The match was introduced as Ken Shamrock's "speciality" bout, and the Lion's Den was first introduced as a way for Owen Hart to step into Shamrock's turf after Shamrock had competed in the Hart Dungeon match at WWF Fully Loaded in 1998. The Lion'd Den had similar characteristics to a UFC octagon, but really, thats where the similarities ended. When Shamrock left the WWF, the unique Lion's Den matches left with him.. and the closest the WWE has ever came to producing these style of matches again was with their "Fight Pit" bouts. This video takes a look at every WWF Lions Den match that took place. The first was Owen Hart vs Ken Shamrock at SummerSlam 1998, the second (and most obscure) took place on Sunday Night Heat when Steve Blackman faced Owen Hart, the third was a very short Vince McMahon vs Ken Shamrock encounter on Raw is War, and the final Lion's Den match featured Ken Shamrock taking on Steve Blackman at SummerSlam 1999. 00:00 - Shamrock, UFC and Octagons 02:39 - The Dungeon Match 07:03 - The first Lion's Den match 10:38 - Lion's Den II on Sunday Night Heat 13:50 - McMahon vs Shamrock 15:12 - The Final Lion's Den match 18:36 - NXT's Fight Pit #WWE #Wrestling #WWF
