Michael "PS" Hayes is a wrestling legend. The leader of The Fabulous Freebirds, Hayes has worked behind-the-scenes for World Wrestling Entertainment since 1999. He is a senior producer for WWE and the Vice President of Creative Writing & Booking.
The former Dok Hendrix and Robert Rood produced both of Roman Reigns' matches at WrestleMania 40. They also produced The Bloodline's promo from the go-home RAW and the Seth Rollins vs. Solo Sikoa main event.
Hayes took to X today to express gratitude to the fans and the superstars who performed and those who did not.
"What a WRESTLEMANIA!!! First, I thank all the Talent that performed to make it the GREATEST WRESTLEMANIA EVER!! I thank the Talent's [sic] that didn't perform but put over those Talents that did, to help their respective storylines!! Most importantly, to all of YOU!! Your the BEST!!" Michael Hayes wrote.
