10 Wrestling Matches You Should Watch To Prepare For WWE Extreme Rules
3. Big Show Vs. Alberto Del Rio - Last Man Standing Match (SmackDown 2013)
The Big Show is facing Roman Reigns in a Last Man Standing match at Extreme Rules, so it would be wise to check out a LMS match that Show has already had in his career. It was a January 11, 2013 World Title match on Smackdown when Show defended the gold against Alberto Del Rio. This was at a point when WWE wanted to turn Del Rio face and they used this match to tell that story. Since Show is obviously good at being a heel giant it made sense to do a match like that. Del Rio did an awesome job of making a babyface comeback, looking like he could take down the bigger opponent and ultimately getting the job done. The crowd really liked the story of the match. It was a memorable finish with Del Rio destroying Show with steel steps to wear him down. For the finish, Del Rio dumped the announce table onto show and it was enough to keep him down for a ten count, which led to Del Rio winning. They also did a rematch at the 2013 Royal Rumble with the same stipulation although the Smackdown match where Del Rio won the title was the better of the two.
