The Big Return? Former World Champion May Be Teasing A Return To The Ring (Or Something Else)

One more time? While wrestlers have a hit and miss record when it comes to retirement, there are some wrestlers who do not announce their retirement and just pop back into the ring every so often. It can make them hinting at getting back in the ring for a special occasion all the more fun, and now a wrestling legend is teasing getting back in the ring, or at least putting his gear on again.

AEW broadcaster Paul Wight (also known as Big Show during his time in WWE) has posted an image to Instagram showing him putting on a pair of white wrestling boots. Wight, 51 years old, thanked the maker of the boots and used the hashtag of “CaptainInsano”, his wrestling character from the film “The Waterboy”. Wight has wrestled four matches since joining AEW’s commentary team and has appeared as Insano in a music video. It is NOT guaranteed that Wight is going to be wrestling a match.

Wight has been around in AEW. Check out what he has done before:

Opinion: This could be another appearance in a vignette or in another match, either of which could be quite the moment. Wight is not someone who wrestles often and having him get in the ring can be a fun thing to see. At the very least, having him do something, even if it is not a match, is a cool moment and AEW has done well with what he is doing in his time there.
