#1 Brock Lesnar and The Big Show break the WWE ring

It's by far one of the most iconic WWE moments that has been played over and over. Brock Lesnar vs. The Big Show from WWE SmackDown in 2003. The two goliaths battle each other only for a superplex from the top rope to bring the match to a halt. You'd think The Big Show would know better these days, right?

Former WWE referee Mike Chioda, who refereed the match, described the spot more:

"Oh, that [Big Show vs Brock Lesnar] was cool. Michael Hayes, everybody, Pat Patterson, the thing on that match they wanted me to do was to sell the collapse of the ring. And the way I did it, which I don’t know what I did, I just did what I had to do because it was actually pretty freakin’ cool. I’ve never been in the ring which is collapsing before. It’s just like, when they take the bump out of the corner, the ring collapses," said Mike Chioda (h/t Chris Van Vliet).
"They’re selling. They’re out like a light. I’m the one sitting up like, ‘Holy s**t. Just what the hell happened’, you know? And I remember them just screaming like, ‘Yes, yes, that’s we want, yes’. I mean it was just, and then the crowd’s like ‘holy s**t’. And it was just like, it was just one of them moments. The pop wasn’t as big as Rock and Hogan, but it was there," said Mike Chioda (h/t Chris Van Vliet).
