I just watched Shawn Micheal's Heartbreak and Triumph DVD (great dvd by the way, sucky matches though). They talked a lot about HBK growing up and when he became big in the nineties. Everybody was discussing how HBK was always in a bad mood. He was always stubborn and grouchy, etc.
I must of said this about 10 times on this forum, but I went to a Smackdown show a few weeks before Backlash 08. It was the one where Khali had the chicken, goat, and dancers for the Big Show. The main event was Taker vs Festus, if that helps you remember.
Anyways, that night HBK was there and did a little segment with Batista (they were feuding). One of the dancers was my brother's friend. He got paid to bring in the animals, dance, and even got a backstage pass.
He told my brother all the stories, what went on, the wrestlers he met, etc. Anyways, he said Triple H was a really nice guy, Khali was normal, but he said HBK seemed like a real jerk. My brother's friend walked into the backstage area, carrying the animal crates and Shawn walked up to him and said to him.
"Hey pal, here's my keys. Go take my car to the parking lot."
My brother's friend told him sorry, that he was just here to bring in the animals and help set up. HBK gave him a mean look and just said something like this. This isn't word for word but...
"Well if you're just here to do little tasks and not help out the wrestlers, you might as well do ballet."
Do you think it was just Shawn always had something on his mind, or is it true he is/was just generally grouchy?
