Shawn Michaels has been a prominent figure in WWE. He has been a part of the Stamford-based promotion since 1988. As of now, he can be seen performing executive duties. However, prior to that, Michaels showcased his dominance inside the squared circle for several years. In fact, he is often considered one of the greatest pro wrestlers in history.
Throughout his tenure, Shawn Michaels participated in numerous feuds and won several championships. This includes winning the WWF/WWE Championship three times, the World Heavyweight Championship once, and more. He has also been inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame twice. It can be understood that in his vast in-ring career, HBK has presented several moments that fans still talk about.

Meanwhile, recently, a video from Michaels’ time as a wrestler went viral. In the video, HBK can be seen waiting by the ring for, apparently, a tag. During that, a fan asked Shawn, “How tall are you, 5’2″?“. To this, the WWE Hall of Famer replied, “That depends. When I’m standing on my wallet, I’m 10 foot tall. S*ck it.”
Michaels thus gave a savage response to a fan who was trying to take a dig at him. Also, what’s notable is that there’s no concrete information available about Shawn’s real height. According to some sources, he’s 6’1″, while according to others, he’s 5’11”. HBK’s height thus remains a mystery.

Different fans reacted differently to what HBK said. Some of the fans stated that they miss how Michaels used to be. A fan wrote, “I miss the old Shawn”. On the other hand, some of the fans went ahead and called the WWE Hall of Famer a “legend.”
It now remains to be seen if the viral video will catch the attention of WWE stars or Michaels himself. Also, it would be interesting to see if the former wrestler would have anything to say about the matter.
