Shawn Michaels is arguably one of the greatest pro wrestlers to ever grace the ring. Ever since his retirement from in-ring action, the Heart Break Kid has taken up a different role with the company.
HBK is one of the first people to see the new talent in action after being a coach in the WWE Performance Center. The two-time Royal Rumble winner had a brief stint back in the ring when he teamed up with Triple H to face the Brothers Of Destruction in the Crown Jewel event.
Michaels recently spoke with VultreHound during WWE’s launch of the new Performance Center in the United Kingdom. During the talk, he revealed the advice he passes on to the younger talent that prepares to take their first steps in the world of pro wrestling. He said:
“People say all this nice stuff about me, I’m a legend and an icon and all this, I was just a dude out there living my dream and a lot of it was just really me going out there, and somehow that seemed to make a difference. So don’t be afraid to give a little or a lot of yourself out there because fans seem to notice the difference when someone’s yanking your chain or when someone’s sincerely going out there and giving their all for you. So don’t be afraid to forego the show part and show them who you really are, because, as I said, fans seem to notice, which I think is cool.”
