During his latest interview for After The Bell podcast, Paul Donald Wight II aka Big Show opened up about Lesnar’s role in his career. He revealed that WWE star Lesnar requested to work with him when Show was still struggling to make a mark in the wrestling world.
Back in 2002, after he was sent to the OVW developmental system to work on his in-ring ability, Show was just used as mid-card talent and was not included in the main events for a very long time. However, it changes when Lesnar locked horns with him in an impromptu match at a WWE live event and set the ring on fire with their powerful blows. Show mentioned that following their fight, Paul Heyman got a lot of requests to organise more fights between Show and Lesnar.
