Sports entertainment fans should be happy: WWE Superstar The Big Show — real name Paul Wight — is set to recur on Season 2 of Syfy series “Happy.”
“The World’s Largest Athlete” (7-feet-tall, 440 lbs., 22 EEEEE shoe size and a 64-inch chest work for you?) will play Big Pink, the cellmate of Mr. Blue (Ritchie Coster), on five episodes of the upcoming run.
“Happy” stars Christopher Meloni as Nic Sax, a corrupt ex-detective-turned-hitman whose life is changed forever when an imaginary and extremely positive blue-winged horse named Happy (voiced by Patton Oswalt) appears.
Wight’s TV and film credits include “Psych,” “Royal Pains,” “Burn Notice,” “The Waterboy,” “Star Trek: Enterprises” and “MacGruber.”
Oh, and he’s also done some professional wrestling. The six-time world champion is the first wrestler in history to capture the WWE, WCW and ECW Championships.
Wight is repped by APA and Sam Perlmutter Law Office.
“Happy” returns to Syfy in 2019.
