Rare Photo Shows Shaquille O’Neal Feeling Like a Normal Human Next to Over 7ft Tall WWE Giant

Shaquille O’Neal is one of the greatest basketball players of all time. His listed height is 7 ft 1 in. Throughout his life so far, the NBA legend came across several individuals, including some pro wrestlers as well.

Shaquille O’Neal is no stranger to the pro wrestling fans. In fact, he also appeared in pictures alongside top WWE stars like Dwayne Johnson.

If you see his pictures alongside Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Triple H, Brock Lesnar, the WWE superstars are looking tiny beside him. A major reason behind this is O’Neal’s impressive height.

But this wasn’t the case when Shaquille O’Neal appeared alongside The Great Khali in a single frame.

The Great Khali is one of the tallest and strongest WWE superstars of all time. Back in 2020, he himself posted a picture of himself and Shaquille O’Neal on Instagram.

During his WWE career, he took on some top WWE stars and absolutely dominated them inside the squared circle. The Great Khali even defeated The Undertaker at WWE Judgement Day 2006.

Shaquille O’Neal did not only just click pictures with the WWE stars. He also appeared in WWE. But if he had competed against The Great Khali during his WWE appearances, it would have been a battle to watch out for.
