The Big Show wrestled for WWE for more than two decades before moving over to AEW in 2021. The 'World's Largest Athlete' spent a big part of his last few years filming "The Big Show Show" on Netflix.

The show was later canceled, which allowed Big Show to return to WWE. The superstar has been a part of several movies in the past, but many of these were either cameos, or went direct-to-video. Knucklehead, Jingle All The Way, The Waterboy, and Vendetta are just a few films in his itinerary.

While 'The Big Show Show' was initially seen as his big break, it didn't do well. The 49-year-old is now an active part of AEW's roster after hanging up his acting shoes.
