I love how all of you people bash on Shawn yet without him in the mid 90's, the WCW would have most likely won the war. Before Steve Austin and the Rock took off, it was mainly him and Taker keeping them alive even though they were still losing.
DopeAsCopeBrother if shawn joined wcw, and IK scott and kevin would've accommodated him into the nwo regardless if fucking sulk hoegan's ego was in the way. Would've killed to see that happening tbh, but anyways, that would've killed the wwf right fucking there.
Shawn wasn't saving the company, he was the top guy when WCW started consistently beating the WWF. Granted it wasn't totally his fault, the WWF roster was really thin w/ Hall, Nash, & Bret gone for most of '96, but he was definitely not helping the situation. Really, he was the 1st guy I can remember getting the Cena/Roman treatment as the top face. Watch SvS '96, the crowd totally turned on him for Sid.
richard h Shawn was getting the loudest pops out of anyone in the years 95-96. The NYC crowd loved Shawn. What happened was, after he won the title, the little bit of edginess HBK still had as a babyface was taken away because Vince wanted him to be "full on, squeaky clean babyface". The crowds saw right through that. Also, by the time Survivor Series '96 came around, Shawn had been champ for 8 months. The fans wanted something new. Sid was also over like rover. That's why the SS '96 crown turned on him.
As we all know, the only reason why HBK came back in 2002 was his buddy HHH told him “Look… Austin is gone. Rock is gone. We can take over Raw now”. And that’s what happened.
His guaranteed money ended March of 2002. They've lied about his injury. He should've been back in December of 98 or early 99 but wcw let wrestlers play both sides. Vincevlet him stay home and get high for 4 years
As much as I like Shawn he was completely lying throughout this entire interview because everybody knew how he was back in the 90s before he quote-unquote got saved
Even though he stopped drinking and doing drugs according to Gregory helms and Matt hardy and a few other wrestlers he still was a douche behind the scenes which doesn't surprise me at all
Yeah, because it's totally not like other people can't lie and don't have motives of their own. Also, you do realize your keyboard has quotation keys, right?
The Goat? His promos sucked. U cant be the Goat and u losing the Monday Night Wars to WCW and old school wrestlers. Thats not GOAT status. Top 10 of all time? Yes. GOAT no way. HBK and Bret Hart couldnt sell out arenas. That right there shows there not the best of all time. Macho Man is the GOAT. Could wrestle, do promos, and had a great look. Name 1 wrestler who was 10/10 in each of these categories.
@@humblehugh23 stone cold vs hbk with mike tyson feud is what swung the ratings war back to wwf...dx laid the foundation for the attitude era and if you think his promos sucked during the 97 98 dx days then i got two words for ya
Here's something to think about Bret: Scott Hall, Steve Austin, HBK, Piper, Perfect, Bulldog Owen, Benoit, Nash, all said that Bret gave them their best matches they ever had He was 1 of 2 men in the most famous match of all time. Won his first title from flair Headlined 80,000 fans at Wimbley for a title that was not the world title Just something to think of when you hear the counter argument from people like Flair who said he never drew a dime, Bret was such a staple in the 90s wwf it's almost like comparing him to tim duncan, not flashy, not out there scoring 40, not breaking any ankles, but one of the main reasons the spurs have become a dynasty.
Shawn will always be my personal favorite. He was so good that my peanut sized 10yr old brain knew how special he was inside the ring. (I seen Him and Razor have a dark ladder match when I was kid. It was dope af) God bless him 🙏
@@jumpinjohnnyruss lol and you wouldn't be saying that sh*t if you weren't a godless heathen who disliked Shawn.

This is why Bret said when he and Shawn finally buried the hatchet ... that Shawn had been carrying around this ton of guilt ... and in making peace, they both finally let go. Moreover, Shawn had been wanting to come clean on his side of the story for a while, but Vince kept holding him back, wanting to take all the blame. Can't imagine it must have been easy, being a Christian, having a conscience, and still having to cover up. That sort of stuff eats into you.

He didn't threaten him personally... But he was ready who open up a can of whoop ass on Shawn Michaels before Steve Austin, in case Michaels was going to refuse to do the Job. Multiple people have confirmed that, including Undertaker himself.

Shane Helms said Shawn's Born Again gimmick was exactly that, a gimmick. Judging from this interview, I believe him. Shawn doesn't admit to anything. He makes vague references to bad shit he did in the past, but denies every specific accusation. Before trying to turn Bret Hart's anger around on him, with a fun little bullshit comment about all the forgiveness in his heart. If Shawn actually did turn his life around because of religion, good for him. Not the path I would have taken, but I'm not Shawn Michaels. But this whole interview reeks of salvation-for-show.
