Former WWE and MMA star, Ken Shamrock, was a recent guest on Busted Open Radio on SiriusXM. He had the following to say about Triple H, his current role with the company, and being like Vince McMahon:

"I promise you that Triple H wants to be Vince McMahon, he wants that charisma, he wants that control, and he wants that respect but the only way you going to get the respect by putting yourself a side and pushing other people. Now the only way anyone is going to get pushed is if Triple H has something to do with them, period. That right there is a problem. You can't start an organization when you're actually going to be running it and putting yourself in the limelight. Vince McMahon did not do that. Vince McMahon put over (Hulk)Hogan, McMahon put over Andre the Giant, and he was nowhere to be seen. Right now, you got a guy that's pretty questionable on why he is there and then he makes it even more of a problem by putting himself in the limelight and everybody is going: "See, I told you so.'"

<3 Shamrock.

<3 <3 Shamrock

Fuck Ken Shamrock. Trips is laughing at him with his awesome storyline.

> Ken Shamrock makes actual sense with his comments
> NO, FUCK KEN SHAMROCK. HHH DESERVES TO HOG ALL THE SPOTLIGHTS

Yes, because by creating this epic storyline where the boss is in charge and he's an evil dictator, his only goal is to put himself in the spotlight. That makes so much sense.

Thing is, it was a Daniel Bryan storyline before HHH even entered it

But it makes no sense if HHH doesnt enter it. Plus, HHH is a lot bigger than Bryan is, him being in the storyline only makes it that much better. I know more than a few people that are only watching WWE right now because of Trips being on it.

Thing is, HHH doesnt NEED to be in it to make it "better". When the Summer of Punk was going, it was going well until...HHH entered it...and it turned into a HHH/Kevin Nash feud.

You say that like we didn't see this same feud except better executed with McMahon and Austin.

Oh really? So you'd rather trash this entire program that is happening right now, which, by the way has been an amazing storyline thus far, simply because "I don't want HHH to be in it?" yeah, great logic.

First off, every time I hear a comparison of Austin and Bryan, I instantly take your opinion that less seriously.
Second off, wrestling storylines are recycled. They always will be. As long as it's not a blatant rip off (Aces and 8's with Nexus or Hogan's 'screwjob' of AJ Styles), there is nothing wrong with it.
Third off, are you saying Vince McMahon ruined the McMahon vs Austin storyline by being in it, the same way HHH is ruining the HHH vs Bryan story?

Who said i wanted to trash it? I said HHH doesnt need to be in every main storyline that happens, which he doesnt. HHH wasnt in the storyline where CM Punk was going on about contract demands was he? NOPE.

No but Vince was involved in the start of the Punk storyline. Point being that people love seeing the boss fail and the guy they don't want overcoming the odds.

Only off, I never made any sort of comparisons between Daniel Bryan and Austin or said anything about Vince. You're going way off on a tangent that I didn't even talk about.

Take your arguing elsewhere, I made a sarcastic comment, you're just in your WWE fanboy moment right now.

No, I'm in "WWE has a good storyline but people like Ken Shamrock love to bitch and people agree with them just cause they worship them" mode.

here is the truth. This whole storyline is going to make Daniel Bryan a bigger star than he would be just winning the title at Summerslam. Daniel Bryan has beaten both Orton and Cena, two mega stars in WWE back to back. And I know WWE will do the smart thing and Daniel Bryan will walk out Hell in the cell as WWE champion. Which could lead to a Triple H vs Daniel Bryan at WM.all this is huge for Daniel Bryan and is only making him a much bigger star. after all this you can list Daniel Bryan in the list of the biggest stars of all time.being listed among Andre, Hogan, Savage, Warriors, Austin, Rock, Cena, Triple, Taker, and Punk.

^ Exactly, feuding with HHH is doing wonders for him. Fuck Ken Shamrock.

Isn't that just Ken being butthurt cuz he didn't get the spotlight like Daniel Bryan is getting now?
Or is he just mad due to the fact he's being heavily criticized for being too old to still be active?

*alive.

"The Most Dangerous Man Alive" is butthurt over Daniel Bryan? Yeah, OK.

It's a great storyline, but Triple H does take up a bit more screen time than he needs to. I can see where Shamrock is coming from, but I think the positives outweigh the negatives here.

It's a possibility, given that Shamrock has never won a major title during his WWE career. And D-Bryan, iirc, has won every title but the Intercontinental Championship , even though he's smaller (and apparently "not-so-dangerous") than Shamrock.
So, yeah, I can spot a butthurt.

I agree with the fact that HHH is a spotlight hugger, but in no way he's ruining this storyline.
