Speaking of underrated matches featuring Big Show... Big Show and Kane again have their paths cross on this list, this time in a Triple Threat match for Raven's WWE Hardcore Championship. To suggest the hardcore title is anything more than a garbage belt, one designed to inspire car crash-like matches full of weaponry and death-defying spots, would be a mistake. It was what it was and at WrestleMania 17, the three Superstars involved in the gigantic bout delivered one of the best matches in the history of that particular championship. Raven bumped around the ring and the backstage area, even enduring being thrown through a glass window. Big Show was destructive, dishing out pain to both of his opponents, but also taking it as well. At one point, he was even slammed through a wall backstage by his Big Red Monster opponent. The match was wild, chaotic and violent, just as fans had come to expect from the hardcore division. It was the clever use of spots and placement of them throughout the bout (including one involving golf carts) that helped elevate it past the normal fare and delivered Big Show's WrestleMania resume its second straight above-average match.
