Whether he was in there with Austin, Taker, Kane, HBK, Rock, or whoever I could never see Shamrock as an underdog. I actually thought dude was going to beat Taker at Backlash 99.
It kind of reminds me of how I feel whenever I watch Ishii wrestle, Them mofos are just legit.

Facts, Took me days to download them damn playboy pictures back in the day
shyt, even the Raw Magazine covers back then were
Sucks the wrestling world doesnt give a fukk about Shamrock these days, seems like it to me
"
probably could bring back this match for a Samoa Joe feud
The WWE did a great job of handling Shamrock in the sense that most of his losses/low points were a direct result of fukkery or his own loss of focus due to losing his temper.
He was literally his own worst enemy.
Also, though he lost, he was handing Taker his ass in a fashion rarely seen in that Backlash match.

This shyt feel like a real fight 
Yeah, but him and Kimbo had the whole world watching
If a dude like Jack Swagger had charisma he would’ve been eating from this match type too years back

this was a cool gimmick match at the time. it wouldn't work today because the UFC/MMA is so big now, but back then in 1998 it was a very small niche sport that was only seen on PPV. that's why this worked.
