Why do people act like HBK drew money??

[TheIraq]

Lol you niggas say Shawn Michaels wasnt drawing....... Like the WCW/NWO vs WWF wars werent going on........ If he didnt draw he its because of the WCW/ NWO./ WWF wars...... Michaels gets the title March of 1996, Hall and Nash leave May 1996, Bret Hart decides to take a break until November, which is Survivor Series........ Nash and Hall are with a different company being reckless and doing whatever the fuck...... WWF talent was very thin 90 to 94 by the way....... Sure the ratings in the WCW/ WWF Monday Night Wars were lower but did you ever take a step back and see why you watched WCW more??????? If not it was because the names are more familiar......... Who the fuck wants to watch the Bodydonnas when you can see your old favorites from the WWF tag team?????????? Lol if Shawn didnt draw its because WCW had better storylines and more familiar faces....... Shawn Michaels carried the company and drew when Bret had to go find his own smile and reinvent himself....... Niggas actin like Shawn Michaels was built to be bigger than NWO (legends with more than average ability) when all the WWF had was Marc Mero and Goldust and Stone Cold just coming into his own lol........ Like did you really wanna see more Savio Vega and "Ringmaster" Steve Austin matches bruh??????? Fuck out of here with that drawing power shit...... If there was no Shawn Michaels what would the WWF have been April '95 to August '97?????????? Shit would have been dead and WCW would have took that shit over PERIOD......... If you saw it or remember it Shawn Michaels owned that shit...........

It's good he came back in the 2000's and basically laid the cement on his legacy....but yeah he aint draw shit and without the rivalry with bret that "lost his smile" ass nigga woulda been looked at like the no draw he was in the 90's.

HBK was fucking up the money if any thing case in point

Damn Jim ethered the f**k outta Shawn Michaels. I always wondered why Vader never won the belt

I think I heard somewhere, Vader was suppose to win it at Survivor Series 96 (I think) but some shss happen

He was supposed to win it at Summerslam, Michaels was supposed win it back at the Royal Rumble

Shawn could have drew money but he wasn't willing to put dudes over . Vader was a big star coming off his WCW run and could have bought more attention to the WWF if he won the belt but he didn't want to put dude over so no money was drawn .

It's called revisionist history.

This... There's some out right outlandish things being said in here? Sting didn't sell? There's a reason sting is the icon and he never set foot in wwe. Nobody watched wcw before the nwo? Tell me who the 4 horsemen are, then. Seriously, like it or not, hbk held down the wwe as best as anyone could at the time. He could drop by tonight or a year from tonight and the crowd would pop like a muthafucka. The bottom line is that in the mid to late 90s WCW had a better product. It doesn't matter who wwe put the belt on, the result would have been the same.

HBK was a great in ring worker he almost single handily carried the company from about '94 to about' 97 or '98 along with Bret Hart.

Micheals was a great worker but not near the draw that that guys were before or after him were.

Michaels wasn't near the draw of Hogan or Austin or to a lesser degree even Cena.

He's a better wrestler than any of those guys ever were but not a better draw.

His gigolo gimmick generated zero interest heck I didn't start checking for HBK until DX was formed and by then his heyday had kinda passed guys like Austin and The Rock were the face of the company but they did kinda reinvent HBK with DX.

When Hogan came back Vincent tried to bring back some of that magic it didn't generate the hype though as both guys were well past their prime.

I can't forgive Shawn for fucking over jannety at that royal rumble....Shawn was fucked up on all types of shit and WWF blamed jannety for the terrible match, Shawn didnt hold him down....jannety became a train wreck after that, even to he was always a party guy....that killed him IMO....their feud was lackluster as fuck, that's when I knew Shawn would never draw shit
