Paul Wight, also known as The Big Show, is undoubtedly one of the most respected pro wrestlers in the business.

Wight has made a huge name for himself ever since his time at WCW and, most notably, the WWE.

While speaking with Submission Radio, the AEW Star has revealed that he had another hip transplant surgery in December, and that he also plains to wrestle in small doses to help push younger talents.

“I had another hip transplant in December. So, now I have two fake hips now, I have two titanium hips so I’m like Wolverine,” Wight revealed. “So the focus for me has just been on rehab, physical therapy, and just getting stronger. And my thing coming over [to AEW], honestly, to be sincere, is I came over here to work on my commentary skills because that’s where my future lies in wrestling, that’s where I want to contribute to the business.

But I came over to compete periodically, in small doses, like I don’t see myself running for championships, that’s not my gig.

Maybe if it works out and there’s a younger talent that I can help bring along, like a tag team championship, maybe. I’ve done my five nights a week for decades, I’ve put in my time. Now, for me, it’s about not taking anything away from the amazing AEW talent here that deserves that TV time, that deserves that opportunity to make those connections with the audience, that deserves that ability to go out and earn those pay-per-view paydays, this is their time.”

So, that’s the smart thing you do, like I’m never gonna be a guy that’s going to come in and bully my way and, ‘I need my dressing room, I need to be fighting for the title.’ That’s not my MO. I want the business to do well and I want the talent around me to do well, and I’ll be okay.” (Via Submission Radio, H/T WrestlingInc)

Paul Wight signed with All Elite Wrestling on February 2021, after 22 long years with WWE.

Since then, he has served as a performer and commentator for YouTube’s AEW Dark.

Former WWE 24/7 Champion and host of WrestleMania 36, Rob Gronkowski was recently interviewed by TMZ sports about making a potential return to the wrestling ring in the future.

Speaking about a return Gronkowski mentioned he would love to get some ring time with WWE Legend The Rock saying:

“It would definitely be a tag team match, no doubt about that,…I just love the tag team aspect of everything, you know? It’s my first time so I really wouldn’t want to be on my own doing a one-on-one match, I’d be able to get help, and then grow into that role of maybe going doing a one-on-one match after a couple of tag team matches, my tag team partner can help me out with some moves, and all that good stuff. But who would it be [against]? I’m getting put on the spot. It would be pretty cool to have The Rock come back and face The Rock or have him as my tag team partner. It’d be cool to get a People’s Elbow, but it would also be cool to have him on my squad.” (H/T fightful.com)

He further added to a potential list of matches of who he would like to and who he would not like to face saying:

“You and I maybe we can go back, make a quick appearance, be the Tag Team Champions, and we can go vs. The Rock, and then you know, maybe like, D-Generation X, we can bring them back we can tag team against them, that’d be pretty cool. Maybe Val Venis can come back, we can tag team, he was one of my favourites. I love the old school guys. I wouldn’t want to go for someone like The Big Show or The Undertaker. They’re just too massive dudes. I don’t like when I go [against] a guy who is bigger than me. I like to be the biggest guy,” (H/T fightful.com)

Rob Gronkowski first made his debut in WWE helping his friend Mojo Rawley eliminate Jinder Mahal to win the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal back in 2017 at WrestleMania 33.
