I remember a story where he tried to make an ass out of Ken Shamrock by calling out his moves during the match loud enough that people could hear him. I think the only reason Shamrock didn't do anything is because he had no idea what was going on. Then there was the time where he along with Triple H tried to bury the Rock back when he was IC champion. He apparently told Ken to "call your spots nice and loud".

There's the story with Dean Douglas. HBK was told he would drop the Intercontinental Belt to Douglas, but he didn't like it. Sometime after that he was ambushed outside a Syracuse Nightclub. He was banged up for days but was well enough to wrestle.
Shawn then bragged to his friends that he'd make Douglas look stupid in their match. Probably by no selling his offense. Once word got back to Douglas, he threatened that if he made him look bad, he'd go outside the script and kick his ass for real. Then Shawn wimped out, saying he suddenly wasn't well enough to wrestle Douglas and forefitted the Intercontinental Title to him..only for his off screen buddy Razor Ramon to take it from him 15 minutes later.

I think the Taker/HBK one gets blown out of proportion. I saw the interview, and all Taker said was there was concern that Shawn wouldn't do the right thing, so he helped "motivate him" . From what I heard, Shawn wasn't pissed so much about jobbing to Austin. It was that he was badly hurt and didn't want to wrestle AT ALL.

This thread could be 20 pages long and still not cover everything I have heard/read about Shawn. He was a grade A douche from everything I have read.
The Hogan thing doesn't make sense because Hulk was the babyface. He had to win the last match, so if a rematch was ever in the cards than Shawn likely would have won the first one unclean so Hogan could get revenge. In other words, I think this story is fabricated. HBK being upset that he had to feud with Masters seems a lot more plausible to me.

He only found out there was going to be only 1 match on the Friday or Saturday of Summerslam, AFAIK. Hence the legendary overselling job that he pulled.

I'm trying to think of who told the "taped fists" story first, I'm honestly not sure. But basically, what I heard is Shawn was being a prick backstage, gloating that he was not going to drop the belt to Austin. Taker just stared him down and started taping up his fists and Michaels backed down in a hurry.
Shawn may be an awesome wrestler, but Taker is just a wrestling god to me. Just so we're clear on my bias.

Definitely not like there were in the middle of this past decade. Unless some things haven't been reported, he might have grown up a little.

He pays for everyone when he goes out, is less of a jerk to fans, etc.

For his sake, Im glad he grown up.

Wasn't Shawn also responsible for Chris Candido quitting in '96?

Another great story:
Okay, so Marty Janetty and Shawn are getting ready for a photo shoot. One of them finds out that they're not getting paid as much for it as the other wrestlers were. So Shawn tells Marty to basically go up to Vince and tell him that he could kiss both their asses for paying them so little for their photos. Marty goes and says that to Vince and Vince calls over Shawn. Shawn proceeds to completely deny everything that Marty said and basically throws him under the bus.

Pretty obvious story: having a fling with Tammy Sytch, then turning around and accusing Bret Hart of having "Sunny days."

Unless some things haven't been reported, he might have grown up a little. Apparently, Benoit had been keeping Orton in line up until that weekend. Orton reportedly took the news really hard. Since then, not a peep of douchebaggery from Orton.
