It is an #honor and one of my greatest #accomplishments to be in the history books as the first #IMPACT World Champion!
Sorry to my former #tagteam partner and #legend @REALSteamboat but sometimes emotions take over when the #worldtitle is on the line!

You'll make me famous with the passing attitude era and I'll make you relevant in today's wrestling world

What? You think Mr. Impact Wrestling is just going to show up and gift you an instant sellout?
Sorry Ken, not happening….. I’m too busy being the hottest star in pro wrestling.
But hey, best of luck with your little show….. and your attempts to stay relevant ? https://t.co/WKOucumb26— MOOSE (@TheMooseNation) August 22, 2019
Hottest star in Pro Wrestling? @TheMooseNation I speak for everyone when I tell you, that you are a Nasal Strip away & short 75% of the talent, from being the next Ahmed Johnson. But I’ll show you what will happen if you keep running your mouth… https://t.co/Gh8a4DO57C pic.twitter.com/QydvnCcexV

WWF Legend The Rock went on to put over Shamrock ahead of his return and you can check it out below:
I’ll co-sign that. @ShamrockKen helped build “The Rock” character. Huge #AttitudeEra influence. We tore the houses down together. I’ll always be grateful and respectful. He’s a fucking machine. They don’t make em like that anymore. Thanks for the house brother Ken
