Paul Wight is excited and nervous to step back into the squared circle.
Ahead of the Like A Dragon Gaiden Street Fight where he will join forces with Chris Jericho, Kenny Omega and Kota Ibushi to take on The Don Callis Family, the pro wrestling legend formerly known as Big Show shared his thoughts about getting back in the ring.
“I am excited,” Wight told TMZ Sports. “To be honest with you, Iโm nervous. I think thatโs part of the draw or the magic of doing what we do is that anticipation, that adrenaline rush of performing in front of a crowd and wanting to put on a good show, an exciting show, and thatโs a hard fix to get anywhere else.”
Wight continued, “You have to adjust your expectations on what youโre doing as things mature. Because when youโre younger, itโs kind of about you. Theyโre building you. Well, Iโm built. So now itโs my chance to give back to other talent and help younger talent establish themselves and hopefully become household names at some point.”
