Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted June 30, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted June 30, 2011 Wasn't the point behind "The Big Show" that the initials spelt TBS, an obvious dig at WCW. Thats not obvious at all. I doubt they were up all night thinking of names to go with the "TBS" initials. He was originally called "The Big Nasty" Paul White, but they thought it was shit.

King Pitcos Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Remember when he first started and they couldn't settle on a name for about a month? "Big Time" Paul Wight was his name for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendell Cooley Posted June 30, 2011 Author Share Posted June 30, 2011 Wasn't the point behind "The Big Show" that the initials spelt TBS, an obvious dig at WCW. Again, similar to Triple h to an outsider it seems really dumb but over time you just get used to it. Â Even for Vince that sounds a bit wacky. Where did you hear it?

Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted June 30, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted June 30, 2011 I remember thinking Nigel McGuinness was the worst wrestler name ever when I first heard it. I got used to it though. Â Michael McGillicutty is the worst in WWE right now. Especially retarded when you consider that his real surname has more fucking potential to draw any money in the wrestling business than his bland character ever will.

ThePhenom Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 How about Test? I've never understood the meaning behind that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Impact Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I think it was from an old issue of RAW magazine, again it was a subtle hint with the fact they were calling him the Big Show implied he'd come to the big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra1000 Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I remember him being called just Paul Wight for a while, maybe i got it wrong. On his debut JR definately says something like "bah gawd its the giant, its paul wight" or words to that effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted June 30, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted June 30, 2011 I like the name Big Show. It's unique. Plus, it makes me laugh when ring announcer Justin Roberts introduces him as 'The Bitch-O!' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnum Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Bully Ray is a hilariously bad name, although I fucking love the way the character's developed since he took it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
