WATCH: 400lb Shaquille O’Neal Was Once Rushed in an Ambulance After Crashing Through Tables on AEW

Shaquille O’Neal is the kind of guy who will continue with his antics for perhaps the rest of his life. Even when he will be 70. We are sure of it. Why? Because just two years ago, at the ripe age of 48, he was sent hurling through two tables at a wrestling event.

Since he isn’t a professional wrestler, we expect that his body will not be used to the sheer amount of injuries. So, what are we talking about? And when did this happen?

Throw it back to 2021, when AEW had Shaq as a special guest. He was part of the tag team with Jade Cargill and they faced off against, Cody Rhodes and Red Velvet. There was only one outcome for this, and that was Shaq falling.

But the actual result was quite bad.

WATCH: The Clip that sent Shaquille O’Neal in an Ambulance

AEW is wrestling, which means injuries and scares. Well, for Shaq, it all became reality when Cody Rhoades tackled him from one end of the ring and straight into two tables!

Both the tables collapsed under Shaquille O’Neal, who at the time was rumored to be weighing around 400 lbs. No table will survive that much weight.

And the worst part is that Shaq didn’t move after the incident. In fact, he was carried out of the arena in an ambulance. Just take a look at how the events unfolded.

How did Shaq end up leaving in an ambulance?

The extent of the hit was so bad that there were videos of Shaq being evacuated out of the arena in an ambulance.

You can take a look at the video that caused the scare.

But eager fans noticed that there was no Shaq inside the ambulance and some even saw the 7-footer walk backstage. Which means that he was fine.
