Right now, The Big Show's proposed WrestleMania 33 match with Shaquille O'Neal is up in the air. Talks had stalled between the basketball legend and WWE, and that caused frustration for Show; the giant even openly discussed his annoyance during several interviews last week, outright bashing both parties for failing to strike a deal.

A fresh interview with Yahoo Sports this week revealed a calmer Big Show, and even though he's faced with the prospect of losing a marquee slot at 'Mania, the more generous side of Show's personality shone through.

Noticeably leaner and in the best shape he's been in years, The Big Show has confronted Braun Strowman several times over the past few months on WWE television, and that's something Show himself would like to capitalise on before it's too late.

During the chat with Yahoo, Big Show said he would love to put Strowman over properly and pass the torch to a fellow giant before his current full-time deal with WWE expires in February, 2018; it may be too late for WWE to build this before 'Mania, but that doesn't mean it can't happen afterwards.