Nah he's legit born again but he struggles with his demons like all people that is why once in a while you'll see old shawn pop up There's no way he is a faking it Shawn is a very different dude
I was surprised to see the way he talks in this interview, but that's only because I've seen interviews after this where he has been far more humble than this. I'm firmly in Bret Hart's camp, as I am a fan on him, but I will say that Bret pulled no punches in his comment. Nor should he have. But it's got to be hard for anyone to sit there and take that comment. He is barely a year clean in this interview, from the change I've seen when he's spoken in later interviews, there seems to be a definite change in him. I also think, that a lot of stuff people have said about him isn't true, even though he was an asshat.
Stingar Sting is a 12 year old kid who is up past his bedtime. His parents are going to be mad when they find out he is still on his computer. It's a school night son.
Lol Well, America isn't a nation of godless communist heathens who worship their local government official. (At least we didn't used to be) 2)We're a Christian nation who built the greatest country in human history 💪🙏
😂 This is a very stupid comment. I get so annoyed when people say the stupidest things ever while trying to crap on the US. Their are a lot of things to criticize the us for but this comment is extremely stupid.
Point blank: Bret Hart refused to drop the belt, Bret hart was leaving to WCW, Bret Hart didn't do the right thing; thus forcing Vince's hands'.. he's the boss and at the end of the day, as Stone Cold says, Bret got fired.. end of story.
Will Smith Of course they would run with the joke after Hitman left, the momentum worked both ways only WCW couldn't capitalize on the Hitman 'cause Bischoff didn't know what to do with him and Bret would've been grossly out of place in the Attitude Era.
would lansberg shut the fuck up and let his guesst speak,they can barely get a word in when they come onto his show.i was disguisted at how he disrespected cm punk and his ufc career.all lansberg wanted to do was talk about vince in wwe and the day punk left.lansberg should taken cm punks choice to go mma seriously(the justin bieber joke was uncalled for by him.punk was been respectful even despite the stupid questions being asked.punk was an exceptional wrestler and i have huge respect for him more or less telling vince and hunter to go fuck themselves.the only thing punk should never have said was that hewould have thrived in the attitude era to austins face,that was disrespecful,similarily there is no way that cena would have survived wcw back in the early 1990s.orton and lesnar would have,correction lesnar would have survived the powerplant,but he would just be a blue chipper wrestler feuding with goldberg.
Im not talking about in montreal. Im talking about before wm 13 when he was meant to drop the belt he faked an injury and 'lost his smile' cos he didn't want to put anyone over.
Bret Hart should've put him over; not because Shawn is a great guy but because that's how the business went for generations. You lay down when the boss says lay down; or he'll make you lay down...that's how it is in this industry.
+Steven Taylor The show is only 30 minutes long. HBK is the greatest wrestler of all time in my opinion but not a really great interview. He tends to ramble on and on without getting to the point. If Landsberg doesn't do this the interview would go nowhere.
Born Again Shawn: Thank you very much, and thank you for putting me in that class of big names even though i'm probably down the bottom there. 90s Dickhead Shawn: Hell no I wont put anyone over ever might as well just lose my smile and go home
wow its amazing how God can completely transform people when he want to. can anybody notice how Shawn has changed? he would be this humble if it wasn't of being born of Christ. surely Christ lives. i'm still shocked that this was shawn talking there, different tone al togather
@Dust Devil he talked in wrestling mags about making a in ring comeback and training a year out now he pretends God told him to get back in the ring....WACK
Yea. I kind of feel like Bret reminds me if a spoiled whiny brat. Where if he doesn't get his way Everytime he whines about it.. but then again at some point everybody whines when they don't get their way. But I do agree that Bret doesn't want to be responsible for his part.
Im a person who grew up in the church I been around church ppl all my life I can tell when sum1 say they are born again christian and love the lord and when they are real or fake and full of it and I bet all the ppl here the ?ed shawn's faith being real or wrestlers sayin he was fakin and other ppl on other pod cast bet any money they dont go to church or dont even claim to no the lord and be a christian so how u no shawn's faith is fake Ive read where they say he keep changin his story shawn has been sayin the same thing for last 21 yrs. And as a christian myself I no how it when u have faith n god that ur goin to be ok and shawn had faith enough in the lord to go back to wrestling undertaker couldnt stand 1990s shawn and said he wouldn't spit on him if he was on fire but loves the shawn of today said they good friends he even said he could tell he was changed when he first came back and if taker is sayin shawn is a better person u can believe it and the undertaker is a born again christian too. And the lord forgives and i dont believe shawn should still have to keep explaining himself from how he was then
Well, he was in the first ladder match, hell in a cell and iron man match of which is one of the most famous matches in WWF history, he formed DX which was the most powerful group in WWF during their very successful period, won several world championships, when he won the iron man match he made Vince a heel after the iron man match(of which has definitely changed the WWF).
