Kane and Big Show's "Wrestling" match

[Jim Stansel]

What was the story behind this match? I remember the storyline, but why did these two go out there on Raw have what for them is a technical styled match, and it looked like Big Show was loving every minute of it. Was this an audible they called or something just to mess with those who criticized the hosses big man style?

["St. Louis Viper" Buck Summers]

It was part of the May 19th angle. I didnt see it, so thats all I know.

[Jim Stansel]

i remember the angle i just didnt know why they wrestled a totally differant style of match that night, and seemed to be amused by it

[The Wrestling Rambler]

It was Big Show's attempt of having fun and trying to cheer Kane up, to take his mind off the May 19th thing. Not that it worked.

[Andrew is Good]

The story behind the match was Big Show just wanted to get Kane to lighten up. So instead of having a match where they beat the crap out of each other, a typical big man match, Big Show just technical wrestled with Kane. I was marking like crazy for it.

It was strangley fun to watch.

[Smokey McTrees]

Showed Big Show had a lot of talent. A precursor to his WWECW run.

[Jim Stansel]

ok, thanks, yeah i thought it was a fun match, and showed the talent these two had, i think the crowd was hella confused though.

f*** them.

[Sharpy Snow]

The crowd totally ruined a perfectly good match imo

There's nothing worse then a crowd starting the 'boring' chant. Especially when it's something like Regal V Finlay.

["St. Louis Viper" Buck Summers]

I hate crowds.

[Jim Stansel]

yeah i hated the crowds reaction, instead of respecting that talent they ruined a great unique match

[odanobunaga]

I watched this match and I didn´t hear a boring chant, but the crowd went dead.

[therob]

I was there live that night. I thought it was so cool to see. of course I was the only one in my section cheering when everyone else was sitting on there hands stuffing there faces with nachos and buying chain gang key chains.

[krazysane]

i loved that match lol


place crowds in wrestlecrap hof

[Tyfo]

Yeah the Cena mark crowds arent going to appreciate that.

Thus the utter silence during the London-Kendrick match on SD

[Spankymac is sick of the swiss]

I remember marking out during this match because Show looked like he was having a legitimately great time with it.

[The Raven]

I've never seen it. I was hoping for a youtube video of it.

I'd probably really like this match.

[TheDieselTrain]

I saw it a few weeks back and put it on my best of Kane dvd that I made.

I loved JR's comment where he said well cut my legs off and call me shorty I didnt expect to see a wrestling match. lol

After hearing how bad their PPV match was (the night before?) it was shocking and a pleasant surprise.
