Big Show is 2 time WWE Champion, 2 time World Heavyweight Champion, former ECW Champion and 2 time former WCW World Heavyweight Champion and the only man to have held all four championships. He is also a former Intercontinental champion, United States Champion, 3 time Hardcore Champion, 11 time tag champion in WWE and 3 times in WCW.
He also has become known for his special attraction matches at Wrestlemania much like Big John Studd's Body slam Challenge. Show competed in a Sumo wrestling match against Sumo Champion Akebono at Wrestlemania 21 and took on boxing great Floyd "Money" Mayweather at Wrestlemania 24.
The Big Show to me always seemed like someone who had the greatest potential to be one of the best ever in the business because he had the size, the speed, the personality and the look. But throughout his career, he's had many slow periods where he just seemed to be going through the motions or just not really caring all that much about his position and it was very apparent.
The Undertaker prior to Wrestlemania 18 stated that to him the Big Show was the biggest disappointment in this business because he was someone who had all the natural gifts and potential but didn't care enough to stay in shape and spent too much time just generally not giving a shit. And Show even said he was embarrassed himself especially when he got sent to OVW to retrain and get his mind right.
I've always like Show since his debut in WCW and his WWE run has had its share of bumps but overall I'd rate it at least a 7.5 out of 10. It surely could have been better but I'm not sure if Show just got lost in the shuffle or was thrown into the main event before he was ready early in his career and wasn't quite ready for the responsibility.
It seems that in the past year or so, he's began to pick up steam again and has had some good feuds with Mark Henry, Sheamus, Daniel Bryan, and seemingly with the Shield currently so hopefully he keeps up the momentum.
What do you guys really think of Show and how would you rate his career overall? Success or bust?
