I just found out that Ken Shamrock will return to the ring on the indy scene. The guy is still in great shape. Should TNA offer him a 1 or 2 years contract? I would LOVE to see a Angle vs Shamrock feud.
Ken Shamrock in great shape? Last I heard he was broken down physically. He might look like he's in great shape, but I doubt he can still go, especially in a long match against Angle.
Shamrock is seen as a joke these days. His reputation is in tatters, with the steroid scandal and the amount of defeats to nobodies he's received on small MMA shows. It would look bad hiring Shamrock in 2012. He's a physical mess as well. I don't know what he could even do in the ring anymore. His knees, calfs, back and neck are a complete wreck. I dont see what value he could bring even as a one off. It would be like bringing Chyna back. An old relic from the 90s who everyone sees as a laughing stock.
Battle of INTENSITY. I wonder how many ankle locks they'd try to fit into the match. Throw in davey richards and i might have some interest in watching that car crash
But i don't see the point in bringing shamrock. There's probably better names out there.
With the TNA-Bellator partnership it wouldnt hurt having Shamrock working for you, its a name that any MMA fan knows. Having a Angle-Shamrock feud (and possible King Mo involved somehow) might be able to pursuade the Bellator fans sticking around during a TNA show.
Has anyone got a recent photo of him? Haven't seen him in years. It could work as a special attraction match on a PPV I guess, but I'd rather they use King Mo.
I dont think it would be a bad idea to give him a 6 month run and then reevaluate after that. Im sure he looks great and he does have crossover appeal to the MMA market.
If they being in Shamrock, it'll be that one Impact cameo going into Slammiversary, but it won't be a match. Advertise a cameo made by Shamrock. Cocky heel(s) interrupt him and kick him out so they can wrestle Angle in a 4-5 minute match. Angle wins lol :kurt. Then a beatdown by someone like Gunner and KASH(KASH being Angle's opponent in the match). They mock and disrespect Shamrock. Then he comes in for the save and beat the two down. Angle recovers, and the have a contest of suplexes. They stare down, then lock one or both of them in dual/double Ankle Locks. They let go and the heels limp to the back. Angle and Shamrock then turn to each other, shake hands and hug. The crowd is still going insane as Shamrock raises Angle's hand. That would be a true markout moment. :mark:
I would like to see Ken Shamrock back for Slammiversary to announce the induction of Jeff Jarrett into the HoF.
