Loss Posted November 10, 2014 Author Report Posted November 10, 2014 Jim Ross interviews Big Show about his father passing away. Oh boy. This wasn't even Russo, even though it was his influence obviously. Did anyone joke at the time that they thought Andre was his father?
Tim Evans Posted July 24, 2015 Report Posted July 24, 2015 Big Show tries to show off his acting chops but it doesn't go over well. At least this leads to one of the best moments in WWF history.
tim Posted January 17, 2016 Report Posted January 17, 2016 Why have they always made Big Show cry so much? The idea of Show coming to the realization that he's been coasting on his physical ability and not really putting his all into wrestling and turning that around to give him a major main event push is good in theory.
soup23 Posted September 8, 2017 Report Posted September 8, 2017 Big Show's father doesn't have much time. I really hated this angle.
PeteF3 Posted November 19, 2017 Report Posted November 19, 2017 Oddly the climax of all this (as well as the follow-up with Show's mother) was one of my Dad's all-time favorite angles--as a retired police officer and fan of the heels, he was a huge Boss Man fan. Now having gone through a time earlier this summer where my Dad went from vaguely ill to dead from pancreatic cancer in the span of a few weeks this is...well, odd to look back on. I'm not going to pretend I'm suddenly offended now, nor will I ever defend this as good booking. This interview specifically is a particularly low point of this whole feud.
Loss Posted November 29, 2017 Author Report Posted November 29, 2017 I just had a horrifying thought. If it was the Attitude Era right now, would Russo book Big Boss Man to "shoot" a black wrestler to create an edgy storyline? Ugh.
