Could the big bang be a white hole? And doesn't it make sense the wormhole kind of meaning you "wait" in the black hole until the end of the universe and the beginning of a new one as it will look like time slows down for someone approaching a black hole for an outside observer but not for the person entering.

I don't think we know how the end of the universe even from outside of the black hole would look like. If I remember correctly at some point even black holes may evaporate due to Hawking radiation.

As for the big bang being a white whole, there are a lot of problems. Like it would mean the universe started at one point in space and that's the opposite of what we see that the universe started everywhere.
