1999 NWO-Black Smash “N” Slam Wrestlers The Giant w/Rey Mysterio

The Giant is best known for his tenure with World Championship Wrestling (WCW)

from 1995 to 1999 as Giant and his tenure with the World Wrestling Federation 

(WWF, later WWE) from 1999 to 2021 under the ring name (The) Big Show.

Wight played college basketball at Wichita State University before transferring

to other schools. Wight began his wrestling career in 1994. In 1995 The Giant

signed with WCW, where, due to his very large frame, he was known by the ring name

Giant (and was initially introduced as “the son of André”). In early 1999, he left WCW

to join the World Wrestling Federation (WWF). In 1997, Giant began a feud with

nWo member Nash, who constantly dodged Giant, including no-showing their

scheduled match at Starrcade. In 1998, at Souled Out, the two finally met in the ring,

with Nash accidentally injuring The Giant’s neck when he botched his signature

jackknife powerbomb finisher. The botch was worked into a storyline, according

to which Nash had intentionally dropped Him on his head in order to break his

neck When Nash left the nWo and formed his own stable, the nWo Wolfpac,

he rejoined the original nWo to oppose Nash and his allies. While back with the nWo,

he won two. more Tag Team Championships, once with Sting as an unwilling partner

(as the match was signed before he returned to the nWo) and once with Scott Hall.

In the interim between those two reigns, he lost his half of the titles to Sting in a singles

match where only the winner would  remain champion and could choose a new partner.
