He's in the zone! 7/10

[JimmyMess]

Mark out moment. Gets an 8.

[Ruien]

7/10, just another solid wrestler.

[Rock Bottom]

7. I really liked him when he came to the WWE.

[Londoner]

6

[Xerzes]

Usually entertaining, even if placed in a lot of weird crap. Solid 7.

[RiX1024]

7, great wrestler, underrated in a way but poor mic skills and another wasted opportunity. Would of love to see him vs Angle but he buggered off too early.

pretty much this..... Imagine him in the IC/Euro feuds along with ANgle, Benoit, Jericho & Guerrero.....:eek::drool:

[stultiloquy]

6 from me.

Solid in the ring, but didn't bring much to the table from the personality front. Just a bunch of yelling, screaming, and threats which got old with me pretty quick.

[jskinnyg]

Damn, I am gonna get hated... I gave him a 3... Not entertaining to me as I remember...

[XCaliber]

As a wrestler he was terrific but on the mic not so much but still a solid 8.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

I had to give him a 1 to balance off somebody giving him a 10.

[Rammsteinmad]

I gave him a 7. Kinda weird view on Shamrock. Back in the day (when I was mark) he was awesome, and his 'world's most dangerous man' seemed legit from his MMA background. Some great memories there.

However, any time I look back at Shamrock matches now, to be honest he isn't really THAT great in the ring. He's good, don't get me wrong, but I think he often gets a bit too much praise.

Still, memories are memories... :)

Loved him when he was the Worlds Most Dangerous Man - not so much post corporation but still great. His beating of the Rock at KOTR in 98 was actually my favourite moment of the whole PPV which is quite strange given that was the night Taker threw Mankind of and through the HIAC.

8.

[Ultra Mantis]

Loved watching Shamrock a lot more than he really desersved. He wasn't really great at anything but he looked like a badass and was very believable as a fucking lunatic who snapped ankles. I'll give him a 7.

Though I do remember this segment where he "snapped" after losing to The Rock and gave several refs / security guards the weakest looking belly to belly suplexes the world has ever seen. Can't mark him down for it though because Steve Blackman.

[Rollermacka]

I thought Ken Shamrock was AWESOME back in the WWE. He was good in the ring and I thought it was badass when he would snap and lake out like 3 guys. He was much more charismatic than Severn and Tank put together but when you look at his run in the beginning of TNA... :-\ I would agree with a 7, decient wrestler, not too much he could grow gimmick wise besides "snap" but overall better than average

[Wolfpack423]

I gave him an 8. Ken Shamrock has always been a favorite of mine. He was solid in the ring and he was the third most over guy on the face side for the year of 1998 after Austin and HHH. Shamrock had solid matches with so many people including The Rock (loved this feud). Shamrock snapping on the officials and bringing the Ankle Lock in was great. He employed alot of the submission styles that was more prominent in the early-mid 2000s. I always thought Shamrock was ahead of his time and would have been more at home wrestling the likes of Angle, Benoit, Jericho(feud never really got off the ground), and Guerrero. He is involved in the most underrated match of all time with The Undertaker at Backlash 1999. I personally really like that match. His mic skills weren't that good, but neither were Benoit or Malenkos.

[Emperor Smeat]

Gave him a 7 overall.

He transitioned well from MMA and was decent in the mid-card level with some nice feuds and moments. I did like how he kept his submission style from MMA as part of his wrestling character which helped make him look legit tough in terms of wrestling.

Weak with promos but his character was more of a brawler than talker.

[KaosDarksol]
