What was Shane McMahon: Hardcore legend? Suicidal? A son desperate for his father's approval?

I don't know, but I can tell you what he's not...

:HHH:trips3trips4:jplhhh2 - His favorite

[Roho]

Shane was willing to do whatever it took to entertain the crowd. Granted, he could take more liberties with his body as he didn't ever have to wrestle a full schedule, but he laid it all out when he was in the ring and he has forever earned my respect.

 

[GREAThirteen]

Hardcore legend....also, you misquoted Ryback in your signature.

 

[Chrome]

He was entertaining, and that's what is most important to me.

 

[Immortal_Phenom]

None of the above.

He was an employee out there doing his job, taking risks, & having fun.

If he was desperate for his father's approval, HHH wouldn't be wrestling right now because Shane would have the career that the McMahon's have created utilizing HHH.

 

[5 Star Giulia ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐]

Shane proved he is certainly not a pussy. He has made my Top 20 of all time for risking his life and having the balls to do stunts that contracted wrestlers won't attempt to this day.

 

[Godway]

He's like the JFK Jr of wrestling. I never had a problem with him getting involved in feuds/matches, because it's not like he had a huge ego and thought he was a legit wrestler who should be beating this guy or that guy. He came in to get KILLED by people, and always jobbed. When he never had to do any of that.

 

[Oscirus]

He was insane. He wrestled in one match where the glass wouldn't break, another match where the table wouldn't break. I'll give him props, he's definitely one of my favs.

 

[Lightupbob]

Total respect for Shane

 

[KakeRock]

I would say Shane is a "living legend".

 

[The People's H2O]

He was earning his spot.

 

[Donnie]

he was a crazy son of a bitch that took insane risks and left us with a lifetime of memories not bad for a guy that only worked like 14 matches

 

[The Assassin (IVV)]

Shane was the epitome of a spot monkey. I'm also never going to forget his godawful punches!

 

[Barbequegirl]

Shane > Trips

The fact that Vince chose the son in law over his son is disgusting.

 

[Punkhead]

I know one thing for sure. The man's got some balls.

 

[Rigby]

Legend? Really? He had a handful of neat matches where he jumped off things and went through glass, sure, but that's a very low bar you're setting if this guy is a legend. Terry Funk is a legend. Mick Foley is a legend. Abdullah the Butcher, Mr. Pogo, the Original Sheik are hardcore legends. Shane McMahon jumped onto a crash pad a couple times and couldn't throw a punch to save his life.

 

[King187]

Shane never had to do any of what he did in the ring, that's why he has everyone's respect. I think he just loved wrestling that much, and he was willing to do whatever he had to, to contribute and earn the respect of the guys there. It wasn't about fame or money.

 

[cokecan567]

Shane McMahon earned my respect. The dude took some CRAZY fucking bumps.... really epic feud with Kane in 2003.... Epic match with Kurt Angle.... The dude is truly a hardcore legend.

And I wish he'd come back....

 

[Dec_619]

Shane O Mac was awesome to watch. Was only watching him with Big Show last night on RAW after No Way Out 2000.

 

[bigbuxxx]

Somebody who knew his limitations and what he had to do to be entertaining and a believable heel...and sometimes, face.
