    I just watched Shawn Michaels vs Undertaker from Ground Zero 1997. Just before the Hell in a Cell match. He was so great. So many little moments and things he did during the match that you could miss on first viewing.
    Starting with his pyro not going off on time during his ring entrance, to which he didn't look best pleased and let it be known.

    Hi to Shawn Michaels! Since 1996, during my high school days, I have been a fan of Heart Break Kid! And I got a crush on him at that time. And now year 2015, after 12 years, I remembered him. I hope, his book will go forth here in the Philippines, so I could buy! And I wish, I could see him personally! yipee! GOD bless you Mr.Westemania and to your loving family! You are the BEST wrestler ever! The show stopper... the icon... :* 3>

    I think it may have been Shawn's faith that helped him and Bret Hart make amends. It was a two way street still as Bret wasn't the most favorable person either.

      @evelinamays 9 років тому +6

      Donald Davis II that's his/her opinion...and i happen to agree. Who would you consider the GOAT though?
      Ric Flair? No, he was awesome but all his matches were the same. You seen one Flair match you seen them all.
      Undertaker? Heck no his gimmick was more over them him. And i respsct the hell out of Taker. But he's not the greatest.
      Austin? No, he was over as hell though.
      Hulk Hogan? Popularity wise? Maybe. In ring wise? Hell no.
      Hbk had it all, entertaining and he put on 5 star matches 9 times outta 10, especially when it was on a ppv. Wrestlemania especially. And his mic skills are pretty underrated, too.

    • @thedarkstranger963
      @thedarkstranger963 9 років тому

      Evelina Mays On the live mic, in my opinion, the Rock stands heads and shoulders above them all. Cuttin' a promo goes to the Rock as well. I wonder if the opponents of HBK were instructed to "tone it down a bit" to make Shawn Michaels "shine" a little more. Also, every time you turn around, you hear a McMahon flunky saying "how great Shawn Michaels is in the ring". That statement in itself is going to influence the way an audience thinks. How did Shawn Michaels outperform Eddie Guerrero? RVD? Rey Mysterio? Let's not forget the Macho Man Randy Savage.....

    Top 5 Greatest Wrestlers of all time in my opinion not in order:
    1) Undertaker
    2) Shawn Michaels
    3) HHH
    4) Steve Austin
    5) The Rock
    They are probably the highest financial draws of all time in the WWE also, not to mention they're all from the same era " The Additude Era" which is crazy.

      @gusyyy23 9 років тому +4

      Actually Steve Austin and Hulk Hogan were WWE´s biggest moneymakers with Hogan beeing #1 by far. Then you gotta rank Cena just because he carried the company since 2005 now.

    • @Tain950
      @Tain950 9 років тому +5

    Okay, Shawn saying that he didn't know it was going to end.. smacks of a lie. Either he lied when he said he was in the room when the decision was made... Or he lied here. (If you wish to hear Shawn's other words.. listen to JR's podcast.)

    • @vincentprice9156
      @vincentprice9156 9 років тому

      ***** Brock could beat most if not all of their asses in real life..He's a legit fighter,Anybody but Brock winning wouldn't have made sense..but I think thats all the more reason they should have been kept away from each other.Brock is still a beast with or without that win..I think they should have let Taker ride off undefeated
      He should have faced and beat Cena At WM 30
      Sting at WM 31 and then Bray Wyatt At WM 32
      It should have just been Taker vs Big Show back at WM 19 instead of Show and Prince Albert
      and I don't understand why the hell they never had Undertaker face The Rock,Hogan or Steve Austin out of all those years at WM is crazy to me

    • @GregLionProductions
      @GregLionProductions 9 років тому +1

      Gil Edwards I agree. Id have kept the streak unbroken. it would have been great to see sting DEBUT with taker. You wouldnt need all the nwo and dx drama to get the finish over, people would be going nuts. as to the streak for me, if it were sting or not id never book a clean wm pin on taker. Id sooner do something more "dramatic". Remember when taker lost in the casket match and he rose above the titan tron? I think its a better send off and maintains the mystique of the character.

