MANILA, Philippines – Popular WWE superstar The Big Show and NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal have already agreed to face off at WrestleMania 33 in Orlando next year, but first, The Big Show wants to challenge "Shaq" to a free-throw shooting contest.

The two men agreed to face each other when they met at the red carpet during the ESPYs earlier this month, just a couple of months after they participated in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania 32.

At the ESPYs, The Big Show offered to wrestle O'Neal at WrestleMania 33 and "have some fun."

"Are you sure you want to do that?" asked O'Neal.

"Man, I don't have much time left. Might as well have some fun with you," The Big Show answered.

O'Neal responded: "Let's do it. I'm in. Vince McMahon, Shane McMahon, I'm in."

On Tuesday, during a promotional tour in Manila, The Big Show seemed genuinely excited for his upcoming match against O'Neal in April 2017 and even talked a little trash.

"We're gonna start off with a free throw shooting contest," said Big Show. "I used to shoot 90% from the line."

O'Neal is a notoriously poor free throw shooter, converting only 52.7% of his attempts at the line in his storied NBA career

Big Show, for his part, played basketball in high school and college. He suited up for the Northern Oklahoma Junior College before transferring to Wichita State. At the time, he was already 7-foot-1 and weighed 325 pounds.

"God, I haven't shot a free throw in so long," Big Show later admitted. "I don't think I can even get it to the rim now. I might want to work on that before I talk trash."

"But yes, we got a match at WrestleMania. We'll see."
