was he upset that someone else has a punch? And while I'm here what the hell is that thing Roman is doing holstering his fist?

It was awkward seeing him almost no selling the Superman Punch. I chalk it up to Roman not charging up his punch before doing it. Like Paul Phoenix, it more devastating when super charged.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.
He sold it like it was a minor nuisance, like a fly was in his face rather than being punched.

Sometimes these things are dependent, I guess, like if someone gets superkicked and then turns around into a Pedigree or spear, without falling over. Also, possibly a botch.  |

Because it's Big Show. He's been doing that kind of thing in the WWE for almost 20 years. It takes a lot more than 1 punch to knock him down.

Because no-selling the Superman Punch would just make Roman Reigns look stronger.

I think the thing he does is cock his fist like you would a shotgun. He's miming cocking it for extra force or something. Silly but probably goes over well with the kids.

I don't care how stupid looking or potentially injury inducing it is, I want to see both Show and Roman try for their big punches at the same time only to have them collide and they spend the next minute selling their respective knuckles.

A second Superman Punch and he is staggered. SPEAR! Big Show is down, 1, 2 and 3 Roman Reigns does it!" |

And makes Show look like a threat and actual challenge for Reigns so when he gets the victory over him. |

Big Show's mastery of his own WMD allowed him to be mostly unfazed by Roman's secret art.

Big Show once tried to nosell being hit by a car. This is par for the course.

Because you can't super punch someone who can super punch?

Rumor is that Roman potatoed Show and damaged new dental work he had done. The rumor goes that Big Show got caught up in the moment and got pissed, no-selling the punch and yelling things at Roman about how he his punch was nothing. Supposedly management was pissed about this.

It'll be like that scene in Story of Ricky where Ricky and the guy punch at the same time, and the other guy's hand just explodes. The cost of the special effects to do it will be worth it, trust me. |
