It’s been said multiple times, but it bears pointing out that WWE’s video team is quite good when it comes down to it.

Monday night, we were treated to a Big Show career retrospective the followed his 25-year career through WCW, WWF/E and even ECW, noting how he’s held every major title in WWE, all three world titles (the only wrestler to do so – even though it was the WWE version of ECW) and a bunch of other accolades.

If you haven’t been following WWE for the past 5-10 years and/or aren’t a cynical fan, Show looked like a true legend rather than the constantly turning, underperforming giant he’s been in recent years.

In short, the video package did a great job of casting Show’s career in the best possible light.
