Big Show: ‘Retirement Is Not On My Mind Right Now, But It’s Always There’
Big Show knows he can’t wrestle forever, but that doesn’t mean that he’s ready to hang it up right now.
Big Show was recently on Monday Night Raw and wrestled Randy Orton in an Unsanctioned Fight which resulted in Randy Orton punting him in the head, effectively writing him off of television for the foreseeable future.
Speaking with TV Guide, Big Show opened up about seeing the end of the road coming soon for his career.
“Right now, it’s not on my mind, but it’s always there. Let’s face it, I’ve been doing this for 25 years. I’m not a spring chicken anymore. I have to see where our business evolves and see where I can fit in and still be an asset,” said Show. “Vince [McMahon] and I have talked extensively many times together about my role and what he wants from me and what I want to give to the company. And I always want to contribute to WWE and the younger talent. I’m still excited for more shows and more opportunities and more angles. If it gets to a point where it’s time to say goodbye, then I will step back and work more behind the scenes. Hopefully, they’ll give me a job backstage doing something. I mean, I might be the person that you pass your Slammy to after you’ve won. I might be qualified to do that.”
Big Show is currently the star of his own sitcom on Netflix and is slated to be a part of a huge comedy crossover later this summer. Learn more at this link.
