I’m dying to hear the Shawn Michaels cover of his theme now 😂
he walked in with a guitar and started jamming with Show
@adventurousstoner2629 It was a Gibson Les Paul with dual humbucker pickups. It was then and there he made big show his childs godfather.

Shawn Michaels literally sang his theme song
Watch kurt singing shawn's theme insted
Big Show: I hate it
Literally everyone: how dare you Sir!
Not everyone
Not to mention for a while it was used in memes inside the wrestling community. It showed up in a few other nonwrestling meme stuff as a jumpscare type meme but didn't last long
It's very understandable why he thinks so
Everyone else: Big Show is lame
Just like Orton and Burn In My Light.
That's actually one of my favs lol
I know I liked his theme song.
Same after Randy Orton 😤
I love his theme song
why 3000likes for that?
Wow people really liked this mundane comment.
“Once Shawn Michael’s enters the dressing room, It’s iconic. You’re stuck with it.” I instantly imagined Shawn mockingly singing it out loud 😂🤣
Same😂
U forgot the “and sings your song” part of it. Be kind of weird if he said it became iconic just cause Shawn walked into the dressing room (without singing it).
I imagine him walking in the locker room singing and spinning like in his entrance
It’s like John Cena (and Chris Jericho) singing Cody Rhodes’s song.
You know Shawn for a fact loved to be slightly annoying with it and exaggerated the hell out of the "WELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL" to be stupidly long, in his sarcastic ass voice.
That theme song is legendary, we stayed singing it in elementary school
And middle school 😂
I never liked it. He’s right, a bluesy theme would have been perfect but what he ended up with was kinda cringe. You guys like it due to nostalgia but it’s an objectively bad theme
@@chiarosuburekeni9325 Thats just your opinion man. And you're one of the few
@@chiarosuburekeni9325like his 2000s theme? That seemed bluesy
@@chiarosuburekeni9325you’re correct that the Ruthless Aggression Era version was objectively preferable.
Man, that theme song meant pain was coming through that curtain
Those chops were BRUTAL!!!
Nope, that's Mrak Henry's theme music.
As long as it wasn’t a PPV.
Mark Henry's is better
I mean, it’s a bluesy-rockabillyish theme song. He got what he asked for!! Literally!
The second version, yes. The original version not so much
The OG version was straight rock music
The OG version was much better
That theme IS iconic. I loved when he would "shhhh" the crowd and deliver those DEVESTATING chops!!
Damn that’s sad to hear tbh cause i love it😂
Same. 2008/2009 was my favorite years.

2001 I heard it. Hated it then, still hate it now 👎
Same its iconic
@@younglove3362 Nobody cares?
That song is a part of my childhood and teenage. Everyone loved Cena Rock Steve Austin etc but guys like Big Show Kane Mark Henry also helped to enrich the experience. They were not favs but definitely unmissable part of WWE.
Paul Wright is probably one of the nicest guys in the business. He always seems to be happy to talk with everyone. I love that guy!
I remember the tough enough guys who tried to sandbag B show and not selling when he slammed them🤣 he still picked those grown men up like kids gave the sandbaggers and elbow or a knee
I prefer his evil counterpart Paul Wight
i worked in a deli years ago in florida and he came in asked if we had a sausage and pepper dish that we served at certain times of the week. that day it wasnt ready but i was like "im so sorry! it takes 45 minutes but i can get it started right away for you sir! is there anything we can do for you for the inconvience!?" but he couldnt have been nicer and was like "nah its cool bro. i know you guys got a schedule with that. ill just come back on the day you serve it." just so sweet and so chill. dude is just an amazing guy
That original theme was so much better than the one he would later use. It was powerful and loud, it felt massive, like him.
AGREE
Shit i liked his theme. My all time favorite though was the Y2J break down the walls theme. That beat was dope.
Specifically his ‘03 version for me
@@Dale_Doback Exactly
1st version of jeri show theme was the best
"weelllllll it's the big big big big big big"
@@curryman3628
I was just about to say this. Jerishow had the sickest mashup theme. Also one of a few tag teams that split up amicably in WWE.
🔥
I had an assistant principal who looks exactly like Show. We would sing it every time we saw him 😂😂
Did he laugh😂
@@pskillzfulthat or he probably would WMD or chokeslam them
I hear him, and it's obviously his opinion so he knows best, but his Big Show theme is exactly what he described. It's heavy blues slow strutting music.
Maybe if he shared an example/song influence that would help? But that theme is literally EXACTLY what he asked for lol.
