    What do you think were Shawn Michaels intentions in that match with Hogan at SummerSlam? Let us know in the comments below!

    • @jhmoxl
      @jhmoxl Před měsícem +15

      i tend to believe Shawn. I think he was working Hogan much like Terry Funk did. Hogan is a super hero character and so you go over the top and it just weird out of context when clipped and without seeing how Shawn worked as a heel for the last decade of his career. I actually thought Shawn laid out a pretty good match that night that built to a finish where it felt like Shawn is absolutely screwing Hogan out of this one tonight, and then nope Hulk is just too good.

    • @ad206
      @ad206 Před měsícem +13

      His intentions were to do what they wanted him to do. This match has become such an internet myth over the years. The match was no different than any Mr. Perfect match (he even did Mr. Perfect's turnbuckle spot), Sgt Slaughter match, anything Hogan did in the late '80s, early '90s.

      He was shittin on Hogan no matter what he says and THAT’S OK. It was like cartoon Rambo lol! Rambo didn’t want to kill people, but he was the best at it. HBK was the best at being the biggest ass that ever lived and he proved that night that he will always have that ability.

      I was just going to mention this, that it looks like dude has bigger arms here in retirement than he did when he was active! Shawn was never anything remotely close to a "body guy"; to the contrary he is always mentioned as the very first name, the epitome of the much smaller, more athletic types that was turned to in the wake of the steroid scandal and defined the most beloved era of wrestling ever. Perhaps, indeed, part of his holding up so well is the very fact that he probably took it easy on the PEDs when younger in bodybuilding you see this often that these are the guys who can still look good and don't face health crises when older. This isn't a current video but he still looks quite good today. Especially for a guy who'd gone balls to the wall with something as generally, multiple-ways unhealthy as pro wrestling.

    damn, seeing Shawn's muscles, specifically his shoulder repeatedly flexing as he moves his arm, he keeps his fitness up even when retired. make me think that as a NXT trainer he's using a more hands on approach and physically showing the guys a thing or two. its just interesting to see considering between his wwe runs he ran a wrestling school. Brian Danielson even trained under him, but Danielson has always cited William regal as his biggest mentor. back then it gave the impression amongst fans that shawn wasn't that great a teacher (this was perpetuated by whatculture in one of their many lists, not my personal opinion). I just like to view it as more character growth for shawn and he's now connecting with people more than in the 2000's. wish jim cornette would give him a second chance, I think shawns earned it.

    Hogan was long past his in-ring date. Michaels, the character, acted as a heel to try and bring out the best of Hogan, the character. Get him fired up, get him passionate enough to have a match that Michaels (the character) would know was facing Hogan at his best possible, and could he beat that guy. It's a decent story, for WWE. He did oversell, trying to make Hogan's offense look good, because Hogan isn't in 2005what he was in 1985, or even 95. Hogan's matches always looked ridiculous to NWA fans like me, anyway.

The shoulder block that sent him flying out of the ring and the big boot that made him fall down, get back up, spin around and fall back down again-- it just doesn't make sense according to laws of physics. The way Michael sold didn't make Hogan look powerful; it made the match look, to use the word non-wrestling fans love to use, "fake". That's my understanding anyway.
