10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (Feb 8)
6. Big Show Hates Corey Graves' "Prayer Hands"
Here it is, the story hinted at during the article's intro.
Watch pretty much any show featuring Corey Graves on commentary, flip through to the bit where Michael Cole or Tom Phillips introduces the team, and you'll see Graves clasp his hands in a prayer motion. That's a hangover from his wrestling days, and Big Show f*cking hates it.
Craves told the Notsam Wrestling Podcast that Show regularly teases him for his "prayer hands" behind the scenes. The giant compares his trademark pose to Batman in The Lego Movie. There, Bruce Wayne's blocky alter-ego says, "Humble hands, humble hands' and makes the same shape.
Show has even told Corey that his commentary pose irks everyone in his family, and he should stop doing it immediately. There's obviously some light ribbing going on there, but Graves gets a kick out of such a gigantic dude quoting The Lego Movie.
