Big Show is making history wrestling in the major wrestling federations: WCW, WWE,ECW,AEW
He didn't wrestle in the real ecw
@@davidholzer4155 Big Show was ECW champion but it was after WWE took it over
@@maniccrow5695 that's what David just said....
No chris Jericho did it
Wwecw* Big Show was feuding with Raven over the WWF hardcore title when OG Ecdub shut its doors in '01. Remember the invasion angle well as I was a teenager and finally got to see ECW/WCW guys here in the UK went to every 2001/2002 UK show.
He got embarrassed for a long time. In his prime he is unstoppable until WWE decides to turn him into comedic character. Good for him
@Elias Garcia Found the WWE bootlicker
If we was being honest here strowman is the next big show...
@Steve Giles how about his ecw run or wwe champion on smackdown run he wasn't treated like Andre but it wasn't that bad.
@@Allpurple_reign hes talking about how he treated him in todays wwe after the 2000s
His prime was in WWE.
Quite a shocker, always thought Wight was one of those lifers of the WWE, loyal to the bone. Only thing that would be a bigger shocker now would be if the Undertaker did the same!
Or Kane
Suprised to see you here. You make great videos
only thing is, Taker is retired. it'd be cool to make a segment with him sure. but i think Taker is too loyal
was thinking the same thing
If Undertaker goes to AEW
Mr Khan better book Undertaker vs Sting!
One of the biggest men in WWE just took the quietest step out of the company. Nobody saw this coming.

It's gonna be weird hearing the name, Paul Wight, instead of the Big Show.
WCW days I remember him being PW.
@@kevharr7 his debut back then in WWF when he attacked Stone Cold in the steel cage, he was called as Paul Wight before becoming the Big Show.
Don't forget The Giant
IT'll still be weird
As long as they don't call him The Large Presentation
This was truly an end of an era.
I hope Vince still gives him the very deserved spot in the hall of fame
I hope so to but probably not anymore
Probably not
Probably not. He might get the same treatment as everyone else
WWE's hall of fame is a joke... They include or exclude wrestlers in it at their will and in such manner that it should not affect their company in any manner... Like Hulk Hogan for Example, they removed him from HOF and his merchandise after his racist incident and later on reinstated him in company.... They'll induct Big Show in Hall of fame only when they feel its best for WWE promotional purposes 😏... So don't worry, its just a matter of time... If they can induct Kurt Angle in it even after his departure from WWE, then Big Show will surely make it in HOF...
@@harmansabharwal97 who knows. Maybe he might get the Chris Benoit treatment
This was the biggest surprise I've seen. I figured he would quietly retire from the ring and work behind the scenes at WWE. This proves very interesting.
Paul is a legit good dude.. I've had the privilege of getting his autograph(s),he signed a bunch of things.Some wasn't even related to wrestling.I won't ever forget that either. I'm all in with Paul.. 💯
He is a good guy to me,so there went that theory
His show on Netflix is pretty good too
@@Paganichi so you want to say he is a bad guy.
@@147waverly9 yea it's ok. Lol. They discontinued it now. He was doing another show room now AEW.
@@rounaksingh1017 💯
Not a single soul saw this coming
Can you please check out my new wrestling show tell me if it needs some work 🙏
Agree
@@welcometobwe8875 stfu
I highkey did
We always thought Big Show is WWE for life just like Kane and Mark Henry.
The problem with him in WWE was his character was no more than large person. He'd be inserted into things nonsensically and randomly because creative never seemed to really have anything for him. In WCW as The Giant when he had something to do, he had passion and intensity. I want to see that again.
His early character had some serious wit and humor to it. One of his best promos in WCW was when he was up in the crowd badgering Jeff Jarrett about the NWO giving him a wet match.. RFL.
The Same thing with Braun Strowman
his push was so erratic. sometimes he was portrayed as an unmovable monster and the other times he was a jobber. not to forget his abomination of heel-face turns.
This reminds me when everybody left WCW for WWF.
isn’t it the other way around?
@@spzm3x no, bc when wwf bought wcw, alot of wrestlers didn’t want to continue with it and join wwf vs wcw matches, most of them moved to Japan, or TNA like sting, the LWO crew went back to mexico, the NWO went to tna, stevie Ray went his own way. 60% of wcw roster didn’t want to be part of the wwf
@@MJMDrawings ahh i guess u are right in a sense
And how did that turn out 😆
@@nolancary4418 nah I was saying it as in all the Wrestlers left wcw and went to wwf remember like Eddie Y2J Big Show and few others then after that wcw went out of business.
