Since he's such a big part of things lately I thought I'd ask.
Are you glad he's such a big part of the best for biz story? Are you looking forward to his match with HHH or title shot at Orton or wherever this is heading? Do you enjoy his matches in general? Are you on the verge of tears constantly too?
Personally I don't care for the guy but wanted to know what you crazy kidz thought.

Seems like a chill guy who seems to enjoy himself out in the ring as a face. As a heel he's bleh but he can really pull of the happy giant pretty well.

I've never cared for him. Even as The Giant in WCW, he bored me to tears. Being primarily a WCW watcher, I was so happy when he left and went to the WWF/WWE.

He's a 7 foot 500 lb (unintentional)comedy wrestler. He's alright overall but it's 2013.

Good guy, underrated performer, don't care for him being in a main event story line for the WWE title though.

He plays a better babyface in storylines (even if his delivery is hammy, but hamminess in wrestling is never bad), though he wrestles better as a bully heel.

We're in 2013, he should definitely not be a big player in top angles.
Remember when WWE would shit on WCW for keeping Hogan, Flair etc. in main events during the late 90's?

The only part of the New Corporation storyline that I don't like. Never been a fan of Big Show to begin with but the fact that he's still considered a main event talent in 2013 is pretty depressing.

I'm very conflicted. I love Show but I really don't feel like he should of been the - excuse the pun - "Big" part of this story in the long run. Bryan could still be the final part of the story when he overcomes the Authority & wins the title, but that is becoming a slimmer chance of happening as each Raw goes by. I wouldn't be shocked if Show comes out with the title at Survivor Series & continues holding the title until Wrestlemania, where he faces HHH for it.

He's ok. When he's funny he's funny, but he's been around forever and I'm sort of tired of him

Seems like a good dude that has cleaned up what he used to be in the early 2000s, but I haven't been able to stand his character for a long time. His matches got considerably better when Sheamus/ADR were able to carry him at the end of last year, but he is an atrocious face.

Big Show is f***ing awesome. That's all I have to say about that.

I actually think that as more time passes, the better he gets. Big Show has played his role to perfection in the Corporation angle. Also, he probably has the best comedic timing of anyone on the roster.

Big Show is okay, but I really don't like that he's pretty much the top face in the company right now. I wish that the whole "financial troubles" storyline (or something similar) went to someone else, that he wasn't constantly booked to be more important than Bryan, and that a younger talent would be feuding with Orton for the title instead.

I like the Big Show.
But it is f***ing ridiculous that he is in the main event in 2013. His role should've been scaled back years ago.
Gradually lower him to the gate keeper position of the upper card that so many bigger veterans have done in the past. And, while trying to cradle and restore what credibility he has left in him, phase him slowly into an Undertaker/Rock/Brock type role of coming out as a special attraction a couple times a year.

Big Show is severely underrated. If you look at him as a performer? He's one of the best big guys in the business of all time. Factor in his ring skills, promo ability, feeding into the crowd, comedy, look at everything and you get a amazing performer. People might dislike how he's always in big name angles but the fact is looking at the total package he's underrated. Luckily for him, he has the credentials to be put into these positions.
Personally however I admit that his position in the Authority angle shouldn't be as so. I see him failing and another star takes a shot at it. I have no problem with him honestly. He is who he is and he's great at what he does. He really looks like he loves his job.

I've really enjoyed his work lately. He cuts good promos and is a pretty good actor(hence why they are always throwing him in angles that involve him crying). For his age and size, he's a great wrestler too.
