Paul Wight provides the latest update on his health.
Paul Wight has made appearances on-screen as a member of the ROH Board of Directors in recent months. However, he has not wrestled since January, when he competed on the Jericho Cruise. He has not had a televised match since November 2023. Wight recently provided an update after he had both knees and hips replaced.
Speaking on The Run Home with Joel & Fletch, Paul Wight discussed how his knees were feeling, and he stated that there were no problems. (H/t Jeremy Lambert of Fightful for the transcription)
“Knees are good,” he said. “They’re both fake so there are no problems with them. They’re both brand new. There is no bone-on-bone arthritis. I have a full replacement on my left knee and a partial replacement on my right knee. They are straight, I’m not knot-kneed anymore. We’re doing pretty good. A couple months back, I was working out, and I sheered the titanium button off the kneecap. There is nothing you can do about that. They just had to go in and take the button out because it protects the kneecap.”
Paul Wight On His Recovery
Wight went on to say that everything was “coming along good,” and he was pleased with it. He stated that they were turning the corner, and he was happy about the progress.
“With me sheering off the titanium pin, they just looked at me and went, ‘Eh, there is nothing we can do, it might get sore,'” Wight said. “Some days, if I work out a little too hard, it gets a little sore. So far, it’s coming along good. We’re deadlifting, squatting, leg pressing. Everything is coming along good. I’m very pleased with it so far, considering all the surgeries I’ve had, we’re turning the corner, and I’m really happy about it.”
WrestleZone will provide more information as it becomes available.
