WWE legend The Big Show will revive Waterboy character Captain Insano for one last run


quote:

Referencing his character from 1998 Adam Sandler comedy The Waterboy, he said: ‘He’ll [Captain Insano] be back. The guy who wrote The Waterboy has approved.

‘Tony Khan and I have secured the rights to Captain Insano. There’s already an outfit made, the whole nine yards. We’re doing a lot of prep work, and this will be my last hoorah so to speak.’

It sounds like Wight wants to bring back his wrestling alter ego – who appeared as the TV hero of Sandler’s character – for one last in-ring stint before he retires, but he insisted it’s simply meant to be ‘fun’.

Captain Insano shows no mercy..

He should have Adam Sandler ringside as his Waterboy.

Didn't even realize that was the Big Show. He looks way different with long hair.

I think this is stupid. I think The Big Show could come up with a better character than Captain Insano.

I’m just glad Paul didn’t die when Hogan threw him off the roof at Halloween Havoc
