• Tony Khan Wants To Feature WWF Legend On AEW Shows Again
Old School WWF / WCW Legend The Big Show signed with AEW last year and performs in the company under his real name: Paul Wight.
So far, Wight has competed in only 3 matches in All Elite Wrestling, with two of them being 3-on-1 Handicap Matches. He has won all of them.
His AEW debut match took place at the All Out 2021 pay-per-view, where he defeated QT Marshall.
During an interview on Robbie Fox’s “My Mom’s Basement”, AEW President Tony Khan noted that he wants to feature Paul Wight on AEW programming again, once The Giant is cleared to compete.
Below is what Khan said about Wight’s commentary work on AEW’s YouTube shows:
“Paul, seeing him up and around has been great. Paul Wight is such an awesome presence in pro wrestling and when he’s healthy, and can be on the shows again, you know, I want to feature Paul.
Unfortunately, a lot of his time in AEW has been hurt. He’s great on commentary when he’s been able to travel. I think that’s something, he has a great future quite frankly.
I think he’s worked really, really hard at it and deserves opportunities there. So I have a lot of great things to say about Paul Wight.”
