Could Shawn Michaels be returning to the ring?
Shawn Michaels is one of the all-time greats of the wrestling industry, and, when he retired following his loss to The Undertaker at WrestleMania 26, many assumed that would be that for ‘The Heartbreak Kid’ and his iconic career. However, the 59-year-old returned to the ring at Crown Jewel 2018 when he teamed up with Triple H to battle The Brothers of Destruction, and now it appears as if he might be thinking of stepping between the ropes at least once more.
During a Q and A session hosted by Monopoly Events, JDC (known as Fandango in WWE) revealed he’s heard Shawn Michaels say he’s got one or two more matches left in him.
“You know who I talked to last week who said he’s got one or two matches left in him? Shawn Michaels. He’s the reason why I got into the business so, honestly, it’d probably never happen but that would be my dream match with Shawn.”
–JDC
Michaels began working as a writer and producer for NXT in 2018 and went on to assume the running of the developmental brand in 2021, but the Hall of Famer did get physical when he delivered a Sweet Chin Music to Kevin Owens at January 25’s Saturday Night’s Main Event.
While it’s unlikely Michaels will return to the ring, you can truly never say never in wrestling.
As always, we’ll aim to provide any further updates on Shawn Michaels’ in-ring future as soon as we hear more.
