Big Show returned to SmackDown 1000 this Tuesday and aligned himself with Cesaro and Sheamus, congratulating The Bar after they captured the SmackDown Tag Team Championships over The New Day.
With Big Show now aligned with the new champions, there are rumors going around that the stable will be called "Showbar," according to Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com. This hasn't been confirmed, and it's only talk for the time being.
In past years, WWE has cleverly used "Big Show" and merged it with the name of his tag team partner. He and Chris Jericho were once referred to as "Jeri-Show," and his partnership with The Miz was called "ShowMiz."
It was Big Show's first television appearance since the Sept. 4 2017 episode of Raw, where he lost to Braun Strowman in a Steel Cage match. The World's Largest Athlete needed time off to undergo hip surgery, which kept him out of action for over a year.

There were complications in Big Show's hip surgery, as an infection forced him to sit out the Greatest Royal Rumble pay-per-view in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. But the 46-year-old - who teased retirement last year- appears to be healthy and good to go again for the long run, so it doesn't seem like his career is going to end any time soon.
Cesaro and Sheamus had been off of SmackDown Live television for a couple of months and stayed out of the tag team main event picture. They lost a title match to The New Day at the Super Show-Down event two weeks ago, but captured the SmackDown Tag Team Championships for the first time since moving via the Superstar Shake-Up.
How WWE goes about booking Big Show and The Bar will be interesting to see. He could simply act as an enforcer or work with them in six-man tag team matches, similar to The New Day.
Sheamus and Cesaro often say "We don't just raise the bar, we are the bar." With a 7-foot giant now joining their tag team, the bar has been set a lot higher - literally and figuratively.
