The cringes.... Ughhh look I'm a proud American and many of my best friends are active military, but that was just so stupid.
Thoughts?

Good to see he's not taking responsibility for all this.
He had the flag replaced, so everything that followed is because of him.

I was waiting for him to burst into tears. He came close, but wasn't quite there unfortunately.
But yeah, if that promo was meant to make us root for the guy it made me want to see him get his ass kicked more. Then again, Show could resurrect Martin Luther and Mother Theresa and travel back in time to KO Hitler and I'd still want the guy to go the hell away.

This feud and these Rusev feuds in general if anything have made Russia look more endearing than the USA...

I think Show does a great job emoting and everything.
However, I'd rather see him as more of a menacing over the top Giant than this regular, aw shucks guy that is super in tune with his feelings.

People were complaining about how dull the Giant was in WCW in 1997 on the AOL newsgroups.
You guys are tough SOB's to sit through his presence 17 years later.

I can't figure out why WWE tries to continually milk Big Show for sympathy, when Show just isn't a sympathetic presence at all...
I can only ever think of him anymore as the lame, lumbering oaf that Cody Rhodes kept portraying him as in the "WHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" videos.

How can he be sympathetic when he's bigger and stronger than everyone else? It's ludicrous. But also, why isn't this feud between Rusev and Big E, as a way of elevating both guys? Hopefully, after Rusev gets rid of Big Show and Mark Henry, Big E will become a bigger deal for him.

It was almost the only part of Raw that I saw, and I couldn't stop laughing - I thought the whole thing was hilarious.

American troops are above reproach and cannot ever be disrespected, says Big Show.
Ask inmates at Abu Ghraib, says Lana.

But there's no reason that Big E can't be built back up, and become a real threat to Rusev. He's more sympathetic than either 'I just knock people out' Big Show or 'Hall of Pain' Mark Henry, that's for sure.

That is true and I hate typing that (Big E really got the short end of the stick with Rusev). But dont worry, that young up and comer John Cena may be the man that rises up to defeat Rusev for America!

He didn't think of any kind of consequences that would happen cause of that stunt. He only cared about trying to be funny that he changed the flags. That bastard.

This has nothing to do with it but I need to unburden myself - I really, really hate Big Show. I've hated him for nearly fifteen years.

I didn't see it. What did he say? He basically said that Rusev "crossed the line" by kicking the soldier than ran into the ring.
