The Big Show

December 1, 1998

Yeah, it's The Big Show. Paul Wight, the 500-pound wrestling star, was arrested in December 1998 by Memphis cops for allegedly exposing himself to a female motel employee. The criminal case, though, was subsequently dropped due to insufficient evidence. Wight--then billed as The Giant--was in town for a World Championship Wrestling (WCW) event. Wight, 31, now rassles as The Big Show for Vince McMahon's World Wrestling Entertainment, which purchased WCW in 2001.

Yeah, more like the motel worker realized that she couldn't prove something that didn't happen. It was silly then and it's silly now. Paul Wight seems, in interviews, like such a decent and gentle man. Stranger things have happened, but I cannot picture the Big Show flashing a woman. He seems far too respectful for tht kinda crap.
