Shaquille O’Neal Announces Return To Wrestling

One more time? Celebrities are a natural fit in wrestling as it can be interesting to see what happens when a famous person come into a different world. This is something that has been done for decades in wrestling and there is nothing to suggest that it will be stopping anytime soon. It took place earlier this year and it might be the case again before the year is done.

During the Thursday night edition of Inside The NBA on TNT, Shaquille O’Neal was asked when he would be wrestling again. O’Neal said that it would be “Soon. This summer.” O’Neal did not give any more details than that, including where he would be wrestling. This comes after O’Neal wrestled a tag team match on the March 3 edition of AEW Dynamite. O’Neal’s only other match took place at WrestleMania 32, when he took part in the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal.

O’Neal has done well in his time in the ring. Check out what he has done:

Opinion: It would not surprise me whatsoever to see O’Neal back in an AEW ring sooner rather than later. He is a draw just based on his celebrity status so putting him back on Dynamite would make a lot of sense. You don’t get that kind of a star very often and AEW knew how to use him. Keep the appearances coming, but make sure you keep them coming infrequently.

When will O’Neal wrestle again? Who do you want to see him face? Let us know in the comments below.
