Ken Shamrock says he is currently under a WWE Legends contract
Former WWE and UFC star Ken Shamrock did an interview with Chris Van Vliet and here are the highlights courtesy of ChrisVanVliet.com…
On his relationship with WWE:
“I’ve had a relationship with them forever, even since when I went away, we did a legends contract, so I’ve always been a part of them. It’s one of those things where I think I spent enough time there and did enough there that I feel like I’m a part of that family forever.”
Are you under a legends contract right now?
“I am. Yes.”
On the recent T-shirts appearing on WWE Shop:
“They’re constantly, always putting stuff out, so it’s been a good thing. Like I said, I feel like, you know, I spent enough time there and did enough things to where I feel like family.”
On not being in the WWE Hall of Fame:
“That’s a great question and I get asked that a lot, which I guess is a good thing, right? I probably think I’m in four or five different ones, wrestling included. But no, when people ask that, it’s not really something that I think about a lot. I enjoyed my time in wrestling. I thought while I was there it was enjoyable. I mean, I went into it because it was an opportunity for me because the MMA was struggling and I wasn’t able to make the money I needed to support my family, so I had to make a decision. So I made that decision to go into wrestling, not knowing how that would turn out. Obviously, it was risky, but I did it. And fortunately for me, I fell in love with it. It was a great opportunity for me, and I enjoyed, all the moments that I had there. A lot of them with The Rock, and a lot of people think it’s crazy, but I enjoyed the chair shot.”
On if a Hall of Fame induction could happen:
“Obviously any athlete that goes through a career and has made an impact wants to be recognized, and I do want to be recognized. But I don’t think of it until it’s brought up, right? It’s not something that I dwell on because I felt like everything that I’ve done in my life, I’ve been blessed to have been in those moments. What comes after that is just icing on the cake. And if that happens it’s going to be a true thrill. But like I said, it’s not something that I lose sleep over. I’ve really enjoyed my journey and very happy with the way my life has turned out.”
