Big Show

Paul Wight (born February 8, 1972 in Tampa, Florida), best known by his ring names of "The Big Show" or simply "The Giant," is a professional wrestler currently working for WWE on the Smackdown! brand.

He stands 7'1" tall and weighs approximately 400 pounds. However, unlike his famous predecessor, Andre the Giant, he does not have acromegaly or "giantism." He is simply a very large man.

Wight made his professional wrestling debut in 1995 with WCW, and won his first WCW World Title in April 1996 at the age of 24, becoming the youngest man to become the top champion in either WWE or WCW. He also held the WCW World Tag Team titles with both Sting and Scott Hall in 1998 before joining the WWF in early 1999.

He won his first WWF World Title in November 1999, and has since held another World title (in 2002) as well as the WWF World Tag Team titles (with The Undertaker in 1999), the United States title, and the Hardcore title.

Wight is well-known behind the scenes and in the media for his easygoing, affable nature and his sharp sense of humor.
