Paul Wight doesn’t believe he has “it” anymore. Despite this, the former Big Show says he has “enough” to get back into the ring.
Speaking on a recent edition of the “talkSPORT Breakfast” podcast, the AEW agent and wrestler opined on changing up his ring style, possibly getting back into the ring, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On whether he still has “it”: “Have I still got it? I wouldn’t say I’ve still got it. I’ve got enough. At this stage of the game for me, where I’m at in my career, I’m not trying to win championships or carry companies. I did over 20 years at five days a week all over the world. I think now, if I do one or two days a week, it’s just about enough for me.”
On changing up his ring style: “The only difference is now, I’m a little bit more judicious in my choices. I’m pretty sure you won’t see my big ass going to the top rope anymore because I have learned through my years that I have no business being up there. So I keep my feet on the ground. Now I’m my 20s, you couldn’t tell me that. But now I’m like, ‘Yeah, keep your big ass on the mat and entertain the fans and have fun.’
“That’s what it is at this stage of the game for me is having fun, trying to pass some of that knowledge down to some of the younger generations and inspiring confidence and passion in them. That’s one thing you want to do. A lot of people say they love the business, but if you truly move anything, you give back, and you want the business to be better. Better shape, better trained talent, better thinking talent, than when you came in.”
