#9 Big Show - 2008

Still around
Still around

After being one of the most dominating performers in the history of WWE and WCW, the Big Show departed WWE in early 2007, having last wrestled in December 2006. Show left WWE due to being physically wrecked and having several nagging injuries.

After slimming down more than 40 pounds, Big Show returned to WWE in February 2008, during a crazy segment with Rey Mysterio and boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr., which resulted in a match between Show and Mayweather at WrestleMania 24. And now 11 years later, the Big Show remains with WWE to this day.

The Big Show's comeback should be deemed highly successful as it has lasted more than 11 years now and during that time, he has won several more Championships, including being World Heavyweight Champion once again in 2011 - 2012.

Big Show has arguably had the best wrestling run of his career this time around. Even to this day, he still shows up for sporadic angles.
