Paul Wight se rapproche d’un retour dans le ring

Paul Wight, qui a joint récemment la AEW en tant que commentateur pour AEW Dark: Elevation, songe de plus en plus à faire un retour en tant que lutteur.

Dans une entrevue pour WrestleZone, l’ex-Big Show de la WWE affirme que son désir de revenir dans le ring a augmenté depuis qu’il travaille à cette émission diffusée sur YouTube. Il avait toutefois déjà indiqué sa volonté de lutter de nouveau lors de son arrivée en février.

Wight aime l’ambiance à la AEW, qui est plus “libre” et moins structurée qu’à la WWE.

“Increased [my desire.] I think I said it a couple days ago to Tony—I don’t know if it made it on air or not—I said ‘Tony, have you ever sat here in this chair and really got the desire to lace your boots up again and put them on and get out there and wrestle?’ And Tony goes, ‘no, absolutely not.’ For me as a competitor, I really, really dig the environment in AEW. It’s nowhere near as micromanaged as WWE is, because WWE has a very strict product on how they present their characters, how they present their talent, and the mission directive of what they’re doing, which is a very structured environment and that does work great for WWE and their product.”

Wight ajoute qu’il bénéficie de cette liberté et qu’il espère faire profter de sa vaste expérience dans le ring aux jeunes lutteurs.

Il s’imagine déjà affronter des lutteurs tels Darby Allin, Lance Archer ou Kenny Omega. Wight ressent une énergie nouvelle et est très heureux d’avoir joint la AEW.

“There’s some guys there in AEW that I’m already watching. I do it the ‘old-school’ way because I drive usually, when we do our tapings, I live in Tampa and it’s 200 miles, so I’m usually having matches in my head with talent in AEW that I want to work with potentially,” Wight explained, “whether its Darby Allin or its Lance Archer, whether it’s Kenny Omega, [these are] guys that I’ve never had a chance to work with in the ring. I’m already having matches in my head with them, [coming up with] different scenarios that compliment their style and mine. That excitement and that drive is just so invigorating, and I can’t express to anyone how incredibly thrilled I am right now to be in AEW.”