Yeah, he was talking about Bret Hart. Look at the interviews from others who were there at the time including Austin who know it was Bret Hart who didn't submit to authority and give Vince the title when he told him to.
@@danielocean3699 Shawn was extremely wild in the 90’s and really played his “Sexy Boy” image to a T. He was burying alot of wrestlers and made out with almost every chick that came his way before he converted.
The severity of his injury was greatly exaggerated, as he went hypochondriac to dodge getting someone over Also, the kliq stepped on half the wwf roster
For a guy that was pretty into being born again and turning away from his mistakes, he has trouble acknowledging he made the specific mistakes. This guy won't take blame for anything. Losing respect for Shawn.
Some may say the point of salvation through Christ is to turn your life around. You can't have salvation and continue to be the same guy. I'm glad for Shawn and his decision to give his life away in spite of what he's done leading up to that decision.
is the first time in my life that i see this, finally i know why Shawn Michaels never turn heel again because he's a born again christian, i thought he was always a christian person
Everybody came from somewhere and and everybody has a past and when you change your life for the better you shouldn't be reluctant to talk about your conversation and give testimony. To me it would have been OK for him to say he was dirty in the past and did people wrong but God changed his life and he is not that man anymore 😎👌
Some of you speak as if you have all the Intel and know everything that went on behind the scenes. None of us know what we'd do in that spot. Vince is not at fault. HBK is definitely not at fault. Bret was in total control. The decision was made by Vince, and Bret was given more control regarding the passing of the torch than most do, and more than he should have. Bret did it to himself, and even though he's an all time great, he let personal grudges affect his professional position.

Shawn doesn't admit to anything. He makes vague references to bad shit he did in the past, but denies every specific accusation. Before trying to turn Bret Hart's anger around on him, with a fun little bullshit comment about all the forgiveness in his heart.
If Shawn actually did turn his life around because of religion, good for him. Not the path I would have taken, but I'm not Shawn Michaels. But this whole interview reeks of salvation-for-show.
Guys an ass and always will be, well said.
Nah he's legit born again but he struggles with his demons like all people that is why once in a while you'll see old shawn pop up
There's no way he is a faking it Shawn is a very different dude
I was surprised to see the way he talks in this interview, but that's only because I've seen interviews after this where he has been far more humble than this. I'm firmly in Bret Hart's camp, as I am a fan on him, but I will say that Bret pulled no punches in his comment. Nor should he have. But it's got to be hard for anyone to sit there and take that comment. He is barely a year clean in this interview, from the change I've seen when he's spoken in later interviews, there seems to be a definite change in him. I also think, that a lot of stuff people have said about him isn't true, even though he was an asshat.
Why? Because he doesn’t specifically spell it all out for you? He didn’t want to go into his personal life and he shouldn’t have to.
Shawn is the king!!
Miss these interviews 🤣
HBK Knows his Mafiso stuff, that’s awesome comparing Vince to John GOTTI, and himself, to Sammy The BuLL
Shawn was much more honest here than I was expecting. Still a narcissist though. Not sure about the faith, but the modesty seems really insencere.
The best of the best in any industry usually have an ego.
This interviewer is such a mark every time :D
Shawn Michaels the goat
The lord above does AMAZING THINGS all the time. Godbless us all🙏🏻❤
The Lord's a work
Shawn is my all time favorite wrestler, but from 96-98 he was the biggest prick backstage ever. He was also the greatest in ring performer ever.
It is obvious why he has a attitude problems during 1992-1998
Stingar Sting is a 12 year old kid who is up past his bedtime. His parents are going to be mad when they find out he is still on his computer. It's a school night son.
You think he was only a bad person for 2 years?
Shawn found his smile and god.
Shawn Michaels: The Lord said I should wrestle again.
USA: OK, that's normal.
The world: WTF
Because- other countries don't have religion...?
Lol Well, America isn't a nation of godless communist heathens who worship their local government official. (At least we didn't used to be)
2)We're a Christian nation who built the greatest country in human history 💪🙏
hmmmm, most delicious cringe 😃
Yeah, because Vince’s checks ran out
😂 This is a very stupid comment. I get so annoyed when people say the stupidest things ever while trying to crap on the US. Their are a lot of things to criticize the us for but this comment is extremely stupid.
