WWE Took Back All of The Big Show's Slammy Awards

Big Show has won the Slammy for Tag Team of the Year with Chris Jericho in 2009. He won one in 2011 for collapsing the ring with Mark Henry during a Superplex at WWE Vengeance. In 2012, Big Show won a Slammy for knocking out John Cena at Over the Limit and again in 2013 for knocking out Triple H. He was part of Team Cena when they won Match of the Year in 2014 for Survivor Series, his final Slammy Award. But unfortunately, he didn't get to keep any of them.

In a recent interview with TV Guide, Big Show revealed that wrestlers who win the Slammy have to immediately give them back because WWE only has so many Slammy Awards, and they need to keep reusing them. Yes, seriously.

"Truth be told, you have to give your Slammy back once you exit the stage because they only have a certain number of Slammies made," Big Show said. "But they're more than happy to order you one to put on your mantle. I'm good. I won enough. I just find it funny that there's a person waiting when you get off stage to take your Slammy from you and walk onto the other side of the stage to present it for the next award."

Wow, the Big Show just majorly exposed the business with that comment! Then again, he is a big Hollywood star now with his own Netflix show.

They should sell engraved slammys

 

[King Kai]

[jerniebert]

The Slammy gets no respect.

 

[El Guapo]

The Slammy gets no respect.

Only Slammys we respect are Owen Hart’s two Slammys

 

[Bryan Danielson]

[MushroomX]

Were they afraid that a Wrestler could jump ship to TNA/ROH with a Slammy?

Independent contractors

 

[HipHopStan]

They do the same thing at the MTV Movie Awards/Video Music Awards.

Robin Williams made light of this fact when he won. "There's a guy waiting to take this back from me that's just offstage there."

 

[TheGreatShowtime]

No wonder the company was struggling the mid-90's. Owen took two of them shyts

 

[Bryan Danielson]

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

Owen and Bret probably looked at Vince like

 

[Rell84shots]

there wouldn't be any pushback on this because no one care about a damn "slammy"

Owen was the only one to really embrace the slammy

 

[El Guapo]

Only Slammy winner that mattered

On another note, Owen and Bulldog are the most unappreciated Tag Team ever

It's the same at all award shows, the difference is those ones give you a personalized/engraved one afterwards. They don't do it ahead of time so winners don't get spoiled.
