Epico Colon On Paul Wight: He’s One Of The Greatest Athletes, Even At His Size

Epico Colon discusses working with Paul Wight (formerly known as The Big Show), noting that he is one of the industries greatest athletes.

Primo and Epico would spend almost a decade of their wrestling careers in the company using a couple of different gimmicks and facing off with some of the top names in the industry during that era, including The Big Show.

While speaking to Going Ringside in a new interview, Epico would speak about working with Paul Wight, noting that he is one of the industries greatest athletes.

“It’s intimidating. I used to see him on TV, now I’m standing in the ring across from him, and that guy is so freaking big, and when he lays it in, he lays it in. Oh, God, it’s marks from here to here. He’s such an incredible performer. He’s one of the greatest athletes, even at his size. He can do anything. Does he need to? No. Can he? Of course he can. But on top of that, he’s just one of our closest friends in this business. So every time I get in the ring with him, it’s an awesome experience for me.”

Elsewhere in the same interview, Primo spoke about getting the chance to work with Rey Mysterio earlier in his career. You can read more about that here.
