Melissa Ann Piavis was in the spotlight when she got into a relationship with Paul Wight, aka The Big Show. The couple got married in 1997, but they could not hold on to their marriage for long.
The Big Show loved something else, which was even important than his wife and his marriage. His love for something else hindered the relationship with his wife. But Show has no regrets about it.
The article below shows what was so important for Show that he even didn’t even prioritize his marriage.
The Big Show & Ex-Wife Melissa Ann Piavis:
Melissa Ann Piavis, ex husband Wight has been in the professional wrestling business for 25 years after signing a contract with WCW in 1995. It was during this time that he also was with Piave. The Big How got married to Piavis on Valentine’s Day in 1997.
It is clearly visible where their marriage headed after that. No matter how much he loved Piavis, he would always prioritize being a wrestler over being a husband. He went on to win the WWF title in late 1999, only to lose it in 2000. But that was not the only thing he lost that year; Paul also lost his wife Melissa later that year.
They finally got divorced in 2002, the same year he retained his title.
His New Relationship:
Wight, aka The Big Show, found love for the second time, but this time with a model. And just after five days from his divorce from his first ex-wife Melissa Ann Piavis, he got married to Bess Katramados on 11 February 2002.
He has two children from his marriage with Bess. He also has a daughter named Cierra Wight from Piavis.
Wight being a WWE sensation, he was open about his relationship, but his wife wanted a low-key life on the other side. That might be the reason she doesn’t appear in front of the media.
The first and the only time we saw Bess was during the WWE Hall Of Famer event in April 2015.
Short Bio Of ‘The Big Show’
