That is how he became even more garbage status cause he would let hulk ho him out incessantly.
Not to menation Nash tried to honestly kill giant with the poochie bomb.
Giant had to jump to wwf.
All because hulk buried him and made him look like a ho so much.
Still to this day he never recovered and the wwe will ho him out the same way hulk did with the same pattern, too.
To the point I really think big show may have had wells of untapped potential as a performer. Yet neutered himself trying to fit in with hulk and the boys.
When realistically, he should have never agreed to ever job to hogan originally.
If he never jobs to hogan in WCW.
I think he would have been an incredible charismatic talent who had convincability.
Instead of rhe guy who was big who just took the check.
As real talk, big show could do it all but I think they broke his spirit so much living in fear of the dude being a bigger draw potentially than his contemporaries.
They kept basically pulling the rug from under him.
There have been hordes of times.
where by accident the wwe and WCW would use him in some capacity.
before they realized how talented he actually was and then felt threatened by show.
The early giant was actually worth a damn and I saw El Gigante to know the difference originally.
By the time hulk phoney orange goblin ass ruined his draw.
He was never the same.
Yet there have been moments where I was like big show or giant was accidently actually really really good.
He was an excellent parody comedy character before the showster made them live in fear in wwe as well.
He was excellent when in his element saving his really pretty wife in an angle.
He was excellent when paired with other doghouse talent and they had to work hard for their spot like with jericho and a few other odd pairings that worked as well. Even his sheamus program was a delight. His bryan, hall of pain feud was excellent. His scared of del Rio is del rio's only good moment and it was because show was so good as a big coward it was awesome, and I hate del Rio but del Rio and show shined. The look on big shows face being scared and running from del rio were great.
Big show or giant was just spirit killed so long ago, by his contemporaries living in fear.
He just never gave it his all and you can tell it was because they broke his spirit and the threat of them breaking his spirit.
Just makes him dial it back and fall all the way back after he usually gets a little moment in the sun.
He is the epitome of the guy who gets a big check amd not riskin it.
Yet he had a lot more talent than his dim witted contemporaries, who broke his spirit at that time and they feared him.

Giant even had an awesome spectacle style drop kick and as a green guy.
Giant worked well before hogun brought his phoney ass along and ruined the giant.
Agreed on all counts
