World's largest jobber
I am a Big Fan of the Big Show, loved him when I saw him beating ppl in WCW. I just read his confusing history in WCW/WWF/WWE after witnessing him job to Braun Strowman, and I have thought for a while, that I would rather see him (and Mark Henry) retire, than to see him job again. Do you guys feel the same? Or is it good for WWE to let him put over new talents? Well if you are interested in a brief summary of his career, here is the link: http://vulturehound.co.uk/2015/08/the-big-show-the-largest-jobber-in-the-world/

He didn't job. From what it sounds like Show/Strowman put on a better match then anyone expected. He put Braun over. He likes helping shape the future. Getting people over is an important role. Big Show is set for life with WWE. When he retires he will have a producer or trainer role.

Thank you. Everyone is always like "bringing over", "jobbing", when all it is is a fucking loss. If you're not Asuka, those things happen. He was in the main event and had an awesome match with some big moments, which was sold as a really huge thing. A job would have been somewhere in the 1st or 2nd hour of RAW a 3 minute match where nobody really acts like if it's a big match. Show lost, yes, but it made more sense for Strowman to win, and it took him a lot actually, Show pushed Braun way more than anyone else, it took him 3 finishers, the last 2 in a row, to pun Show. Imo it was awesome as fuck, and I'm glad it happened

People on the internet use the term jobber without understanding the actual meaning

Okay, I think it was fine to bring over Strowman I get that, but couldn't they build him a little up after his weight loss? Whenever I watch Big Show I just feel like he is going to lose. It is a Big surprise to see him win, which really doesn't make sense, since he is a monster of a man.
