I just looked at Smackdown's roster, and Big Show is officially Smackdown. Then it hit me that he did get drafted to RAW this year, and technically was a RAW superstar when Henry injured him.
Now I know the split is very relaxed anyway, so this isn't a thread about that.
He's much better off on Smackdown, but thats gotta be the sneakiest roster move for a big name ever. It just kinda happened. Hell, I bet a jobber or two switching shows would actually get someone to notice more than this one.

Batista in 2010 has to be up there - they quietly moved him from SmackDown to Raw while they were changing things over after the draft.

Just goes to show that the WWE doesn't have interest in any sort of long-term planning for most storylines, and pretty much makes stuff up on the fly.

I would never have picked up on this, I didn't even realize he was on RAW.

Remember right after this year's draft, when Alex Riley was on Smackdown for, like, a whole week?

Riley remained on RAW because he was The Miz's employee.

Didn't Yoshi Tatsu go from Raw to appearing in a random Smackdown Battle Royal last year?

It's like when Triple H showed up exclusively on Raw for 3 months straight in 2009 and then they drafted him there
"Oh my god, Triple H is now on Raw!"

Huh. I actually forgot Big Show was drafted to RAW.
Well played, WWE.

I'll be honest if I didn't remember Show getting hit by ADR's car in the summer, I would have forgotten he was a RAW guy.
My guess is that he became a SD guy when he returned in exchange for Brodus Clay.
