What was that about comebacks that make perfect sense?

Arguably no-one tops Ken Shamrock in that respect. Ol' Kenny boy has been out of the WWE loop since 1999, but he's an odds on favourite to bring some belly-to-belly suplexes and ankle locks (accompanied by screaming, naturally) to the 2024 Rumble. "Get out of my way!", and all that.

Shammers recently inked a deal with WWE, so people expect to see him in the video games soon. A new range of merchandise and induction into the company's Hall Of Fame could be around the corner too. There's no better way to kick all of that off than with a Rumble cameo.

Ken wouldn't need to be out there for long anyway. His banging entrance track and the word "DANGER!" flashing up on the screens would get a mighty pop in Florida come January. Fingers crossed Triple H has been on the phone to Shamrock and this will happen.
