Shaq would probably have to fight a guy in the 155lb division to have a chance.

2 things I'm looking forward to seeing from this is Carlito attempting pay back, and Shaq meeting the Big Show.

What won't Shaq do on TV? I wonder if he has a list of stuff. If he does, he probually wrote down the word "porno" and then could'nt think of anything else to add to the list.

Hopefully Kobe will follow, and we can now have a Dennis Rodman vs. Karl Malone circus all over again. I wouldn't doubt Shaq 'shooting' out of the script if he gets his hands on Kobe though :lol:

Rodman vs. Malone was epic.

The average WWE salary is probably around $200k compared to the $5.8 million average NBA salary - there's not way any wrestler can make more money than any decent professional athlete.


Triple H makes $2 mill. More then a lot of decent professional athletes.

I'm assuming by "decent" he meant players that at least make the average MLE salary, which would mean Triple H (one of the biggest superstars in wrestling) makes only close to half of what an average NBA player makes...

Shaq would laugh at your offer and then sign on with TNT as a broadcaster. He'd probably make more money while not having to endure tough physical conditions on a grueling schedule that he would in the WWE.

Yea he is. He's a legit 7 foot, but they used to bill him at 500 lbs which was grossly over what he actually weighed. He actually weighs around or bit under 400 lbs, but make no mistake, he's a 7 footer.

shaqs a huge pro-wrestling fan so would obviously jump at the chance to do this, he was in hulk hogans corner in 1994 during hogans debut with ted turners wcw and is often seen at live wwe ppvs with his kids these days, he ain't the only nba player to be a big pro-wrestling fan either, guys like tim duncan and Dikembe Mutombo have been photographed backstage at events

anyway its not like other sports stars haven't worked for wwe/f in the past, names such as ali, tyson, mayweather, lennox lewis, Lawrence Taylor, walter payton, reggie white have all worked in some capacity for vince mcmahon

when big show left wwe in 2006 he was morbidly overweight at something like 507lb (this according to the man who trained him to become a boxer in florida), today he weighs in at about 440lb, he was weighed during on a live show a while back along with mayweather

regarding his height, he played ncaa ball with wichita state at center in 1991-92, he was listed there at 7ft 1, so he is at least 6ft 10, he is certainly taller than michael beasley, while at wichita state he weighed 335lb and looked like a stick figure compared to his wrestling days

Jeremy Piven will be hosting the show two weeks from now, so there's another solid guest.
