WWE Superstar Big Show to attend Wizard World Atlanta Comic Con on Saturday, May 31

NEW YORK — The inaugural Wizard World
Atlanta Comic Con just got a lot “bigger” as
The World’s Largest Athlete, WWE Superstar
Big Show, will attend Wizard World Atlanta
Comic Con on Saturday, May 31, at the
Georgia World Congress Center. It will mark
the first Wizard World appearance for the 7-
foot-tall, 441-pound, larger-than-life WWE
Superstar who will sign autographs and pose
for photo ops from 12:30-2:45pm and will
participate in a Q&A session from
3:00-3:30pm as announced today by Wizard
World, Inc.
Big Show's appearance in Atlanta follows those
of other WWE Superstars and Divas at recent
Wizard World Comic Cons, including Sheamus,
Randy Orton, John Cena, AJ Lee and others.
“I have heard all the great things other WWE
Superstars have said about Wizard World, and
I can’t wait to meet the WWE Universe at the
inaugural Wizard World Atlanta Comic Con,"
said Big Show.
“WWE Superstar Big Show is a giant superhero
for so many kids across several generations of
fans,” said John Macaluso, Wizard World CEO.
“He is a giant of a man, with a giant fanbase
to match, and we are thrilled to have him for
the first time ever at our Atlanta event.”

Giant and Big John Studd, Big Show is a
feared competitor who intimidates opponents
with his size and stare alone. The World’s
Largest Athlete’s measurements are
astounding: he wears a 22 EEEEE size shoe and
boasts a 64-inch chest. The man from Aiken,
South Carolina, who was discovered at a
charity basketball game by Hulk Hogan, has
met some of the biggest stars in sports face-
to-face in the middle of a WWE ring. He has
even taken on boxing champ Floyd
Mayweather and NBA All-Star Shaquille O’Neal
to the delight of millions of fans around the
world.

to film and television roles. His film credits
include 2010’s starring role as Walter Krunk
in the WWE Studios family comedy
Knucklehead alongside an all-star cast,
including Mark Feuerstein (“Royal Pains”),
Melora Hardin (“The Office”), Dennis Farina
(“Law & Order”) and Wendie Malick (“Just
Shoot Me!”). He has also appeared in the
feature films “MacGruber,” “Jingle All the
Way,” “Reggie’s Prayer,” “Little Hercules in 3-
D” and “Waterboy.” In addition, Big Show has
guest-starred on popular television shows,
including USA Network’s “Burn Notice,”
Nickelodeon’s “Supah Ninjas,” “Brain Surge,”
“Saturday Night Live” and “Star Trek:
Enterprise.”
Big Show joins such noted pop culture figures
as Nathan Fillion (“Castle,” “Serenity”),
Norman Reedus, Lauren Cohan, Jon Bernthal
and Michael Rooker of “The Walking Dead,”
James Marsters (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer,”
“Torchwood”), Milo Ventimiglia (“Heroes,”
“Rocky Balboa”) and many others at Wizard
World Atlanta Comic Con, set for May 30
through June 1.
