5 WWE Superstars who should retire in 2017

2: Big Show

Similar to Kane, Big Show has also seen himself on the losing end of many feuds since his debut in 1999. Though being one of the most decorated talents in the company with reigns as World, U.S., Intercontinental, Tag Team, and Hardcore Champion, the overbooking of face and heel turns have created a lack of consistency for Big Show. The fans have not been able to buy into his character without having to be disappointed a short time later.

He has been a great acquisition for the company during his 17-year tenure, proving with matches against Brock Lesnar, Mark Henry, Sheamus, and Roman Reigns that his enormous size does not create many limitations in the ring.

At 44, Big Show has created a hall of fame resume, even having to make outsiders such as Akebono, Floyd Mayweather, and Shaquille O’Neal look good. Despite these accolades, even fans are getting tired of him as an on-air talent, as “Please retire!” chants have made its way on television during his matches.

Big Show was recently drafted to the Raw brand but has yet to be utilized. Recently, he did state in an interview that he will retire after WrestleMania 33. Hopefully, this is not a work, as it is indeed time for Big Show to hang up his boots.
