The Big Show wasn’t known for his dexterity in the ring later in his career
WWE star the Big Show will be remembered for his sheer size and power. The 48-year-old initially made his name in rival promotion WCW but became one of the most destructive forces after coming to WWE.
Show was also known for his incredible KO finisher but his chokeslams will never go old. The 48-year-old won several titles during his wrestling career, but his game was built around power.
However, Show also had a different side to his in-ring persona way back when. An old clip resurfaced on the internet with Show performing a Kip up.
Shawn Michaels is known for his incredible Kip ups but Show didn’t look half bad when pulling off the move.
The 48-year-old also joked that his long hair was the reason how he could perform the astonishing move:

This clip was from his WCW days and Show did look a lot different to what he does now. The 48-year-old went with the bald look in recent years and was even involved in a huge match just after WrestleMania 36.
Facing the new champion
The Raw after WrestleMania highlighted that Show faced off against Drew McIntyre right after the Scot won the WWE title.
McIntyre had beaten Brock Lesnar in a gruelling encounter but Show wasn’t going to let the Scot off the hook.
However, McIntyre showed off his impressive ability by defeating Show and keeping hold of his crown.
Show hasn’t been seen much on WWE since, but he is still one of the greatest ever to have stepped in the ring. The 48-year-old could do it all and had some memorable runs over the years.
The WWE star is still busy with other media appearances, but he should make some appearances from time to time.
