Hmm, tricky. It has to start with Big Show being re-modeled slightly. Is he going to be the big boss to dethrone or a bad-ass that fans are meant to be behind? I'm going to go with the latter, and suggest Show is sick of being treated as a stooge by The Authority. He gets sick of Seth Rollins and Triple H treating him like a lackey, and he wants what was promised to him by Stephanie McMahon for turning coat at Survivor Series '14 -- to go into the Hall of Fame right now.
Show becomes directly responsible for setting up Rock vs. Triple H with the stipulation being that if Rock wins, Ronda Rousey gets Stephanie McMahon for five minutes. Maybe Triple H forces Rock to earn the title shot, or makes Rock choose a representative to face Triple H's rep to decide whether the match is going to take place. Or maybe he knocks out a reluctant Triple H during a contract signing that Triple H is holding out on, and grabs Triple H's hand and writes "HHH". Something like that. Rock officially endorses Big Show as the People's Giant, and gives him pep-talks about how he could be so much more than he is. Show goes on to win the 2016 Royal Rumble in dominant fashion somehow.
I don't know who your champion is going to be. It could be Seth Rollins. The idea of the wormy champion having to face, literally, the biggest threat to his title he ever could has some appeal. "How is Seth going to get out of this one?" Maybe Big Show even agrees to put his career on the line. The other option is for his opponent to be Brock Lesnar. We've seen that match both before Brock Lesnar left the WWE and after, but that could add history. Big Show was the man who ended Brock's first WWE Title reign. Show would have to sell confidence heading into the match, which he can surely do. Maybe he even plants seeds of doubt into Lesnar's mind about Heyman's loyalty -- wearing Paul Heyman Guy t-shirts and all that. You could also do vignettes that show him training with an MMA guy or something -- even have that guy appear in Show's corner.
Anyway, that's the best I've got. Either Show vs. Rollins or Show vs. Lesnar for the title.
