#5 Brock Lesnar slams WWE officials for not noticing Big Show's abilities as a wrestler
Back in 2002, Brock Lesnar had become the biggest Superstar on the WWE roster, following his WWE title win over The Rock at SummerSlam. Lesnar went on to feud with The Undertaker and came out victorious in the end. WWE officials asked Lesnar who he would like to face next, and The Beast mentioned Big Show.
Big Show stated that Lesnar went as far as slamming WWE's officials for ignoring his abilities, and told them that he would like to have a program with him. Big Show credits Brock Lesnar for his career resurgence, after being on the sideline for a long time. The duo went on to compete in a WWE title match at Survivor Series 2002, which saw Paul Heyman turning on Lesnar and helping Big Show defeat him. Big Show later lost the title to Kurt Angle, who in turn lost the belt to Brock Lesnar in the main event of WrestleMania 19.
