Shaquille O'Neal's involvement in a match alongside Jade Cargill to face Cody Rhodes and Red Velvet was the biggest part of this week's AEW Dynamite.

Both Shaq and Cargill made their in-ring debuts for AEW this week, and neither star disappointed, for the most part. Usually, crossover stars don't understand various aspects of professional wrestling, but Shaq played his role well as an intimidating giant.

Although the NBA legend got knocked out after being put through two tables by Rhodes, Cargill managed to successfully pin Red Velvet for the victory. So even if Shaq was knocked unconscious, his team emerged victorious on AEW Dynamite.

After the match, Shaq was rushed into an ambulance. However, when Tony Schiavone wanted a medical update, there was no one present inside the vehicle.

Apart from his sports credentials, Shaq has to be a master magician, right? His sudden disappearance indicates that the NBA legend's AEW stint isn't over just yet.

The match itself was an exhilarating ride for the fans in attendance. As for Cargill, she could soon become a major threat to Hikaru Shida's reign as the AEW Women's Champion.
