Sports Illustrated recently chatted with WWE Superstar Big Show. During the interview, he spoke on who he thinks are the best wrestlers in the business. Big Show named both Seth Rollins and Randy Orton as his picks.

Big Show stated, “Seth Rollins and Randy Orton are the two best in the business. Seth Rollins can do it all. He’s incredibly talented, one of the best I’ve seen in a long time. Randy Orton makes everything he does in the ring look easy. He’s got such a fluidity to his movements.”

Big Show elaborated on why he thinks they are so good, “Randy always gets mad when I say this, but he makes it look easy and pretty. And Seth can literally do it all at a top level. Not do it all at a medium level, Seth can do it all at a top level.”

Hmm I don't think Seth and Orton have a lot of crossover marks so this thread should be fun

I do agree with his reasoning for Orton especially. Those are things I've all thought myself about the guy at times, and they're 100% true. He has weaker reasoning for Seth, but I wouldn't rank Seth in the top all-time either...maybe top 50 if I'm being generous.

JBL used to say the same thing about Orton. That’s when I really started paying attention to his fluidity. Been saying it for years, when he wants to be on, he’s the best. But even at 50%, he’s top 10 currently.

I think he's saying they're two of the best in the business today, not all time. Especially not Seth since he hasn't been around anywhere near long enough yet to say one of the best of all time yet. Wouldn't be surprised if he gets there in the future, though, kind of like Randy is now after being here since 2002.

I'm not as high on Randy as a wrestler as most people. I like him much better as a character. I think he's one of the best heels of all time. I don't think I've ever seen someone that's so good at playing an asshole as he is. As far as his wrestling goes I think he's one of those guys that always puts on good but not great matches. Of course he's had great matches but not consistently.

There is no doubt in that both Randy and Rollins are great in ring performers and future Hall of Famers.

What would Pig Slow know about being the best? He's a 7 foot 500 pound man who never drew a dime in a carny industry, nor could he make it in Hollywood. Him calling Seth the best at anything explains why his own career was a forgettable flop.

So you don't plan on watching The Big Show Show when it premieres on Netflix?

If Big Show never drew a dime in this carney business....nobody has since 1999.

What a stupid ass statement.

Him and Mayweather drew the largest buys before Rock/Cena 1......uh oh....midget Mayweather drew money....
