Shaquille O’Neal had some fun with Kenny Smith on Tuesday’s edition of Inside The NBA as they paid tribute to the “Alpha Male” Monty Brown.
The former WWE/TNA star made the Pounce move iconic with hardcore fans by running over his opponent. Smith hit Shaq with the move on the show after Shaq declared war on Kenny.
O’Neal received praise for his work in his match on an episode of AEW Dynamite in March 2021 when he teamed with Jade Cargill to defeat Cody Rhodes and Red Velvet. During the match, he went through two tables on the floor before being put into an ambulance.
Shaq previously made his in-ring debut as an entrant in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WWE WrestleMania 32 in 2016, where he had a staredown with The Big Show.
Although Shaq has teased a return to the ring, fans are still waiting to see it. Check out the clip below:
