Given that name is in use at Kings Dominion, now owned by Cedar Fair, I don't see Six Flags risking using it...and yes, I know of the name's past.

The best Shockwave ever is still kicking at SFoT. ;)

Indeed...and the worst closed for a Superman: Ultimate Flight (instead of Whizzer doing the exiting)...

I actually liked Chicago's Shockwave.  GASM was better, but I didn't headbang on the Illinois version.

How was it better especially if it banged your head? They were almost exactly the same ride. I liked both. Losing Shock Wave was a bigger loss for me at the time though.
