He is a former World Heavyweight Champion and one of the most brilliant and dedicated minds in the business. In his past he has had epic encounters with the likes of Raven and achieved great success. Today though, Shane has moved beyond the in-ring physicality and is looking to put his wealth of wrestling knowledge to use. In a manner of trying to give back to a sport that has given him so much, Douglas looks to mentor those on the cusp of greatness, who just need that bit of spark or motivation to reach the very peak of the industry. Shane attempted in vain to instill his drive and initiative in the tandem known as The Naturals. And while that experiment did not prove successful in the eyes of Shane Douglas, there is no doubt that Shane will find a new experiment to embark on and lead to the promise land. |
