10 Wrestling Storylines Stars REFUSED To Do
6. Ken Shamrock Turned Down Multiple Ideas Because Of His Family
MMA badass Ken Shamrock made quite an impact in the world of sports entertainment early on.
However, after colliding with the likes of Vader and Bret Hart, WWE apparently had plans for the UFC legend that the violent man himself didn't feel comfortable getting involved with.
As Shamrock would note to Steve Fall on the Ten Count podcast (via Wrestling Inc), the company wanted him to lock up with Chyna at one point. But with Shamrock making a point of teaching his kids "you don't hit girls" and knowing they were living in a world where children believed what they saw on the screen was real, he didn't want any part in a fight with 'The Ninth Wonder of the World.'
The WWE ideas Ken wasn't at all interested in didn't stop there, though.
He also explained how he was once pitched an incest angle involving himself and Alicia Webb, who was playing his on-screen sibling Ryan at the time. And while a single, kid-less, and far less famous Shamrock may have considered that outrageous plan, at that stage in his life, a WWE incest storyline "just wasn't for (him.)"
Beating the crap out of 'Mastodons' and 'Great Ones' in front of the sprogs, though? That was absolutely A-OK.
