Paul Wight says that he’s gotten his weight down below 400 pounds, and is looking to get down even further. The AEW star recently spoke with talkSPORT for a new interview on the Sports Breakfast, during which he gave an update on his weight when he was initially introduced as “standing seven feet tall and weighing more than 400 pounds.”

Wight noted in February that he was down to 393 pounds, and told the hosts of Sports Breakfast that he’s shed another 10 pounds. He added that he wants to get down to 350 pounds. You can see highlights below:

On His Weight:

“I’m only 383 (pounds) now, I’ve lost some weight. We’re doing good. I want to get down to about 350.”

On His Calvin Klein Aspirations:

“I want to become a Calvin Klein underwear model, so I’m working on it. Their big and tall section. It’s kind of a big and tall and short, if you put it all together.”

On Pitching The O2 Arena To Tony Khan When They First Met:

“This is one of our biggest global platforms for AEW, is here in London. When I first met my boss, Tony Khan, and we inked the contract, one of my first conversations with him when we were talking about his plans for AEW, I said, ‘Listen, Tony, I’m telling you, I’ve been going to the UK for years, we need to get in to O2 Arena in London. It’s good for the talent.’

“The crowds are different over here and that’s a thing that makes a great talent, is experiencing different crowds and understanding their own character. London and the UK is a great, great experience for talent. They will love AEW, they will love what we bring to the table. So him being a billionaire, I was pitching O2 Arena. He just went right around me and went to Wembley Stadium. 80,000 people, our first run here, set a record for a wrestling event which is pretty exciting.”
