a heart punch with the DOA. Neither really seemed to get over so much, but Show's KO is doing all kinds of damage. I want to attribute that to the fact that he came back having trained in boxing and then jumped into the main event, so the move already started being sold on the likes of HHH, Taker, and now even Cena.

He's capable of being a funny guy, a big bastard, a tweener, everything, but he rarely gets his props. The only real issue I see with him is his weight. He seems to be packing on the pounds again. Where do you see him going? What do you think of his finisher? Championship in the future? Discuss anything else Big Show related here.
