heel=bad guy face=good guy
I've been trying to figure this out. At No Way Out, he was a heel after attacking Rey Mysterio, then again on the following Smackdown. Then at the weigh-in on Raw, he behaved more like a face. Last Friday, on Smackdown, he beat Jimmy Wang Yang and Shannon Moore in a handicap match. (Both of them are faces.) Now just last night, Big Show wrestled Chris Jericho for the IC Championship. Chris Jericho got himself disqualified on purpose when he hit the Big Show with the IC belt. (A total heel move.) Do you think they're planning on turning Jericho heel or is it a matter of them being indecisive of what to do with Big Show? Floyd Mayweather isn't going to receive cheers over the Big Show. Is anyone else a bit confused?

The original idea from the WWE creative team was to have Mayweather as the face and Big Show as the heel, and that was shown at No Way Out when Floyd was shown with buddy Rey Mysterio(face), then Mysterio got attacked, Show was booed... and cheered a little. Fast forward to the weigh-in, and Mayweather is portrayed and acts like a heel, while Show is cheered madly by the crowd.
I think this is a blatant case of the fans deciding who is the face/heel, much like the Hogan/Rock match from Wrestlemania 18, and the Goldberg/Lesnar feud from way back.
Until Wrestlemania, I think Show will be presented as a tweener, ie neither a face or a heel, he'll wrestle any wrestler, because until then he'll mostly be cheered by the crowd, no matter what he does. We'll know for sure what they have planned for Big Show after his program with Mayweather is done.
All I can say though is don't be surprised if Mayweather comes out the winner of their encounter at Wrestlemania, because that is probably the outcome WWE promessed him if he was to work the show.

I dont think he is a heel, I think it was to make Mayweather scared. Anyway I believe it will be a face run for him in the future anyway.

Personally I think he should be a face. Why isn't the WWE wanting to make him a face in the 1st place? People are going to cheer him regardless. If they are trying to make Mayweather the face, then I want to know what the creative team is smoking but that's impossible. Big Show should be a face and go from there. If I had to guess now, he's a tweener.
