AEW star says 'I've got enough' in regards to in-ring future

Since signing with All Elite Wrestling in 2021, Paul Wight has seen limited appearances inside the squared circle with the majority of his work in the company being behind the commentary desk and behind the scenes.
The former Big Show in WWE last wrestled in March 2022, but he then underwent hip replacement surgery in August 2022.

Speaking with Jamie O’Hara and Dean Saunders on talkSPORT Breakfast, Wight was asked if he still has “it.” He answered:
“Have I still got it? I wouldn’t say I’ve still got it. I’ve got enough. At this stage of the game for me, where I’m at in my career, I’m not trying to win championships or carry companies.”
“I did over 20 years at five days a week all over the world. I think now, if I do one or two days a week, it’s just about enough for me.”

Explaining that the only difference in his approach to wrestling now is that he’s more careful, Wight said:
“The only difference is now, I’m a little bit more judicious in my choices. I’m pretty sure you won’t see my big ass going to the top rope anymore because I have learned through my years that I have no business being up there.”
“So I keep my feet on the ground. Now I’m my 20s, you couldn’t tell me that. But now I’m like, ‘Yeah, keep your big ass on the mat and entertain the fans and have fun.’”

“That’s what it is at this stage of the game for me is having fun, trying to pass some of that knowledge down to some of the younger generations and inspiring confidence and passion in them.”
“That’s one thing you want to do. A lot of people say they love the business, but if you truly move anything, you give back, and you want the business to be better. Better shape, better trained talent, better thinking talent, than when you came in.”
