After AEW announced the signing of Paul Wight (aka Big Show), it is being reported that more WWE Superstars are open to offers from elsewhere.

According to Wrestle Votes, all WWE Superstars are willing to talk to other wrestling companies, especially when their contracts are due to expire.

I don’t have anything “insider” to add to the Paul Wight AEW signing news, except for the fact that the line of communication is open and ALL are listening to offers when it’s time for new contracts. This news should hammer that home. Everyone listens. Everyone.

Paul Wight last appeared on WWE television as Big Show in a segment with Randy Orton on the Legends Night episode of RAW on January 4, 2021. His last official match for WWE came in a losing effort against Orton on the July 20, 2020 episode of RAW.

The seven-foot star has joined AEW as an in-ring competitor, as well as a commentator for new show AEW Dark: Elevation. AEW CEO Tony Khan confirmed that Wight will also represent AEW as a host and ambassador.
