10 Live Observations From WWE Raw Live Event Barclays Center 

8. The Big Show Didn't Do Much

After the tag match, Bo Dallas got on the microphone and said that he didn't deserve to lose. He went on to say that nobody on the roster could beat him, and demanded someone come out. WWE has been doing this at house shows for years, and it's usually an opportunity for Big Show, Kane, or Mark Henry to come out and squash the heel. This time it was Big Show, who didn't even have a match with Dallas - he simply punched him out and left.

The Big Show has gotten in good shape during his time off, but he certainly didn't do much here. It's no secret that he's planning on retiring after his WrestleMania match with Shaquille O'Neal, so are his improvements simply cosmetic? Is he on his last legs as a performer?

Either way, given that Show was recently the victim of an online death hoax, it could be worse.
