He has had the following names/nicknames of ‘Mr. Wrestling’ Vince Torelli, ‘One Punch’ Ken Shamrock, Vince Torelli, Wayne Shamrock and The Worlds Most Dangerous Man.

He began his pro wrestling training when he enrolled into the “Bob Sawyers School of Pro Wrestling” in 1988. He was trained by Bob Sawyer, ‘Mad Dog’ Buzz Sawyer (Bruce Woyan) and Nelson Royal.

He adopted the nickname of ‘Mr. Wrestling’ & began competing in Japan in the UWF (Universal Wrestling Federation) as well as in PWFG (Pro Wrestling Fujiwara Gumi) & PHW (Pancrase Hybrid Wrestling) later shortened to Pancrase.

On 24 February 1997 he signed a 3-year, 3 Million-dollar contract to wrestle in the WWF. His debut in the WWF was as a special guest referee under the name of Ken Shamrock with the nickname of "The World's Most Dangerous Man".
