When's the last time you watched King of the Ring 1998 or SummerSlam 1998?? (the two PPV's that the matches you've recommended are from)
I watched both shows last year (mainly out of interest after Bruce & Conrad spoke about them on STWW) and IMO they are both really mediocre matches. Yes; the crowd was super hot compared to today, but the matches weren't that great.
Give me Brock Lesnar against a smaller guy (Styles, Bryan, Finn, etc.) any day over any Ken Shamrock match I've ever watched.
That’s your opinion. I respect that. However I do disagree. Brock vs Finn and AJ were good, not great, prefer his match against Punk tbh. Brock vs Bryan was mediocre, Bryan has had better matches.
