If I'm in a forgiving frame of mind, I'd say.....it's OK. I think the feud with Sheamus has indeed turned out better than anyone thought it might but I put that down to Sheamus mostly.
See, Big Show has never been more slow and clumsy in the ring. To his credit, he's adapted to a few more reasonable "giant" moves but his chokeslam remains among the very sloppiest I have seen and his spear looks fast but it's not. The pure fact remains is that - offense or defense - the other guy is doing 95% of the work when Big Show is in there.
I don't hate Show by any means but to me, this is too little, too late. They should have done this with him years ago and this feels to me nothing but a run of appeasement and/or Big Show's golden handshake.