Nothing is more satisfying than seeing Vince's ego being bruised 😂
why would it bruise his ego , big show is ready for retirement so i dont think it really bothers vince
I don’t think he gives two shits. I don’t think anyone tunes into Raw and says “I want to see big show win a championship today”
Why would Vince be bruised? Big Show is long past his prime, he's a not a top superstar anymore.
Big show is 50 years old with bad knees and he wasn’t even on the main roster he’s wrestled maybe 2 in the last year each match less than a couple of minutes and appeared on legends night
@@markrodger4409 it definitely bothers him
I like how the title of the video says “real reason”
The video: only mentions possibilities
They always do that smh
The guy talking is another British mark who reads dirt sheets
I got soooo shocked my cousin sent me a link that he left wwe for AEW I was shocked
If "Big Show" is WWE registered, he should be Grand Spectacle now.
Slightly Bigger Show
Gets my vote
Im glad you're not in the creative team discussing names lol
Should just call him "Big Paul"
@@brown_recidivist
How about..
That bloody great big bloke who is about to hit you...
Maybe The Big Man
No hate on Mox, Arn, Miro, Chris or any other ex WWE superstars but this might be one of the most shocking signings for AEW. He has been with WWE since 1999 and was just on WWE in January
Not shocked at all. His ring career is basically over, WWE did not give him what he was asking for, so he left. There is also the fact that he is neighbors with Jericho, and you never hear anybody talk about it, but apparently they are like best friends. They've even done movies together. I don't think WWE cares about him going to AEW.
@@chrisgullett4332 are u kidding??? They just lost one of their golden boys! However, it does make more room for more upcoming talent in the wwe. But there will never be another big show
I was pretty shocked when I found out Billy Gunn signed with AEW. Road Doggs contract is up with WWE this year and I'm hoping he goes AEW so we can see the Outlaws together again in some form.
@@lindsaychurch8749 No I am not kidding. WWE does not care about this nonsense that people like you always claim they do. For heaven sakes everybody always leaves and always goes back. Vince does not seem too concerned with anybody leaving when their contract is up. Literally 25 wrestlers in the past 15 years have left, talked bad about WWE, and Vince still hired them again. For all we know Vince could've sent him there. Vince does have a history of supposedly sending crew and onscreen talent to work for other companies. It is pretty clear he sent the NXT wrestler Tino to work for AEW, and AEW caught Tino, and fired him and he was instantly rehired by WWE. People still claim he sent Russo to work at WCW.
@@lindsaychurch8749 you must out your mind a 50 year old big man with bad knees who maybe appeared twice in the last year in ring 😂 he’s no golden boy
Big Show is a legend and deserves so much more respect than he gets from idiotic fans.
That's true i understand putting talent over, but the dude for his age and weight he still moves really good and for wwe atleast respect his legacy and everything his done with the companie.
@@fernandorivera2131 he can barely move in the ring
So we could see Shaq Vs Show and now The Giant and Sting are back on TNT
LMFAOOOO
Only wcw fans would know
@@thegorillaway8283 I know and never watched wcw
@@IntenseBluDevil2 yh that's true my bad
@@thegorillaway8283 all good m8 wcw died two years before I was born but I’ve done way too much research and played every single wwe game since SVR2011
It was insulting to be honest, only for the fact he wasn’t aloud to defend himself in the storyline.They made him look weak with no retaliation. All the years he’s worked there and that’s how they use him.
The way randy Orton punked him and he didn’t do anything I understand why he left they treated big show like a joke for a long time
Very long time
He didn't do anything to Mayweather . Big show stinks
@@russellm1883 nobody asked for your opinion
@@russellm1883 because WWE probably told him not too
"I'm not sure if AEW would ever be interested in Janetty"
Ouch. Realistic, but ouch.
@ilikethecokev2.... Are you Marty Janetty????
Place on area of burn
Nobody is interested in Marty Jobber Jannetti
No much a burn he’s far too old
He was upset with the WWE for years I'm not surprised he left
He has always speak well about WWE and how they used him so im shocked. Its rare for me to get shocked in wrestling anymore
He's probalby tired of life on the road. Remember WWE superstars travels full time, at Big Show's age that's tough now. He needed a lighter schedule and AEW will provide that.
