Miro [Rusev] spoke about his first match with Big Show on his channel, ToBeMiro TV. He explained how he got to work with Big Show in the early phase of his career. Being a young talent, Miro was still new to in-ring matches at the time; hence, a match with the giant was an exciting opportunity for him.

“I get the opportunity to work with a Big Show. Trust me when I tell you man, if you’re in the ring with a Big Show, a giant, there’s only one way it’s gonna go and that’s his way.

“His way was before the match, he came, he saw me, he said, ‘I’m gonna see you in the ring later on’, and that was it. I think I told that story before… that was not my first enlisted but that was my first match with the Big Show and all he said was I’ll see you later in the ring. I can’t tell you how terrifying that is.”
