If a fast moving big heavy asteroid hit the moon at a trajectory that shattered it, but with debris moving away from the earth, we might end up with a ring ala Saturn.

As far as being hollow, there may be large caverns in the moon. I'm not sure anyone has proven that it’s anywhere near being hollow. It does tend to resonate when hit by something. Instruments left by the Astronauts indicated this.
