The Pro Wrestling Torch is reporting that Paul "The Big Show" Wight's contract with WWE expired just a few days ago. As previously reported, Wight was offered a six-figure "intellectual property" offer where WWE would retain the rights to his likeness to be used in any project. Wight turned that offer down.

Because he turned the offer down, it sparked rumors that TNA could be an option for him down the line. As of now, he isn't expected to sign with the company anytime soon and is currenty involved in a project that will be announced before the summer.

It should be noted that since leaving WWE, Wight has lost a lot of weight and is now taking better care of himself since he is no longer on the road full-time to be tempted by restaurants and catering. Wight also has reportedly stopped smoking (he was said to be a big chain smoker).
