IMPACT Wrestling Uses WWE Footage On TV For Ken Shamrock Hall Of Fame Video
The times they are a changing.
Once Monday night rivals involved in a war for talent, WWE and IMPACT Wrestling are far from that now. Tuesday night saw a rare instance where WWE footage ran on IMPACT TV.
The clips aired during the announcement video of Ken Shamrock’s Hall of Fame induction. Included clips were Shamrock as a member of the Corporation, beating members of D-Generation X, and winning King of the Ring by submitting The Rock. ‘
You can see a tweet with the video below.
