During a recent edition of his Something To Wrestle podcast, Bruce Prichard discussed whether Ken Shamrock had the potential to become WWE Champion after winning the King Of The Ring tournament in 1998.
According to Prichard, Shamrock had what it takes to carry the WWE Championship, but again, the main event scene was stacked at the time and not everyone could become the WWE Champion. Prichard said,
“I think yeah, you definitely could have. Absolutely, I think that Ken would’ve been in that conversation. But again, it was very, very crowded at the top, very competitive, and not everybody can be there at the same time.”
Shamrock ultimately left WWE in September 1999. He has since had runs in TNA/Impact Wrestling.
