Big Show Comments on Criticisms Towards WWE’s Booking of the WWE Championship for Crown Jewel

TMZ Sports held a recent interview with Big Show and one of the topics discussed included Big Show’s thoughts on fans criticisms towards WWE’s booking for the WWE Championship match at next week’s Crown Jewel event.

“You’re never gonna make everyone happy. Some people say, ‘you’re rushing too much’ or ‘you’re taking too long.’ Everyone is gonna have an opinion. My advice is to sit back, watch the show, and enjoy it. Quit trying to direct it.

For Cain, he’s got to feel his way around. My first match was against Hulk Hogan for the World Championship, so I can’t really throw that ‘rushing’ rock in a glass house, you know what I mean? … If opportunity knocks, take it. You can’t get mad at anyone who gets an opportunity and they take it.”

Sami Zayn announced that he has partnered with Pro Wrestling Tees on the creation of a limited edition Sami vs. El Generico T-shirt, which will go on sale starting this Friday and all proceeds will go towards the Sami for Syria charity.

Due to the Saudi government banning him from appearing at any of their sponsored WWE events, Zayn has been using the free time to hold a new fundraiser for his charity whenever WWE holds an event in the country.
