The Big Show has seen a lot of things during his impressive tenure in the pro wrestling business. He relates to other big men and also takes a liking to other sports entertainers who don’t quite fit the usual mold. Show is taking his backstage role as a mentor seriously and is continually seeing the benefits of his advisement.
He is a fan of Nia Jax and her ability in the ring. Big Show was backstage watching the #1 contender match for the Raw Women’s Championship just like the rest of us. But Big Show had a very special attachment to the important women’s match leading to SummerSlam.
“It is a testament to Sasha’s ability and a testament to Nia Jax as well. I’ve been trying to help Nia a little bit on the side.” Big Show told Still Real To Us’ Kyle Stevens. “I want to make her understand what the business is about and what her role in it is. Those two on Raw put on one heck of an amazing competition. For me, at 45 years old and being a 23-year veteran, I got lost in the match […] I got to be a fan while watching it. I was hollering up and down in the gorilla position. Seeing all those counters…it was such a great and competitive well-done match.”
The Big Show also mentioned WWE Network’s upcoming all-female tournament as a testament to how far women’s wrestling has come in WWE. “It was a tribute to those two athletes and also for the WWE on how they move forward and expand that division. With the ‘Mae Young Classic’ and tournaments like that…it’s just amazing with how the women’s division is changing.”
WWE’s women’s roster has seen a lot of change in the last few decades. Even in the last couple of years, there have been several strides taken to put each side of the roster on an equal playing field. Big Show obviously sees the value in these amazing female entertainers and wants to help one Girl Who’s Not Like Most Girls as much as he can.
