UFC Hall of Famer and former WWE Intercontinental and Tag Team Champion Ken Shamrock was recently interviewed by Andy Malnoske of Wrestling Inc. Shamrock looked back on his MMA and wrestling careers in the early 1990s.
During the interview, Shamrock was questioned about Kurt Angle using the ankle lock, which Shamrock used as a finisher during his WWE career.
Shamrock revealed that he wanted a rivalry between him and Angle, but it never came to fruition.
"I have tried to toss that little seed out there for a while [a match between him and Angle]. Kurt has always been that guy to have wanted to create the opportunity when he was wrestling, but for whatever reason it never happened," he said. "A guy who actually brought it in versus a guy who brought it in and thought he made it better, so we can find out who the real submission artist is."
