Ken Shamrock, to WWE HOF?

Ken Shamrock, what an entrance to WWF in 1997, the special enforcer for Hart/Austin I Quit at Wrestlemania, who then moved into a feud with Vader in the following weeks. I firmly believe Shamrock is worthy of the WWE HOF if for only one reason. Tap Out. Before Shamrock submissions ended with the wrestler shaking his head "YES RING THE BELL!" or actually saying "I Quit", that was the idea at least. Shamrock introduced the UFC and Martial Arts world's "Tap Out" to get out of a tight hold in 1997. Though WWF at the time did not acknowledge this change, by the end of the summer of 97, most submission victories were due to Tap Out, notable exception Bret/Shawn at SS 97.
