Can We Talk About How Dead Inside Shawn Michaels Looks?

Share This Post

Apparently, Shawn Michaels is back in the WWE and reuniting with Triple H to resurrect DX. Speaking of resurrection, The Undertaker and Kane are back, passing out chokeslams as the Brothers of Destruction. The two elderly tag teams are set to headline Crown Jewel, a show that is still kind of up in the air as WWE monitors the situation in Saudi Arabia. But, let’s get back to the four old guys – one of whom can still actually go.

I haven’t watched much regular WWE programming in awhile…actually, the build-up to SummerSlam was the last time I can recall keeping track of what was happening. Even then, it was sparingly.

So, my main question is why is this happening? Do people really want to see Michaels come out of retirement for a match against a busted ass a legend and a city’s mayor? Are people actually excited about it? I’ll tell you one thing – from the look of this photo that WWE shared on Instagram, it certainly looks like Michaels isn’t excited…

…and if you’re not down with THIS, we got TWO WORDS FOR YA! #DX #ShawnMichaels @tripleh

Is HBK being held against his will? I can’t recall the last time I’ve seen such dead eyes on a human. It’s like his soul is screaming, “what have I done?” Meanwhile, Triple H is looking lean, jacked, and ready for action! Could this be photoshopped? Regardless, the only two words HBK has for ya is “help me.”

But, from a guy who considers Michaels one of the best if not the best of all time, I literally could not be less excited for this comeback. I wonder what it took to get him out of retirement. If he wouldn’t come back for a match with A.J. Styles, what the hell made this geriatric tag match so appealing? Did the WWE just back up the money truck to his door? Was this a case of the prince or whoever over there specifically requesting him? Did they threaten his life?

So many questions, but I will say this….writing about this photo is probably the most attention I’m giving this feud. Now, can someone please check on HBK and make sure he’s okay?