    • @vincentprice9156
      @vincentprice9156 9 років тому

      Greg Lion I agree lookin back the Sting vs Triple H finish with hhh goin over would have been downright rotten without the Dx and Nwo cloaking it over a bit along with the dirty win.That Taker vs Sting @WM 30 or 31 would have been epic,though we may get an amazing match @WM 32..its in Texas which is the home of Taker and Sting,Both there careers are coming to an end at around the same time..I could see a double retirement match Sting Vs Taker @WM 32 ..Perfect time an place and would definitely both their ages alot less of a factor because they are both superstars in their 50's..If so I would love to see Taker's last match be in his old attire with either the gray or purple gloves..Their is an interview with Percy Pringle (Paul Bearer) and Cornette on here where Percy talks about how he thinks thats the look Taker will have his last match in..I'de love it but who knows

  • @MrBeckenhimself
    @MrBeckenhimself 9 років тому +15

    I think it's a bit ironic that people actually believe Mcmahon has some sort of power over everyone's opinion.
    Kurt Angle said Shawn was the best. Triple H said it. Jeff Hardy said it.
    How many more names do you guys need? I mean honestly.
    Angle is not with WWE anymore neither is Jeff and both of them still say Shawn was the best they were in the ring with.
    Even Bret Hart admits though he probably still has mixed feelings for Shawn at best,
    that Shawn was phenomenal. Jim Cornette said he was the best in that ring.
    All of their statements about Shawn can be found here on youtube.
    Shawn was the best in the ring. On the mic? No.
    But in that ring he was on a different level. Sure Eddie was also fantastic as was Rey before his knees gave out on him.
    Mcmahon's opinion is like everyone elses opinion, every one is not magicially going to agree with Vince.
    That's the reality of it. Scott Hall another name who claims HBK was the best. Stone Cold another.
    Look at his average ratings in his matches and you'll see. They speak for themselves.
    Not to mention HBK trains Daniel Bryan who by many is considered one of the best,
    if not the best in WWE as of right now. That says something.
    In that ring Shawn was the greatest. Love him or hate him.

      MrBeckenhimself Trust me Bret hart would never say HBK was the best. Kurt Angle said the wrestler he would want to wrestle most is bret hart. All them guys say HBK is the best mostly on WWE dvd's lol, it's propaganda bullshit. You're being gullible, i know 10 wrestlers on the top of my head who are better then HBK, Kurt and bret excluded.

    • @MrBeckenhimself
      @MrBeckenhimself 9 років тому +1

      Actually Kurt said it BOTH times after he left WWE he is being interviewed and says the best wrestler he was in the ring with was Shawn. Your exuses are invalid.

    • @MrBeckenhimself
      @MrBeckenhimself 9 років тому

      Bret never said Shawn was the best but he has said many many times that in the ring Shawn was great it was just outside the ring he couldn't stand him.

    3 greatest wrestlers period in order & why are
    Hulk Hogan why because he put all the major stars including guys like Sting on the map he made them all what they are today with a lil help from Andre & Ric Flair
    Sting why the guy revolutionized a entire era if he had joined the wwf guys like Shawn Stone Cold & Taker would all be midcarders hell The Rock & Triple H would be lucky to be jobbers at best the business.
    The Rock why because he's the man who entertain you without being in the ring he just spit a promo about anyone & the entire night was golden nobody else could that not to mention he had what all these guys today lack ATTITUDE.

    I always found shawn annoying and whiny, thats just the way i always felt about him. when he came on the the screen i lost intrest and changed channels, wouldnt even watch to see him get beat up. what little ive seen of his matches didnt impress at all, i think to be honest the only full matches i remember ive seen are razor ladder match, the iron man and the screwjob and i watched those for razor and bret, who i thought drew for those matches anyway. Hated his crap annoying dx character, rdjj and babg were the ones i watced in dx. Ive followed wrestling and different promotions for years and the fact that all of these fans think of him as the goat is so incomprehensible to me i cant fathom it, i could think of numerous guys that were far better performers in ring and on the mic, as well as much better human beings then hbk.
