#3 The Big Show and The Miz

After the Big Show's six-month-long partnership with Chris Jericho ended, WWE quickly paired him up with another smaller trash-talker to take on the newly reformed DX. The Big Man was abruptly put together with The Miz by Raw guest host Jon Heder to face Triple H and Shawn Michaels in early 2010. They displayed enough chemistry to stick together and won the Unified Tag Team Championships from DX a few weeks after they began teaming.

The tag team division was not at it's best heading into WrestleMania 26, but Sho-Miz did pretty well. After a short but successful title defense at 'Mania against John Morrison and R-Truth, Sho-Miz lost their titles against the Hart Dynasty on the night of the 2010 WWE Draft. After the match, the Big Show turned on the Miz and knocked him out with his signature punch. Without much of a tease to it, their break-up was almost as abrupt as their formation.

The Big Show moved to SmackDown that night and both men would eventually get decent world title pushes in the near future, but one must wonder how much better would The Awesome One's WWE Championship reign would have been had he been flanked by the World's Largest Athlete.
