Tony Schiavone discussed the advice he gave Paul Wight when he first started working as an announcer for AEW during the most recent episode of his “What Happened When” podcast.
Wight started working for the company in February 2021 by calling the action on AEW Dark: Elevation a month later. He was a color commentator then, but he is currently working as a play-by-play announcer. Schiavone said,
“Paul Wight is starting to do play-by-play for us on Elevation. I think he’ll be very good. I told him, ‘Go back and listen to Gorilla Monsoon. Listen to all of what he did.’ Paul is willing to learn and work hard at being an announcer.”
