A few years ago Paul Wight made the jump to AEW to work as a commentator and even though he hasn’t been wrestling nearly as often as he used to he’s been lucky to have a long career inside the squared circle.
The former WWE Champion has faced off against some of the biggest names in the business and during a recent appearance on the the Deuce and Mo podcast he talked a little bit about his strongest opponents.
“Mark Henry used to treat me like I was a stuffed animal toy. John Cena was like climbing on a piece of workout equipment in a gym because he was just so stable. And Brock Lesnar was so explosively powerful, Brock grabs you so fast you don’t have time to realize what was happening to you until after it was already over.”
Paul Wight also went on to praise Kane for his strength when he added, “Kane is another one that gets into that mutant strength range.”
It’s been a while since Wight has stepped into the ring as he underwent a knee replacement, but he has stated that he’s hopeful he’ll be back in action sooner than later. Who do you want to see him face in AEW? Sound off in the comments below.
