#8 Big Show
If there’s a guy you want on your side, it’s a 7 foot 500 pound monster in the form of the Big Show. Before earning this name though, he performed as Paul Wight first of all, followed by Big Nasty, and settling on the Big Show name we all know and love.
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
Big Show debuted as part of the Corporation and used the group to establish himself as a major player in the WWE. Fresh off the back of a successful WCW run, Big Show clearly spotted that WWF was the place to be and made the switch.
He made his debut during the cage match between Vince McMahon and Steve Austin at St. Valentine’s Day Massacre: In Your House by coming from beneath the ring and actually inadvertently costing McMahon the match by throwing Austin through the wall of the cage.
He feuded with Mankind, firstly wrestling him at WrestleMania XV for the right to referee the main event. He finished the feud with Mankind in a Boiler Room Brawl, then turned face, punched McMahon and left the Corporation.
Since then, Big Show has had a glittering career in WWE, despite his less than stellar record at WrestleMania. He has won multiple Championships including the WWE Championship twice. There are too many to list here but the trophy cabinet I not short of belts that’s for sure!
Unfortunately, though he is still active with the company, Big Show has stated his intentions to retire in February of 2018. Here’s hoping he gets one last good storyline to cement his legacy in the business.
