Big Show On Why He Hasn’t Been On TV, Kane’s Gloves Smelling Like Rancid Meat And More

Big Show recently spoke to Games Radar to promote WWE 2K17 and more. You can check out the full interview here along with some highlights below.

Being a gamer: “I do a lot of gaming. The graphics in WWE 2K17 are ridiculous, I’m excited about that. And I play a lot of Destiny. I’m a huge fan. I’ve got all the weapons, seriously. Everything. Gjallarhorns, the Trials of Osiris weapons, everything. And Xavier Woods has smartened me up on these leagues where gamers are playing Street Fighter for a million dollars. They’re selling out arenas watching these kids play. They’ve turned into superheroes via their gameplay.”

Why he hasn’t been on TV: “They don’t need me right now. They’re building Baron Corbin, Big Cass, Braun Strowman. Hopefully they’ll give Erick Rowan a chance because I’m a big fan of his. I’ve done everything I can do, and I have a big WrestleMania spot with Shaq coming up, so I’m sure in January we’ll kick that off and I’ll be back on TV more. For now they’re using me like they should: as an attraction.”

Kane’s ring gear: “Kane’s gloves get pretty rank. He grabs you for a chokeslam and you just want to faint. It smells like rancid friggin’ yak meat. It’s the sweat, it builds up real quick. Kneepads, masks – they suggest you throw them in the freezer for a month [every so often], to kill all the bacteria.”
