Paul Wight addresses his return to the ring for All Elite Wrestling.
On tonight’s edition of AEW Dynamite, a blockbuster eight man tag team match is set to happen between The Don Callis Family and Kenny Omega, Chris Jericho, Kota Ibushi and Paul Wight.
This will be Wight’s first televised match since March 2022.
Speaking with TMZ Sports, Wight previewed his return to the ring, noting that he is both nervous and excited for the matchup.
“I am excited. To be honest with you, I’m nervous. I think that’s part of the draw or the magic of doing what we do is that anticipation, that adrenaline rush of performing in front of a crowd and wanting to put on a good show, an exciting show, and that’s a hard fix to get anywhere else. You have to adjust your expectations on what you’re doing as things mature. Because when you’re younger, it’s kind of about you. They’re building you. Well, I’m built. So now it’s my chance to give back to other talent and help younger talent establish themselves and hopefully become household names at some point,”
Paul Wight
We will have to wait and see if Wight and co will be able to defeat The Don Callis Family on tonight’s AEW Dynamite.
