2. Shawn Michaels Talks About How His One Night Return Turned Into Another 8 Years In WWE
During a recent interview with Crave Online, WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels was asked about his one night return in 2002 turning into another 8 years in the WWE. Below is the conversation:
Crave Online: You mentioned in your testimony that after being born again, you returned to WWE as a “one-off” but ended up staying all the way to 2010. Why was it so important for you to go back to further your career?
Shawn Michaels: “It wasn’t my intention like you said. It was wonderful but you say ‘what’s next?’
Honestly, without sounding too spiritual, when I talk about it now it affects a lot of people negatively because they think it’s all about my faith but a lot of that was still in me anyways. So I just felt like I could do it but then you really spent a lot of time thinking ‘What is next?’ You ask people for advice and then all of a sudden, it comes to the basic things of what are you good at? In the church, we say ‘What are your gifts?’
For me, regardless of how you look at it, I’ve done one thing since I was 19 years old and before that, I worked at Mr. Gatti’s and Chuck E. Cheese [laughs] so it was between the two. I don’t know if the pizza thing was my gift [laughs] and the one thing I did longer was wrestling. It came natural.”
