For a supposedly “dominant” monster, Big Show sure has lost of a lot of matches throughout his WWE run. The World’s Largest Athlete has won just 53% of his 1,411 matches since joining the company, with his WrestleMania record standing-out as particularly poor.

Big Show’s first WrestleMania came back in 1999, when he lost to Mankind via disqualification. From there, he want on a disastrous run that saw him drop six consecutive matches to the likes of John Cena, Triple H, and non-wrestlers Akebono and Floyd Mayweather.

In fact, Show has just a single one-on-one WrestleMania victory to his name, that being his ‘Mania XXVIII victory over Cody Rhodes. The rest of his victories either come through tag team matches or his triumph in WrestleMania 31’s Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal, compounding the fact that despite his massive size, Big Show is just isn’t a strong “big match” performer.

WWE haven’t always treated Show with the respect he deserves, and his monstrous aura has taken a number of disastrous hits over the years. Still, his WrestleMania record is startlingly bad, and the deeper you dive, the worse it gets. With his long-expected match with Shaquille O’Neal seemingly in jeopardy, it doesn’t even look like Show will have a chance to pad his lowly record in Orlando next month either.
