Sting and Cody Rhodes shared an interesting moment on Dynamite
#1 Worst: The AEW Dynamite segment with Brandi Rhodes and Shaq

Play with a 👑, look like a 🤡. Tell your big mouthed windbag @Jade_Cargill to watch me. Maybe she’ll learn to deliver a promo that doesn’t sound like a child’s first Easter speech. This ain’t open mic night. #AEWDynamitepic.twitter.com/SEySNhl9yV
Did Shaq have to look like a chump, during his first-ever appearance on AEW Dynamite? There is nothing wrong with the whole water spilling segment that played out this week, but that should have happened at some point down the line, not during Shaq's AEW Dynamite debut, to be honest.
It is unclear at this moment what Shaq's role will be, and whether he will even get into the ring with Cody Rhodes at some point in time. Unlike Sting, who may be past his prime at this point, Shaq does not have nearly the same level of experience or expertise, and hence, should have been portrayed as a beast.
Instead, Shaq's first sit-down interview on AEW Dynamite ended with water being spilled all over his face, and I ask you, ladies, and gentlemen, did this genuinely get you excited about a Cody Rhodes vs. Shaquille O'Neal match?
If AEW Dynamite wants mainstream exposure from a top-tier superstar, one has to present him as such.
