2. Big Show Vs. Shaq

Big Show vs. Shaq may not exactly be on the same level as the other aforementioned dream matches, but it is arguably the last real money match WWE can do with Big Show at this stage of his career. He has faced everyone on the roster at least twice, and no one from the current crop of guys is an exciting enough opponent for him.

Although he isn't a trained wrestler, Shaq has plenty of buzz surrounding him even in retirement. ESPN had a field day when Shaq and Show locked up on Raw back in the summer of 2009, and it was mind-boggling WWE never followed up on it. It took them longer than expected, but they finally had them cross paths at WrestleMania 32 in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal, possibly setting the stage for a one-on-one 'Mania match the next year.

Big Show has wrestled only once on WWE TV since then, and has hinted at retiring from in-ring competition in 2017. But neither he nor Shaq have shied away from saying they want to face each other in Orlando next year, going so far as to virtually confirm it for the card. WWE has yet to make it official, but either way, it would be a fun attraction for the event if kept short and sweet.
