10 Most SCATHING Times Wrestlers Buried WWE
1. The Big Show Goes Off
No critic has ever said anything quite so scathing about WWE as one of its most tenured and decorated independent contractors ever: the Big Show.
Not that it matters, since the worst people will deny the truth to themselves regardless, but the explosion of the podcast market has badly exposed the "You weren't there!" takes propagated by Bruce Prichard. The Big Show was there.
And he absolutely f*cking hated it.
The experience of watching a typically dire episode of Monday Night RAW isn't a good time, subjectively. The eyes glaze over. The cringe is still palpable, the mind still perplexed, but mostly it's just WWE happening, unable to cut through a numbed husk immune to its awfulness. It is what it is. There's no hope left, nor is there any disappointment really. Maybe it once elicited fury and despair, at a time when it was thought the product might improve, but even then, it probably wasn't bad enough to wish a hammer into existence so that one could bash oneself in the bridge of the nose with it.
Show disagreed on Talk Is Jericho:
"I hate TVs. TVs I just want to bash myself in the head with a hammer, 'cause they're just long, useless, time-wasting, bullsh*t days where you sit around all day for some freakin' idea that absolutely sucks."
This, to clarify, isn't something Wight said after the fact as a "bitter ex-WWE guy" who had shored up in AEW.
He said it in 2017.