@@VOAN true
I was shocked to hear this
Same
@Kevin FlipUOff Yeah, it's shocking because he was a slave for WWE especially making face character to shine.
When i heard this news it fill my heart with joy to see another of my childhood wrestlers who leftfrom that garbage company since they refuse to return to attitude and ruthless aggression era they will lose and lose and lose more and more I'm sorry but that's the truth alright we get it because of Benoit idk what everyone thinks but that doesn't affect the others it's been like decades since he's dead how could they become boring from a one wrestler which they ruin i heard a documentary but i forgot what it was about Benoit i only heard he suffered hard chair shots to the head which made him have some kind of concussion and something like that that way he became insane and was not himself Wwe knew it was their fault but they had to cover it up for their pathetic reputation well here's the result:no more pyro no more entertainment no more real wrestlers no more classic moments or scary even funny moments no more adult content no more attitude era no more ruthless aggression era no nothing everything is childish crap Screw Grumpy McMahon he destroyed everything🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Now Big Show can put over everyone in aew like he did in wcw and wwe!
Hes not wrestling if he was he was going to stay in wwe
Nah he will have a couple big title runs and it will work
@@geleneceline2310 he going to wrestle they already said he would
Big show could be the first and only person ever to hold the :
WWE world title
WCW world title
ECW title
AEW title
But no TNA/NWA title or ROH title yet.
In 3-5 years he will go back to wwe and main event the hall of fame class
of course he will
WWE made Big Show a joke. Letting jabronis bury him week after after. Thats a good decision signing with AEW.
@Wait What? he can still do both for awhile then transition to commentator or a stable manager.
@Wait What? also, losing every match at some point stops putting other wrestlers over. He definitely had more to offer the sport than what he was getting.
@Wait What? in or out of the ring...
Thank you Wrestlelamia for providing the true reason Paul Wight left WWE for AEW.
I did not expect Big Show to leave Wwe
Maybe we’ll see Big Show go up against Shaq after all.
th-cam.com/video/FM2uw0bqDy4/w-d-xo.html
Hmmm.
Why Benji?
HIS BIGGEST HEEL TURN EVER😂
I wonder if Vince shouted "TRAITOR" upon hearing this...
I know I did
I'm pretty sure Vince and Show still talk on the phone though even if Show is not working for him.
Paul Wight started in WCW as a ridiculous over pushed Gimmick, but through his career he really became a wrestling legend. Props to AEW for realizing his value
Cody was serious about Go big show
you posting the same comment in WhatCulture too 😂
well he knows Big Show's contract is expiring
They will book another Tables Match between Cody and him! 😃
Go BiG SHOW is a prophecy of what's to come.
WEEELLLLL
ITTSSS NOT THE BIG SHOWW
"It's Copied"
Not in a million years did I see this one coming
Big Show wrestling some people like Lance Archer, Wardlow, and Luchasaurus would be pretty cool 👍🏼
He's just doing commentary sadly
Dude that would be awesome 🔥🔥
Marko stunt
He will be always ''Big Show'' in my eyes.
Same 😔
The same thing I watch him
Wrestling in wwe a couple of times live
When he first came to WWE, He was Paul Wight
@@itachi-kun7736 really?
Once you go WWE you're always remember for that role
The content for this video as a whole was amazing, knowing the background story behind this move for him was the end goal.
And nothing about this leaked out. That's wild in this day and age of wrestling
Just the sheer amount of experience he’ll add to the looker room is priceless. Good signings without a doubt
We might get that Shaq Vs Big Show match we thought we were getting 5 years ago
Was a bit upset after hearing this today hes has been a big part of my life for many years, but then seeing how wwe treats their legends its easy to see why he left and all i can do is wish him all the best.
me when i found out big show singed with aew HOLY CRAP THEY GOT THE BIG SHOW HOLY CRAP HE SIGNED WITH AEW lol
Yeah. Massive shock to the system.
@@BeAGoodDoga Undisputed era theme starts.
@@aharonmrichardson3213 lol
Stephanie well hello there cutie pie 😍😍😍
@@014daddy hello
I love all your vids , keep up the good work
He just gave the biggest middle finger to Vince McMahon. What a heel turn. Or face turn, depending on how you see it.
