#3 The Big Show

One-man Tag Team
One-man Tag Team

The largest athlete in the world has played a crucial role in not just the success of the blue brand, but the WWE as a whole. He has been one of WWE’s longest-tenured superstars.

The first edition of SmackDown saw him defend his tag team championship alongside The Undertaker against Kane and X-Pac, as well as The Acolytes.

The two great men of SmackDown managed to defend their title against the other two teams, and remained the tag team champions. However, Big Show defended the titles single-handedly as The Undertaker joined the commentary team, because he was playing the role of Big Show’s mentor at the time.

On SmackDown 1000, we saw The Big Show return and turn heel in the process when he choke-slammed Kofi Kingston through the announce table. In the meantime, The Bar worked off the distraction and beat The New Day to win the SmackDown Tag Team titles for the first time.

It was a good scene, as The Bar handed the championship titles to the big man in the middle of the ring, and allowed him relive the moment.

Big Show is currently the only active wrestler who was part of the original mix, and is still competing for the company on a full-time basis.
