Shaquille O'Neal is no stranger to the world of professional wrestling. The NBA Hall of Famer has famously tried his hand at heavyweight fights on WWE, and most recently on AEW. Based on Shaq's latest call out, looks like he's not planning to hang up his rassling boots anytime soon.

The (non-Kevin Nash) Diesel spoke out in an interview with Pop Culture‘s Victoria Moghaddami on the possibility of making an in-ring return with AEW. But this time, Shaq has his sights set on a gargantuan showdown with Paul Wight, who is more commonly known as The Big Show:

“But I look forward to doing it again, and I hear that Paul White’s still talking trash,” Shaq said. “So I’m gonna work out really hard this summer, and maybe we could do something very, very soon.”

“On the possibility of him facing White in AEW: “There shouldn’t be any problems for us getting together now. Last time there was a lot of bureaucracy and red tape, now there is no red tape. I’m still still kind of sore from that table, so I’m going to work out the summer, pump these muscles up, and I’ll be waiting for you, Mr. Paul.”

Not one to keep silent, Big Show responded with a tweet of his own claiming he's not in any way ducking the 4-time NBA champion. Wight had just five simple words for Shaquille O'Neal's call out.
