Fifteen-time NBA All-Star and current TNT analyst Shaquille O'Neal made his way to the ring as a surprise entrant in the third annual Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania 32 on Sunday night.
The 7-foot-1 giant had an epic staredown with WWE superstar The Big Show in the center of the ring, with all other participants focusing their attention on the two behemoths standing before them.
"The Big Red Machine" Kane looked to deliver an improbable double chokeslam, but to no avail.

Shaq's time in the match didn't last long, as everyone involved tossed "The Big Aristotle" and Big Show over the top rope simultaneously.
The Battle Royal was eventually won by NXT standout Baron Corbin, who eliminated Kane last to earn himself the win and the trophy.