AEW marks would probably think it’s a face turn.
imagine vince face when he heard the news😂
Yeah
Glad to see Wight put his foot down, as he knows what he worth both financially, and on levels of respect. Really looking forward to see what he does with AEW, happy for Paul.
The biggest embarrassment *VINCE* could face , is if *BIG SHOW* actually has a successful run at *AEW* which will just show that *VINCE* and the *WWE Writers* block the success of their superstars🤞....
Not really. Cuz his push would mean someone else in WWE isn't. So AEW would be sacrificing the same thing. Since they both have limited screen time
Big Show just gave Vince a "GIANT" middle finger.
Kane and Big Show i feel so sad how WWE treat them..
Hey man hope u feeling better from the food poisoining! Thank u for the video!
I've kinda noticed this with Kane too. They're the big strong tough guys. So one you beat them, it shows everyone that you have what it takes to be a part of that group. But then it happens to Kane and Show over and over and over and then they just don't even look strong anymore. It's no longer a major thing to beat them because now everyone has done it
Cody is also a familiar face to Big show/Paul. They had a few feuds and Big Show punched out Dusty Rhodes. Also I believe Big Show had matches with Lance in WWE.
"it could add additional viewers"
literally nobody new is gonna watch because the big show signed with aew... When was the last time anyone cared about the big show in WWE? The only reason this is 'big news' is because everyone thought big show was a WWE lifer.
But with him doing commentary it will draw more causal viewers to Dark. I'm grateful because I never watch Dark now I can from episode one and catch up. Is it good?
I'm actually interested and gonna watch live more now cuz of him. Love me some Giant
@@nebutate4675 dark is great but it gets really complicated especially in season 3 but if you like stranger things you will also like dark
I'll never forget when i was about 10-11 years old. My aunt took me to see a small time WWE house show. Got to see John Cena, Randy Orton, Triple H and a few others. Anyways Triple H and Big Show had a Hardcore match as the main event. I had bought a pack of signs at the merch stand with a bunch of different wrestlers on them and Big Show was on one of the signs. Big Show walked out and got into the ring. He looked towards us when he got into the ring and I held up my Big Show sign and he pointed at me and had a huge smile. I thought it was so cool. It's not like i got to meet him or anything but I'm 20 now and still is one of the coolest things I've experienced.
He deserve better, i can see Tony Khan will deliver the respect he deserve as a legend
Notification squad where you at?!?
Here
There is only one person big enough to step into the shoes of the illustrious leader of the Dark Order, and that is the enigmatic Mr Wight.
As a massive Big Show fan since childhood, I am both shocked and incredibly happy for Paul. It's time for a change, time for him to help the newer stars in a better way and time to show that he's still got plenty in the tank for a little while. With endless possibilities from a potential JeriShow reunion to finally having that WrestleMania-esque match with Shaq, the future looks bright for The Great Wight. I can't stop grinning, I really wish him all the best in becoming #AllElite.
Question: Can you still be inducted to the WWE Hall Of Fame even if you transfer to another promotion?
Glad to see AEW becoming WCW 3.0
Man the other wrestler AEW should snatch from the WWE is Samoa Joe. Man he's a really good commentator, but I hate to see him not wrestle.
Am very happy for paul. In wcw, he was brought in and used correctly. He could shock everyone with his strength and ability. The most memorable for me was when he moved the whole ring from the outside. He has always been a great worker, doing what is needed for the company.
I hope he actually gets to not only work with shaq, but also tag team with shaq to win the tag titles.
I hope he enjoys his time in aew, and brings them up with soon to be more fans in the stands by summer.
After all those Face/Heel Turns, this is the best one of all
He was treated weirdly for much of his tenure in the WWE. At some points he seemed heel and face in different weeks. He's had his emotional moments, moments of pure embarrassment (Vince's head between his cheeks), but then the WWE will still throw him randomly into an angle with the idea that he's some kind of unstoppable monster the Champ should be worried about.
Between Shaq and The Big Show match I have a bad feeling that someone's getting sued
I think this deal was in the making for quite awhile. Paul was fed up with WWE a long time ago, but he loves the business. I wouldn't doubt that he was interested in coming to AEW around the time Hardy and Brodie came over.
I also wouldn't doubt Paul tried to get a new contract with WWE that would fulfill him to keep him there, he was denied and Tony Khan had already basically worked out his contract with Paul, so when Paul's WWE contract ended, he had the option already to join AEW.
