WWE legend Paul Donald Wight II (aka Big Show) recently chatted with Chris Van Vliet from WSVN-TV on a wide range of topics — from a workout regimen that has him down to a slim-and-trim 396 pounds to his inability to pick his nose due to his oversized fingers.
Van Vliet’s hand looked like a baby’s pressed against the Big Show’s beefy paw.
Aside from flashing his domineering digits, Big Show gave props to a number of his fellow wrestlers, including the Undertaker, John Cena and old-school standout Arn Anderson.
HELL IN A CELL
Big Show cited two Undertaker matches as his favorite WrestleMania moments of all time. Specifically, Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels from WrestleMania 25 and the infamous Hell in a Cell match from WrestleMania 28 that pitted Undertaker vs Triple H with Michaels officiating.
WWE STRONGMAN
Pushed to name the strongest opponent he has faced in the squared circle, Big Show cited Brock Lesnar’s explosive athleticism, before giving the nod to half-human, half-tank John Cena.
“When Cena picks you up, it's like you're standing on concrete. I've never seen a guy so composed, so strong. When you're on his shoulders, you aren't going anywhere. He is literally like a machine.”
HOMAGE TO ARN ANDERSON
The Big Show is unequivocal in his praise of one wrestler in particular — Arn Anderson — whom he credits for stoking his interest in the sport. In 2012, Anderson was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as a founding member of the Four Horsemen (along with Ole Anderson, Ric Flair and Tully Blanchard).
NEXT BIG SHOW
As far as the Big Show, himself, the seven-footer is prepping for a clash of titans with fellow big man Shaquille O’Neal. O’Neal better come prepared, because Big Show’s kung fu is getting stronger by the day…
