Big Show busy preparing for WrestleMania 33 match vs. Shaq
The Big Show isn't looking quite so big these days.
With WrestleMania 33 fast approaching, The Big Show - real name Paul Wight - has been hitting the gym hard in preparation for his match against Shaquille O'Neal.

The Big Show told ESPN's Brian Campbell he's under 400 pounds for the first time in over two decades, and joked that O'Neal may want to drop some weight too.
"I'm a little worried because I've heard that Shaq has got like really fat," he said. "If he's going to go into WrestleMania bigger than me, I'm going to lose my moniker as 'The World's Largest Athlete.' I hope he is well, I hope he is healthy.
"He might want to lay off the cheeseburgers a little bit and get in the gym because I know that my record at WrestleMania against celebrities isn't that good, but it would be a shame if he showed up fat and out of shape and took the first loss. I'm okay with that, too. Matter of fact, I'll send him some cheeseburgers. That would probably be a better idea. How's that for talking smack?"
