– During a recent interview with the Miami Herald, WWE’s giant Big Show was asked about the rumors of NBA star Shaquille O’Neal competing at WrestleMania 28. Big Show said:
“I know there are a lot of rumors this year that I might get a chance to compete against Shaq at WrestleMania [28 Miami]. I didn’t hear anything about it on my end.
I don’t know if Shaq was getting froggy, stirring up some stuff, but if he ever wants to take his Nike butt away from the announcers’ desk and try to step in the ring, he’s more than welcome to try.
I teach as well as I compete. So he can come on down and get a lesson.”
It was announced on SmackDown last week that Big Show will challenge Intercontinental champion Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania – so a match with Shaq seems highly unlikely at this point.
