Shaquille O’Neal is an interesting personality. Whether it be on the court, or as a business mogul, he’s been successful at each stop. While his on-court career is legendary, his stint as a media personality has become just as iconic. However, one thing Shaq hasn’t given up is his passion. From DJing as Diesel to putting in a stint at WrestleMania, Shaq has found a way to take an active part in things that he enjoys.

While he isn’t releasing bangers recorded at Home Depot, Shaq’s Instagram story is a constant highlight. A microcosm of IG as a whole, his story is filled with the weird, the funny, and oftentimes, the crazy. So, his latest story while shocking, wasn’t all that surprising.

A little girl channels her inner Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar is one of the most recognizable names in pro wrestling history. The man has won every major award available in the wrestling industry. From the NCAA Division I title to the UFC Heavyweight Championship – he’s been a prize-collecting machine. However, his most dominant run came in the world of the WWE. In his initial presentation, it was clear that he was going to be a star. The Next Big Thing as he was nicknamed would go on to win the heavyweight title in record time and hold numerous records in the process.

But it was his return in 2012 that saw Brock reach his optimal level. Portrayed as the Beast Incarnate, Brock became a machine designed to inflict punishment. After ending the Undertaker’s 21-0 winning streak at Wrestlemania, Lesnar would go on to dominate John Cena with 16 German suplexes in a one-sided squash at Summerslam the same year.

Brock then entered a heated rivalry against company poster boy Roman Reigns. At their eventual championship match at Wrestlemania 31, a similar tale to the match against Cena began. After delivering his 5th suplex, Lesnar screamed at a prone Reigns, “Suplex City B****!” 

The phrase became instantly iconic and is constantly used in chants by wrestling fans around the world. So, when a little girl in an amateur wrestling ring, Brock’s old hunting ground, used the same maneuver, it brought back vivid memories of Brock doing the same to industry icons.

Of course, Shaq would know all about it, having been in a wrestling ring with multiple icons.

Shaquille O’Neal fought at WrestleMania

The year after the creation of Suplex City, the WWE hosted its third annual Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal. There, fans got to see a long-overdue rivalry come to a head. Years back in 2011, when Shaq guest hosted an episode of Monday Night Raw, he got into it with 7FT giant The Big Show.

Both men, in the years after, voiced their desire for a match. While the match ultimately did not happen, we got to see a teaser for the same at WrestleMania 32. With all competitors in the ring, fans at the AT&T center lost their minds when Shaquille O’Neal popped up in the match for a staredown against his former nemesis.
