Saraya's brother opens up about his match against Paul Wight (fka The Big Show) in WWE

Paul Wight fka, Big Show, is a great wrestler who proved from time to time that size doesn't matter. Big Show wrestled in WWE for nearly two decades. In 2021, Wight made his AEW debut as a commentator at AEW Dark: Elevation.

In this two-decade-long journey, Big Show did many shows; therefore, many co-workers have many stories to tell about this gentle giant. One such interesting story was told by Saraya's brother, Zak Zodiac.

In a recent interview with the Irish Wrestling podcast, Zak Zodiac told a story about the Big Show from a WWE event in Liverpool in the year 2011.

"my agent came to me and said they wanna do a 3 on 1 with The Big Show which is gonna be featured on TV and you should do that. get on TV, I don’t care if its a squash match, this is where we get you seen," Zak said.

He said that Arn Anderson produced the match.

"So we’re putting the match together and Arn Anderson says to Big Show, this kids strikes are phenomenal, we wanna make it look like they’ve got a chance so let this kid kick you in the head. Show said to me this is a one time, make sure you kick me, and I bloody well did. I remember his ear popping out, and I know I potatoed him because the first chop he gave me afterwards, he wanted to rip my heart out.” [H/T - PWMania]

The latter also said that Paul Wight has always been nice to him after that.

Paul Wight discusses how being a heel is easy

During his time in WWE, Paul Wight worked as a heel for most of his career.

In an interview with Fightful, Paul explained how it was easier to be a heel than a babyface in wrestling.

"I think it was easier to be a heel. Because it’s easier to tell that story from a psychological standpoint. People understand presence and size and all that. I think babyface was a little harder sometimes because if you’re selling and your opponent’s not aggressive enough, they kind go, ‘Get up,’ you know what I mean? ‘No, I’m trying to sell. He’s just really doesn’t know what to do yet.’ But as a heel, I think it was easier because I had more control over the match on how things went, and the heel is very important in a match, especially in a giant match." .

Paul Wight has wrestled for over three decades and has become a household name due to his massive size.