As a born again Christian myself, this reinforces him being my favorite ever. Thank you, Shawn!
What did I start here?! Lol. Cheers Clips! Nice to know I'm not the only realist around here.
With the resurgence in pro wrestling they gotta bring this show back
Point blank: Bret Hart refused to drop the belt, Bret hart was leaving to WCW, Bret Hart didn't do the right thing; thus forcing Vince's hands'.. he's the boss and at the end of the day, as Stone Cold says, Bret got fired.. end of story.
Bret was ready to drop the belt on the next RAW
Tintsa he was out of contract and they couldnt take that chance, he could of left with the belt
Not for nothing, but I read that the whole Montreal Screwjob was Vinnie Mac's brainchild to give the Hitman a bit of momentum going into WCW.
Will Smith Sooner or later people will realize it was a work contrived by Vince to get Bret some momentum going into WCW.
Will Smith Of course they would run with the joke after Hitman left, the momentum worked both ways only WCW couldn't capitalize on the Hitman 'cause Bischoff didn't know what to do with him and Bret would've been grossly out of place in the Attitude Era.
Fucking Landsberg man he tries to destabilise Shawn... but Shawn could care less
Exactly my point.
Shawn used that as an example, don't jump to conclusion when you don't know the full story.
cool interview
would lansberg shut the fuck up and let his guesst speak,they can barely get a word in when they come onto his show.i was disguisted at how he disrespected cm punk and his ufc career.all lansberg wanted to do was talk about vince in wwe and the day punk left.lansberg should taken cm punks choice to go mma seriously(the justin bieber joke was uncalled for by him.punk was been respectful even despite the stupid questions being asked.punk was an exceptional wrestler and i have huge respect for him more or less telling vince and hunter to go fuck themselves.the only thing punk should never have said was that hewould have thrived in the attitude era to austins face,that was disrespecful,similarily there is no way that cena would have survived wcw back in the early 1990s.orton and lesnar would have,correction lesnar would have survived the powerplant,but he would just be a blue chipper wrestler feuding with goldberg.
Im not talking about in montreal. Im talking about before wm 13 when he was meant to drop the belt he faked an injury and 'lost his smile' cos he didn't want to put anyone over.
3:58 You can see that his old self and new self were still battling in this moment.
In this interview we can see the new HBK is more special and Honest than before like 90s.
You're just saying that because you want to praise someone who's acting religious. It's so transparent.
Bret Hart should've put him over; not because Shawn is a great guy but because that's how the business went for generations. You lay down when the boss says lay down; or he'll make you lay down...that's how it is in this industry.
or when you are on your end of your contract and going to the other rival corporation
Yeessssssss
Man, does this guy own "The Keg steak-whoose and baerrrr" or something?
This dude seems to ask questions on his interviews, then asks other questions before they answer, it's annoying.
+Steven Taylor The show is only 30 minutes long. HBK is the greatest wrestler of all time in my opinion but not a really great interview. He tends to ramble on and on without getting to the point. If Landsberg doesn't do this the interview would go nowhere.
You’re so right he does this with everyone. Guy likes to hear himself talk, asks questions and doesn’t want to hear the answers.
No. It is annoying. But is the right way to ask questions to someone who don't want to answer.
You don't Know shit about journalism
Facts
Born Again Shawn: Thank you very much, and thank you for putting me in that class of big names even though i'm probably down the bottom there.
90s Dickhead Shawn: Hell no I wont put anyone over ever might as well just lose my smile and go home
He’d also be like “I’m the icon of this sport those nimrods can’t lace up my boots”.
@@stevanaldape3424 And he'd be right.
@@VideoHostSiteok kyle 😂🤡
I don't remember him admitting he knew on this show. I remember him admitting it on Raw in 2010, I think.
wow its amazing how God can completely transform people when he want to. can anybody notice how Shawn has changed? he would be this humble if it wasn't of being born of Christ. surely Christ lives. i'm still shocked that this was shawn talking there, different tone al togather
Its a act lol he is douche bag. He lying the whole interview.
@Dust Devil he talked in wrestling mags about making a in ring comeback and training a year out now he pretends God told him to get back in the ring....WACK
Ya, right !
What a bunch of horse shit !
The feud between Bret & Shawn was a 2 way street, Bret always seems to forget that.
Yea. I kind of feel like Bret reminds me if a spoiled whiny brat. Where if he doesn't get his way Everytime he whines about it.. but then again at some point everybody whines when they don't get their way. But I do agree that Bret doesn't want to be responsible for his part.
