"He's got to be what, 440, 450 pounds?" Big Show said. "He's gotten pretty fat. Me on the other hand? I just weighed in this morning — 379 pounds.

"Maybe he doesn't want to put on spandex and show the entire world that Shaquille O'Neal, one of the greatest basketball players of all time, looks like Jabba the Hutt. It's on him. He has to weigh these consequences in his own mind. Does he want the world to know how fat and out of shape he is? Or does he want to sit back and talk s-it into a podcast?"
