Chris Jericho and Big Show teamed up in 2009 and were a heel tag team. The two were in various feuds, including throwing out challenges for the World Heavyweight Championship, until 2010. They reunited in 2012 and were together until 2016. The duo had two tag team championship reigns in WWE.

Did the ring really fall during 'that' Brock Lesnar-Big Show match?

One of the most memorable and iconic moments of modern wrestling is from the Big Show vs. Brock Lesnar match in 2003, on Smackdown – when the ring broke with both the superstars still battling it out in it. To their credit, WWE haven't used that spot a lot.

Big Show, on Chris Jericho's podcast Talk is Jericho, once admitted that it was a pre-planned stunt.

"Of course, now I’ve got my fat a** up in the air, 500 pounds on a not very stable surface… So then the ring broke. I just remember when it happened because… you don’t know how the stunt is going to look. But man, it was so perfectly timed the way we did it and Ellis [Edwards] did a great job of setting up. That thing collapsed and everybody... they bought it so long."

While the secret has been out for a while now, every wrestling fan who has seen that spot as it unfolded on the screen will always remember the experience.
