• Former WWE Wrestler Takes A Dig At Shawn Michaels For Not Selling Randy Orton’s Punt Kick On RAW
In the main event segment of last night’s RAW, two time WWE Hall Of Famer Shawn Michaels confronted Randy Orton for attacking his friend, Ric Flair, last week.
The Legend Killer got angry and RKOed Michaels and hit him in the head with a Punt Kick. WWE Champion Drew McIntyre came out and fought off Orton. McIntyre then checked on HBK, while Orton entered the ring again to RKO McIntyre.
Many fans commented on Michaels’ selling of the Punt Kick and said that it wasn’t the best selling he’s ever done. Some went on to say that he no sold the Punt Kick.
Former WWE wrestler Lio Rush took to Twitter to express his opinion over the angle and said that HBK from 2008 would’ve sold this a lot better.
“2008 Shawn would have sold this punt until next month..”
