At Sunday's WWE No Way Out PPV there was an angle involving The Big Show (who made his long-awaited return) and boxer "Pretty Boy" Floyd Mayweather Jr. which resulted in the 7-foot tall Big Show leaving with a broken nose.
This was a work, but appeared very real to fans as Big Show took some very stiff shots and was bleeding heavily from his nose and mouth. WWE wanted to make this look as real as possible and did a hell of a job in doing so. You can expect this to lead to something between and two at 'Mania and look for lots of media coverage on it tomorrow. Here is a recap of what went down taken from our No Way Out report:
The Big Show's music hits and he makes his way out to the ring. He shows off his newly trim body in a suit and says, "Guess who is back!" Big Show said he missed WWE and promises to become champion once again. He said it doesn't matter if it is Raw, Smackdown or ECW. Show said a lot of people make promises, but he has already been champion of Raw, Smackdown and ECW. He said it is only a matter of time before he becomes champion again. Show talks about losing over 100 pounds and that he is now faster, meaner and ready to be back in the WWE. Show notices an injured Rey Mysterio at ringside and grabs him. He starts slapping his bad arm and then looks over at Floyd Mayweather Jr. asking if he wants to do something. Mayweather shakes his head as Big Show throws Mysterio back in the ring. Show teases giving Mysterio a chokeslam. Show lifts Mysterio up and Mayweather jumps into the ring. Mayweather gets in Show's face and Mayweather's crew hits the ring to hold him back. Show takes off his jacket and Mayweather is let go. They stare each other down as Show smiles. Show pushes Mayweather away. Show then gets down on one knee mocking Mayweather's height. Mayweather then walks forward and punches Big Show a few times really hard. Mayweather then takes off with his team over the guard railing into the crowd. Shane McMahon runs out and holds Big Show back. Big Show's nose is busted open and he spits blood out. Show's nose looks legit messed up as Shane calms him down. Show backs up and leaves up the ramp with Shane. He smiles at the crowd with his nose and mouth really covered in blood. They show a few replays and Mayweather caught Big Show with some legit hooks. This was done incredibly well and came across great.
