Shawn Michaels
Shawn Michaels, a Hall of Famer, a current ambassador and trainer of WWE since 2010. He retired from pro-wrestling after losing a match against the Undertaker at Wrestlemania 26.
One more match?
While in London with Triple H for the WWE upcoming UK Title tournament, Sky Sports asked the Showstopper about a possible “one more” match; this is what he replied:
“I’ve been retired for eight years now and when it got to the five-year mark I thought people would start asking me but they just kind of stopped,”
“I think it’s one of those that you would never say never about and if it was just for a one-off then it’s something that I would take a look at. It would have to be done the right way and just for one match rather than something that ran for longer. It could be possible but people would have to accept they wouldn’t be getting the Showstopper, Mr.WrestleMania, and that I’m 52 years old now.”
He mentioned just doing an easy tag team match; maybe with his longtime tag partner Triple H (reuniting the DX). But also thinks about going for a singles match with some of his favorite active Superstars; mostly from Smackdown Live and NXT Brand.
“If it was the Shawn Michaels of 10 years ago I would love to have gotten in the ring with so many of the guys that are competing today. AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan would be good, and then there are the guys in NXT too. Someone like a Johnny Gargano would be fantastic. But for a one-off match now; I’d need it to be a tag-team match where Hunter (Triple H) and I can just do a few crotch chops and have some fun.”
Shawn Michaels’ Opponent – TSJ Writer’s View:
If Mr. Wrestlemania is to return for one more match; I don’t think Daniel Bryan or Aj Styles are the best superstars to pass the torch to. Even though those are the dream matches everyone wants to see. But let’s face it; Styles is also going to retire in two to three years time, and Bryan is wrestling on a borrowed time. I personally think Adam Cole is the best to face the Showstopper at Wrestlemania. Who do you think should face Mr. Wrestlemania if he decides for one more match?