Ur a class act,did what ur were told 2 do,LET IT B
One guy would like to see on off the record is Jim Cornette
Please no that guy talk in circles very articulate but just babbles on and on
I’m surprised to hear that even though this is one big soap opera these guys didn’t want to go along with the bosses script.
Im a person who grew up in the church I been around church ppl all my life I can tell when sum1 say they are born again christian and love the lord and when they are real or fake and full of it and I bet all the ppl here the ?ed shawn's faith being real or wrestlers sayin he was fakin and other ppl on other pod cast bet any money they dont go to church or dont even claim to no the lord and be a christian so how u no shawn's faith is fake Ive read where they say he keep changin his story shawn has been sayin the same thing for last 21 yrs. And as a christian myself I no how it when u have faith n god that ur goin to be ok and shawn had faith enough in the lord to go back to wrestling undertaker couldnt stand 1990s shawn and said he wouldn't spit on him if he was on fire but loves the shawn of today said they good friends he even said he could tell he was changed when he first came back and if taker is sayin shawn is a better person u can believe it and the undertaker is a born again christian too. And the lord forgives and i dont believe shawn should still have to keep explaining himself from how he was then
VINCE SCREWED BRET! Plain and simple thats why he got spit on
Kyndel McKnight yes but Vince moved on and the attitude era was born and Bret became just a shell of himself in WCW
Dont hate on Shawn
Well, he was in the first ladder match, hell in a cell and iron man match of which is one of the most famous matches in WWF history, he formed DX which was the most powerful group in WWF during their very successful period, won several world championships, when he won the iron man match he made Vince a heel after the iron man match(of which has definitely changed the WWF).
The first ladder match in WWE history was Shawn Michaels - Bret Hart. I’m thinking sometime in 1992
How did you get to the video?
David Lee Roth of the WWE
Shawn is fucking nuts!
I think Shawn meant to quote Joshua 1 5-6.
Yeah, he was talking about Bret Hart. Look at the interviews from others who were there at the time including Austin who know it was Bret Hart who didn't submit to authority and give Vince the title when he told him to.
Shawn is right, unforgiveness is not healthy.
Shawn Michael's
Lol, 20:55-21:11 ''... He still looks angry and that isn't healthy.'' AWESOME quote by Shawn.
He was great after 2002, but he was way more entertaining in the late 90s
What was the difference?
@@danielocean3699 Shawn was extremely wild in the 90’s and really played his “Sexy Boy” image to a T. He was burying alot of wrestlers and made out with almost every chick that came his way before he converted.
A - I hope Shawn continues to let the Lord do amazing things in his life.
B - Nice hair cut, Bret. :)
The severity of his injury was greatly exaggerated, as he went hypochondriac to dodge getting someone over
Also, the kliq stepped on half the wwf roster
Youre still a nobody
For a guy that was pretty into being born again and turning away from his mistakes, he has trouble acknowledging he made the specific mistakes. This guy won't take blame for anything. Losing respect for Shawn.
What a great guy
Bottom line: Too much money at stake to be completely truthful.
14:13 for just a few seconds you can see the old HBK talking as he says “the same guy” in reference to Bret Hart
I lost my smile.
I was surprised to here that Nash blew a quad
Some may say the point of salvation through Christ is to turn your life around. You can't have salvation and continue to be the same guy. I'm glad for Shawn and his decision to give his life away in spite of what he's done leading up to that decision.
I love this show but I hate how they have to cut every segment short to go to commercial. He cuts off Shawn in every segment
is the first time in my life that i see this, finally i know why Shawn Michaels never turn heel again because he's a born again christian, i thought he was always a christian person
Everybody came from somewhere and and everybody has a past and when you change your life for the better you shouldn't be reluctant to talk about your conversation and give testimony. To me it would have been OK for him to say he was dirty in the past and did people wrong but God changed his life and he is not that man anymore 😎👌
HBK brings up his own nametag 6:51
Truthfully regardless of your belief(Or lack thereof) it's just speculation in terms of a Deity(s). But I couldn't agree more with your statement.
Comparing 97-98 shawn to shawn nowadays is like comparing santa claus to the green giant the difference is massive in terms of personality.
Some of you speak as if you have all the Intel and know everything that went on behind the scenes. None of us know what we'd do in that spot. Vince is not at fault. HBK is definitely not at fault. Bret was in total control. The decision was made by Vince, and Bret was given more control regarding the passing of the torch than most do, and more than he should have. Bret did it to himself, and even though he's an all time great, he let personal grudges affect his professional position.
Yup
