AEW News Roundup - Matt Hardy wants a top WWE star to jump ship, Tony Khan not a fan of wrestling veteran's gimmick, Paul Wight wants a big match (24th June 2021)

#4 Paul Wight wants AEW to book him against Shaquille O'Neal

Paul Wight, aka The Big Show, has had a relatively low-key start to his AEW run as the legend has not stepped into the ring just yet.

Wight has been improving tremendously as a commentator and analyst on AEW Dark: Elevation. The popular giant does eventually plan on wrestling again, and he also has a big match in mind.

During a recent interview with the Miami Herald, Paul Wight revealed his desire to complete his dream showdown against Shaquille O'Neal. The clash between the giants has been teased on a few occasions in the WWE, and Wight wants it to come to fruition before fans lose interest in the massive dynamic.

"I hope so at some point. It's been the biggest tease ever between Shaq vs. me for how many years. At some point, you either never do it because you can't live up to the tease, or we need to hurry up and do it before it gets to be yesterday's news," said Paul Wight. (H/T - Fightful)

Shaq and Wight first faced off against each other on a RAW episode in 2009. The four-time NBA champion was a special guest enforcer in a tag team match that featured The Big Show. Wight and Shaq also shared a memorable moment at the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania 32.
