Opening Day heavyweights George W. Bush, The Big Show share a hug, Rangers win

WWE Superstar The Big Show made it to The Show on Monday in Arlington, attending the Texas Rangers opening day win against the Seattle Mariners and finding an unlikely but equally “big” tag team partner, former President George W. Bush.

The two bear-hugged and posed for photos, which quickly began making the rounds on social media. Bush, the former owner of the Rangers, was smiling and wearing his red Texas cap, and Big Show was clad in a ginormous Rangers jersey.

“That’s the coolest (expletive) I’ve ever done,” Big Show reportedly said afterward. And that’s saying something, because on Sunday night he stepped into the ring at AT&T Stadium for Wrestlemania 32 in front of more than 100,000 screaming fans. He was competing in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal along with another giant dude, NBA Hall of Famer Shaquille O’Neal.
