If I was confident that people still watch Young Rock, I'd guess this would be our next big meme.

Wonder why the show can't use Shawn?

Going with Chad Frost instead is taking the high road. Calling him Shawn Michaels and throwing him under the bus would have been.....

And without knowing about this, I would have thought it was one of the names proposed for Austin back in the day (and it is a step or two above "Chilly McFreeze").

If you're not going to mention Shawn, why tell the story? It's not a literal shot for shot remake of his life. You can skip that story.

I just find it bizarre that the weird-ass written in third person in kayfabe Rock autobiography is NOT the most self-indulgent story of his own life Rock's put out.

Putting the Shawn Michaels name on ice is a cold move.

I want to like this show, but the inaccuracies just kill me… According to last night's episode, Brian Gerwirtz, who was hired in October 1999 after Vince Russo left for WCW, was the head writer in 1997-98.

My OCD went off on Rock mocking Hunter’s cadence before their ladder match; “that..that did not happen then”.

Seems strange they wouldnt just say it was Shawn, and then have then explain it away the same way Shawn does himself by saying he was a dick back then, but he's since changed.
The line 'let's just say that guy didnt end up a friend' made me feel the heat is still there and the two haven't had a hatchet burying moment.

Which would be interesting given Shawn is overseeing the start of his daughter's career.