I think he's talking about his first version of the music that was sung by Michael Hayes. You know, the one that start with Hayes loudly shouting "WOEELLL EELLL, WELL IT'S THE BIG SHOW!" and the drum tempo was noticeably very fast. I can see why Show hate that version of the theme.
It's not "heavy blues" it's "hard rock" the version he got
Well he did with Muddy Waters. The blues in Big Show’s theme is more of a commercial musical walk in blues as opposed to with Chicago style blues. Which is more musical but still slow.
@@grey_f98 No. Stop being pedantic.
I think this is the classical scenario where he had something in mind but has no clue how to describe it, so the rest of us just give him what he asked for which is not what he wanted to say.
Big Show music starts
12 year old me: Wellllll....well it's the BIG SLOWW!
Lmfaooo
I was about to say the same thing. You beat me by 10 months dude. Ha ha.
That's what we did too
ITS A BIG, BIG SHOW!!
WELLLLLL...IT'S THE BIG SLOW! xD
- The Rock
Muddy Waters was from the town next to mine. Having one of his songs as the Shows entrance would have made me love him that much more.
WWE would never be willing to pay the royalties required to do that.
Muddy Waters was the truth!! 💯
His, the glass breaking, and "you think you know me" will always be the goats.
He looks happy and I love that he is.
Big boy looks so calm and smart.
My mom would watch with my brother and I and when show would walk out she’d be the first one to hit the “weeellllllllllllll”
That’s cool af. I wish my mom watched wrestling with me
It turn out to be one of the best theme song in the wwe history.
Lol this interview is awesome 👌
Big Show seems like a big teddy bear in real life. What a nice guy
Welllll get ready for somethin , that you’ll never knoooowwwww, you won’t see it comin, but I promise you’ll knoowww, the BIG SHOOOWWWWW !!!
My favorite part! I always sing it 😂🤣
I always quote this bit. It’s catchy but come on, will I never knowwww, or do you promise I’ll knoowwww? Come on, Show, you can’t have it both ways.
One of my very favorite wrestlers.
He’s a good lad the big show
Bro, 'Crank it up' is sooo f**king awesome!!
i used his theme to wake up in the morning, loud but chill
Lmfao
That would make me hate it in 3 days flat lol
@@danielocean3699 try edge's one for 5 yrs
This is one of my favorites CVV interviews 😊
Mark Henry and Big Show would make me feel so safe
Mark Henry made you feel safe? The man was a menace to the entire locker room
@@koolaidjammer7108 maybe when he was younger sure
@@koolaidjammer7108 He never was, that was Triple h and Shawn. Mark Henry was busy trying protect Rock from backstage power going after him during that time, at the same time Mark Henry was respected as time gone forward.
Same. But for me it’d be Big Show and Undertaker. 😊
They’re 2 giant teddy bears
One of my favorite themes. I remember in 7th grade losing my mind watching the 2001 Royal Rumble when he made a surprise return. When that music hit and he cleared the ring, such a great memory
Big show's 1999 theme is THE BEST version
Big show had one of the best songs ..
Slow, strong , and catchy
When I was a kid my friends and I would sing "Weeellll it's the biiig slooooow"
Show is so wholesome, it’s awesome!
He actually had one of the best theme sings of all time
its litterally diesels old theme lol
Big shoe I loved ur old theme song sooo muck I swear I listened to it everyday I swear
Daamn there goes another big show heel turn. Just watched a clip of him saying he liked his theme song lol. Same interviewer too 😂
You gotta love Big Show, he's a great performer, and can do anything he's asked of
Lol, I think it fits him perfectly!!!
The 2003 version of the theme song is my personal fave.
Don't forget about the Mack 10 version of his song.
As a little Kid, I used to think it said "Wheeeeeeeeeere is the big shooow?"
We have a classmate during high school who looks like him and everytime he enters the room, "Weeeeelll?..."
When you heard that theme, it’s like the Final Boss is coming for ya booty.
My friends and I always randomly spout off "weee-eeell" while doing even the most mundane tasks. Never fails to get a laugh. We love his theme song. haha
I like Show's song back in the day lt was cool seeing him come out to it.
ill admit, the "rest" of the song isnt exactly that great, but every time i heard that first bit, "weEEELLLllll....." i definitely got a bit more excited to see what Show was about to do to the poor schmucks in the ring lol
That's most old WWE music, great at the start then meh
I love this legend future hof thankyou for all the memories
Best theme song ever lol. Big Show is like a truck so it fits him
Without a doubt one of my favourites
It needs to be a rocket league goal song
Cringe
@@ule2387 nah. RL too nice.
