Shaquille O’Neal’s All Elite Wrestling debut won’t be on pay-per-view.
While many assumed that O’Neal would be a pay-per-view attraction, he’ll actually wrestle on the March 3 edition of AEW Dynamite. The promotion made his mixed tag match against Cody Rhodes and Red Velvet (who is replacing Cody’s pregnant wife Brandi Rhodes) official tonight. “Shaq” will be teaming up with AEW newcomer Jade Cargill, who will make her professional wrestling debut.

This will serve as the NBA legend’s second pro wrestling match. He previously appeared at WWE WrestleMania 32 during the Andre The Giant Memorail Battle Royal. O’Neal had been rumored to face the Big Show for many years, but the match never came to fruition.
