Paul Wight: I’ve Learned Quite A Few Things From Shaquille O’Neal

Paul Wight says that he’s learned quite a few things from Shaquille O’Neal over the years given their shared status as giants.

Over the years, iconic basketball player Shaquille O’Neal has had several forays into the world of professional wrestling, including in both WWE and AEW. One man he has crossed paths with is Paul Wight, with the pair sharing the aspect that they are both giants.

While speaking to Going Ringside in a new interview, Paul Wight spoke about working with Shaquille O’Neal.

“Shaq is a wonderful, wonderful human being. We laugh every time we’re around each other. We have experienced all the same things as far as being bigger in size and whatnot. He loves wrestling. He’s got a great attitude. Super keen, super keen business mind. I know that Kevin Hart and a lot of comedians give him a hard time about him talking slow. Let me tell you something. That brother is smart. I’ve learned quite a few things. Even the little conversations we’ve had about things, I was like, ‘eh, that guy’s on to something.'”

Earlier this year, Shaq would hang out with Kemalito. You can read more about that here.
