Floyd Mayweather Punches Big Show in WWE

At tonight's WWE No Way Out pay per view in Las Vegas, the Big Show returned. He attacked Rey Mysterio and then taunted Floyd Mayweather, who was sitting ringside.

Dave Meltzer described it as..."He dared Mayweather to come in as he went to choke slam [Mysterio]. Mayweather came in. Show shoved him. Lots of pull-aparts. Mayweather punched Show twice, busted his nose and his mouth and then Mayweather and his posse ran off."

I'm not watching so I haven't seen it. But it sounds cool.

Re: Floyd Mayweather Punches Big Show in WWE

As it turns out, Floyd Mayweather actually broke The Big Show's nose. Big Show was busted open and chased Mayweather to the back.

Sounds like the start of a terrific angle heading into Wrestlemania. The question is, what kind of participation will Mayweather have at the big show.

Story from WWE.com
WWE: TV Shows > No Way Out > Exclusives > Showtime in Vegas



Quote:
Showtime in Vegas
By Lennie DiFino


LAS VEGAS - For the first time in more than a year, Big Show returned to WWE in the best shape of his career at No Way Out. The giant’s appearance after Edge retained his World Heavyweight Championship against Rey Mysterio has shocked the sports-entertainment world – and his showdown with WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather sent riptides through the globe.

Almost nine years to the day after his initial WWE debut at St. Valentine’s Day Massacre in 1999, Big Show returned to deliver a message to our fans and to the Superstars of WWE: “I have been a champion before, and it’s only a matter of time before I am a champion again.” Now that Big Show – 108 pounds leaner – has returned and served notice that he is focused and in the best shape of his life, will any member of the respective rosters be safe?

One person who wasn’t exactly safe on Sunday night was Mysterio. Big Show bullied the injured Mysterio as he left the ringside area, and then goaded Floyd Mayweather – a close friend of Rey Mysterio’s – into an altercation. Earlier in the night, Mayweather and the masked Superstar had a conversation in the locker room area, and the champion boxer wished his friend good luck in trying to regain the gold from Edge.

Considered by many to be the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world today, Mayweather sat at ringside enjoying No Way Out and Rey’s bid for the title before Big Show began taunting him. The boxing champion learned quickly that trying to inflict pain upon the former WWE, WCW and ECW Champion is not an easy task. Big Show may have been bloodied by the left hook of Mayweather, but the incensed giant gave chase as Mayweather quickly retreated with his entourage in tow.

After the hit and run encounter, Big Show was calmed down by Shane McMahon, who headed off the charging giant and made sure the altercation did not escalate further. Shane and Show could be seen having a heated conversation up the ramp, with Big Show telling McMahon that he wanted Mayweather.

What will Show’s return mean to Raw, SmackDown and ECW, and which championship might Big Show eye now that he has returned and vowed to regain gold? Is this the end for Show and Mayweather or will the bloodied, angry giant seek revenge on “Pretty Boy?”

Re: Floyd Mayweather Punches Big Show in WWE

On RAW tonight, Big Show issued an "apology" for his actions. After Mayweather came out and explained himself, he was about leave. Big Show then had enough and said he could break him in half at any point. Big Show offered a challenge to Mayweather...and he accepted.

They're setting something up between them, probably for Wrestlemania. Vince likes to get lots of starpower for his biggest PPV of the year.
