22 Days Of WrestleMania (The Biggest Loser)

I've already discussed the man with the most impressive record at WrestleMania (Undertaker) as well as the "MVP" (Shawn Michaels), so now it's time to talk about the least successful performer at WrestleMania. Some would argue that Tito Santana's 1-7 record (7 straight losses) would easily win him the award. Personally, I find him to be too talented of a wrestler to be selected. Then there's Jaques Rougeau, but too many of his losses were just to insignificant to really make an impact on WrestleMania. My choice for the biggest loser is someone many would not expect to not have won a single match at any WrestleMania. I'm talking about none other than the Big Show. A former WWE World Champion along with being current WWE Tag Team Champion, Big Show is usually involved in a big story line. Despite not being especially talented, he still draws a reaction from the crowd whether he's a heel or a face. I'm going to take a look at his WrestleMania history.

WrestleMania XV - vs. Mankind
The Show's first WrestleMania ends in defeat, but when you look back at it, it makes sense in the storyline. They really didn't have much to do for him yet, as they were still developing him as a "monster".

WrestleMania 2000 - vs. The Rock vs. HHH vs. Mick Foley
The Show was sort of just thrown into this main event so they could have each McMahon represent a wrestler. To no one's surprise, he was the first to be eliminated as it eventually went down to what the main event should have been in the first place, The Rock vs. HHH.

WrestleMania X-7 - vs. Raven vs. Kane
Another multiple man match, this time for the Hardcore Championship. This was probably his best opportunity to win. Kane walked away with the title, who just so happens to be his tag team partner as we speak.

WrestleMania XIX - (With A-Train) vs. Undertaker
This year they decided to use him as an Undertaker jobber. Definitely not one of the finer moments of his career, he and A-Train were essentially beaten by just one man. I hear that's always good for the career.

WrestleMania XX - vs. John Cena
Who's jobber will he be this year? Why not John Cena? Big Show put his United States Championship up for grabs and of course lost to who most people thought at the time would be the next big thing.

WrestleMania 21 - vs. Akebono
In one of the biggest bonehead decisions ever, they decided to give Big Show a sumo match against Akebono. Who approved this garbage? Absolute horrible match that really made this show worse than it should have been. What was the point of having Big Show in this match and then lose? The world may never know.

The WWE seems to have a difficult time finding something for Big Show to do during the months of March and April. So many of his 'Mania matches seem thrown together or he's just there just to job. This year could be his first real chance of winning as he and Kane defend their championships against the team of Chris Masters and Carlito. Will he finally get the big number 1? Or will he still have the big fat goose egg? We shall find out on April 2nd.