Next big contract negations are Daniel Bryan, and Sami Zayn.. should be interesting to see how their contracts work out in September, I still think Zelina Vega and Aleister Black are going to pop up soon as well.
Big Show said WWE was gonna pay for what Kurt Angle did to his hair, and the reason why he's now bald
What? Lore?
Kahn has that Saudi money, expect to see a lot more interesting additions to the elite.
I love the expression you put into the quotes
*Big Show is one of my favorites I had a feeling that something may have happened behind the scenes between him and WWE... it's like betrayal but then again it's not... It's just the nature of the business*
The other reason Why he left, was... The WWE Clearly and Unfortunately has Nothing to offer Anymore.... :(
*Okay but which is the real reason as your title states?*
*Ya'll click bait too much*
He actually faced Vance Archer on an episode of Smackdown. It was a squash handicap match against Hawkins, and Archer, but I might be the only one who watched it 😆.
You know, I wouldn’t be surprised if after the Cody vs Shaq match Paul steps in to face off with him. This could be the ultimate slap in the face to WWE who’s been trying to get for years!
Vince McMahon probably helped big show get that multi year deal just like he did with Bret hart.
After being with them for over 20 years and helping him become a star, Vince had a ALOT to do with it
And look how great their careers turned out. Oh wait...
One word: MONEY 💰
I'm looking forward to JeriShow reuniting
As a full die hard wwe fan in so heart broken but as a big show fan also I think its amazing on his part I'm glad hes doing this!!!!
He has been embarrassed enough in wwe
Now it's time to be embarrassed in the bush league for peanuts. Dat portfolio diversity 👊🏻
@@FamousMovieScenes09 it's not haha
Well if Vince would treat his wrestler with respect and not make the storyline suck maybe the wrestler would stay and start using the younger wrestler to maybe he wouldn't lose some many great wrestler
You're the type that thinks Hulk hogan and the four horsemen should still be on top . Out with the old , in with the new
@@danh2134 no I don't I think they should give the younger wrestler just much opportunity to wrestle as they do to the wrestler that been there awhile and wrestling back then was awesome to watch with hulk hogan and four horsemen and the wwf was awesome to watch back then to when Vince dad ran the company he knew how to run a company not like his son
This is gonna be talked about in a documentary someday. I'm calling it
You know for some reason I always felt like he should jump ship since he has such great knowledge of the business. He could help them in a lot of ways.
Jericho is gonna call him Big Show 😂😂😂
Nah hes going to say "you don't work here"
Jericho was in the WCW at the same time Paul Wight was.
Wwe made big show into a joke over the past 4-5 years the last memorable feud I can remember was him and sheamus and I cant remember when it was
2012
I assume we’re just eventually gonna see every classic superstar on aew. Pretty insane
I'm gonna miss Big Show in WWE but it's most likely for the best so he can be happier somewhere.
Can you imagine Big Show Managing Bear Country????? Holy god
WCW 2.0
No matter what happens big show will stay a wwe legend
Surprised to hear news like this. Glad though he’s with AEW, he’ll be use more properly use then WWE. Though wish he’ll come back for that WWE Hall Of Fame, truly a legend. Should’ve gotten another title run in 2015 and 2019.
should rename this video to "why we think big show left WWE for AEW"...such a bait video title
Reunite JERISHOW!!! Book it Tony!!!😂
Imagine, in his prime Paul Wight vs Lance Archer would be sweet! Edit: it would be funny if they called him Huge or large Show
😂😂👍
Would love to see Kurt Angle in AEW as he was the one who mentioned it on WWE
Just watch the wwe network old Nitro/Raw episodes and you won't want to watch any of the new stuff. 👍
For me the ruthless aggression era so much better than most things today
Big Show should of been booked more unstoppable then basically a jobber. Same with Kane, WWE makes him look soft now. Hoping he gets the respect he deserves at AEW.
Didn’t see this coming but I can’t say I’m surprised either. The last time I took Big Show seriously in WWE was probably 2002.
Edit: only a matter of time before he has to put Marko Stunt over clean.
Id like to see Paul get creative and do some unique hard nose monster stuff. Big Show and Archer could do some cool things for example. Also, Luchasauras... just saying.
Like your ideas big up!! 😁👍👍👍❤