@XxneveragainxX no sir. Great, but not best
that song is great love his theme
I get what he’s saying. They could’ve just given him Diesel’s theme without the truck lol
That theme is as iconic as rest in peace
I guess it all makes sense now. Big Show turned Face and Heel so much because he was conflicted with how much he hated his theme song and with how much the fans enjoyed it. Lol.
Legend ! I miss the old school WWE wrestlers and times.
Jim Johnston is a Theme Music legend 🤷🏾♂️
No doubt!
I haven’t watched pro wrestling in like 15 years, but the most iconic theme music will forever be Stone Cold’s song. Any time the glass shattered crowds would go absolutely ballistic.
He is handsome
No offense, but i think this show is a bit too big fy😅
Such a genuine person
But the thing is, its a Rip-off of Kevin Nash's "Diesel Blues" theme from 1995!!!(play them back to back)
Well every blues song sounds alike
I agree with ramsi, they all sound basically the same.
Same key and roughly the same tempo
Same baseline and drum pattern for sure, but a lot of WWE themes were recycled old ones that were slightly modified
@The Nature Boy Bungus "there's that extra *Ting* ...its not the same"
I listen to that song still.
Well, if HBK endorses it, you have to keep it, lol. It's interesting how he mentioned HBK, consider ing Shawn wasn't too sold on the HBK gimmick initially either.
I love how down to earth the big show is. He’s a legend
Big Show: *sings his theme song*
Also Big Show: you know how bad that is??
😂
Im so glad big show been healthy living life dude is an icon
As soon as you hear "Weeeeeeell" you already know who it is 😐
being the big guy in my circle, they always sing or play big show's entrance whenever i enter the room. and i fcking love it
I had Shawn Michaels theme as a ringtone. I had to remove it after the phone rang too much in front of my family.
🤣😂🤦♂️
Ill never forget Paul coming up through that ring. As a kid, this felt like a strong turn for me in the MNW. The Giant was on WWF now. The debut isnt highlighted enough in the culture.
Lyrics make no sense either.
"Well, get ready for something
That you'll NEVER KNOW
You won't see it coming
But I promise YOU'LL KNOW"
Will I know or not? Make up your mind!
Wrestling With Wregret
I actually sing that line randomly. It’s just stuck in my head forever. The Jerishow mashup was amazing and probably the best entrance theme of all time. I was so heartbroken when they split up just because that was the end of that theme.
The version he used from the early to mid 2000's was the best version IMO. The one he started using from 05/06 until the end of his WWE career wasn't as good.
That's actually one of my favorites themes because of the blues like sound
When I was child, I remember saying it on daily basis, because it was so iconic
I still sing it to this day at 29 😂 it’s a great entrance song especially old SmackDown with the big fist was iconic
Big show is handsome AF ❤ BIG FAN since childhood
I love the way he talks and handles his communication
BIG SHAW IS A GOOD WRESTLER, HIS MANNERS IS VERY POLITE ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😢 I RESPECT HIM
I love that song!!! WeEL ITS THE BIG SHOW!! ITS THE BIG BAD SHOW TONIGHT YALL..
But, whenever you hear it, it strikes fear into a person heart.
Proof that wrestlers don’t always know what’s best for them. Top 5 themes ever
When I was a kid I thought the wrestlers all sang their own theme song, you can’t tell me you can’t see big show in the studio talking bout “wellll it’s thee biggg showw”
I love his theme song. One of the reasons I became a fan of big show
“It’s the big FAT show tonight yall”😂😂
We love it too it's like a blues truck driver /bar fight /chopping trees for the winter/ drinking with friends type of music
Should've asked him about his WCW theme and how he felt about that as Paul Wight, that song is incomprehensible to this day.
I loved this theme and also Aggressive rap for me the best themes of Grande Show
Bro he’s got vocals then on that welllllllll it’s the big show!!! 🔥
Bro look good and healthy 😊
One of my favorites
Big Shows theme is one of my favourites.
I hope he’s talking bout that early theme before like 08. Cause that theme song is one of the best themes ever
"what kind of music were you thinking" lmao big show def be on discord with the bois gaming
Loved the original theme entrance music.
From 99 to 2005 is my favorite
Can you imagine a big show return? That would crazy but if ever where to happen they definitely need to give him a title run
His first theme was really good! Better than the last one. Real blues
