7 Sins of Shawn Michaels

#7 Pride – Sabotaged his match against Hulk Hogan

Michaels turned this match into a joke

Shawn Michaels and Hulk Hogan were scheduled to face off through 2005 in three contests where Hulk would win the first one, Shawn the second and the third to ultimately go over the legendary wrestler. Unfortunately, The Hulkster decided on a last minute change of plans.

He faked an injury and said he would only fight one match and that he would be winning it, thank you very much. Michaels – with his pride very much wounded – completely oversold every piece of offence that Hogan delivered during the match to make a mockery out of the whole thing.

I, for one, think this was a sin of Pride that should be appreciated instead of derided.
