To update everyone on the Ken Shamrock / WWE situation, sources within the WWE have confirmed to Fightsport.com that Shamrock would return to the WWE to take on Kurt Angle although there is no set timeline on when this would happen as of this report.

As previously reported, the match would be touted as a battle of leglock experts. The one thing that might keep this from coming to fruition is the fact that Shamrock is weighing a few different offers, however the fact that the bout would most likely happen at Wrestlemania XX is a big selling point.

UFC president Dana White also announced that Ken Shamrock would be participating in the UFC in June, possibly against 'Tank' Abbott.

There were several WWE personalities sitting in the first level of the crowd taking in all the action during the Royal Rumble but not appearing on camera. Those people included Orlando Jordan, Harvey Whippleman, The Brooklyn Brawler, and Shane McMahon.
