Big Show recalled that a Superstar had missed his flight to a live show and he was pitted against Lesnar as a result. The duo tore the house down and the report was immediately sent to Vince McMahon. The WWE Chairman had a discussion with Big Show as well as Lesnar, who had nothing but praise for the giant, and thus the feud came into being.
Brock Lesnar and Big Show come face to face:
Brock Lesnar and Big Show’s feud was the highlight of SmackDown in late 2002
Brock Lesnar had defeated The Rock at SummerSlam 2002 to become the youngest WWE Champion in history. He successfully defeated The Undertaker inside Hell In A Cell to retain the belt, but lost it to Big Show at Survivor Series when Paul Heyman turned on The Beast and aligned with the giant.
Lesnar went on to win the Royal Rumble match and defeated Kurt Angle in the main event of WrestleMania 19 to win the belt again. Lesnar and Big Show feuded for a while again, weeks before Lesnar turned into a full-fledged heel on the SmackDown brand.
