#3 Randy Orton wants Ken Shamrock in the Hall of Fame

While the WWE generally announces its Hall of Fame inductees right around WrestleMania, the company has already announced that nWo and Batista will be part of the HOF ceremony next year.

When the news of WWE announcing the inductees spread, #shamrock4HOF started trending on Twitter. This movement was supported by none other than the 13-time World Champion Randy Orton who tweeted the same on multiple occasions, including in response to WWE itself.

Ken Shamrock is not just a legend in the MMA world but was also one of the biggest names during WWE's attitude era. It is rather surprising that WWE does not acknowledge Shamrock's role during his stint with the company, especially since The Rock also stated how much he respects The Baddest Man on multiple occasions.

Ken Shamrock is currently a part of the Impact Wrestling roster and has held the World Championship in the past. Even though Shamrock may be associated with Impact, it would be a great moment for fans if WWE honors him by inducting him into the HOF class of 2020.
