I just heard some rumors about Shaquille O'Neal (NBA Player) having a match against Big Show in WrestleMania26. For those who don't know, Shaquille O'Neal (in the picture left) hosted Monday Night Raw as a special guest host on July 27th, 2009 (6 months ago). On that day, he had a little go against Big Show. Both the giants looking after each eyes ended up with a little push against each other... I for one would enjoy watching the both wrestle at WrestleMania26 but I'm concerned about the genuineness of this rumor.... So what do you think?

I hope this one comes true. They did that little scuffle in July between Shaq and Big Show. Then there was pretty much nothing after that. It was just like it happened and no payoff. There was talk for a bit that something might happen at Summerslam, but it was very short lived. To see a match between Shaq and the Big Show, would be spectacle to say the least. It would be one to watch at Wrestlemania 26, if that one comes true.

Shaquille O'Neal Nba Player - Rumors about Shaquille O'Neal having a match against Big show in wrestlemania26
Yes, it would be a classic one to watch... Every year at WrestleMania there use to be a celebrity match like for example we had last year Chris Jericho vs the retired legends and Floyd Mayweather vs Big Show the previous year... On a sidenote, forgot to add the picture... Here it is..

i am not surprised about shaq or the "wrestling". they REALLY mean it when they say "sports entertainment". even so, it's bad entertainment because the story lines are obviously that. this is because of the poor acting. i think shaq isn't going to do any better at delivering. he was not a good actor in any of his movies. i think wrestling is just about finished.

hi vince. it might happen but i really don't see how they can hype this one again. shaq and big show seemed to be evenly matched physically but i'd rather see another match instead of this one. has wwe creative really ran out of ideas? lol! anyway, might be a good filler of a match. i wonder who will be in shaq's corner and how wwe creative will develop this storyline? might be great if shaq has either cryme tyme or ron truth. big show for sure would have the miz and perhaps chris jericho in his corner. if wwe creative refers back to the time that shaq hosted monday night raw, it wouldn't be fresh in the minds of wwe fans. just curious how this pans out. just my thoughts.

I hednt ctually heard this until now I ahve to say though you never know with WWE. They like having people like that come in t wrestlemania for the gimmick matches. I hope it doesnt happen Im getting sick of the guest host thing and I dont think we need anymore of that at wrestlemania. Just stick to the real wrestlers.

This rumor had more substance back when Shaq hosted Raw. With Wrestle Mania taking place in the middle of the NBA season, I don't see the Cleveland Cavilers allowing Shaq to wrestle in March. I could see this match happening at Summer Slam in August as the NBA season will be in it's off season.

Well to be honest if it is true that would be just awesome because that would be a match to remember for all the years to come. Not only that but it sure would make the ratings go up. I believe that they would be really good against each other. I guess we will have to just wait till WrestleMania26. It would be cool if it is right. Happy Mylotting

I think this rumor is pretty much true because usually WWE matches celebrities against professional wrestlers during Wrestlemania, the most recent one that I can remember is Floyd Mayweather. Most of the time, it is the celebrity who wins against the wrestler. Anyway, I don't mind watching Shaquille O' Neal wrestle but somehow if this happens I would always associate this with Dennis Rodman because Dennis is the only basketball player I know that became a wrestler as well.

I don't know if this will stay as a rumor or they would actually make this two giants meet. I don't know if it would be beneficial for Shaquille's career but it's WWE and we know that they will do anything just for entertainment
