The Shawn Michaels name originated long before his WWF/E run, so he should be more than fine.

Work procrastination tangent:

Is there an official reason behind the name Shawn Michaels? Is it because his real name starts with Michael and Shawn? Is it to do with Bret Michaels, who was a Rocker around that time? Is it because it sounds almost exactly like Lorne Michaels and HBK was performing live on Saturday nights? Is it all three?

Personally reckon it's the same as my mate in my industry who had a last name he couldn't stand. But his first and second name sounded better reversed so used that for a stage name.

ROH rises from the ashes after being bought by a consortium and Jeff Jarrett takes control of the wrestling side of things

After many, many more releases, this year's Wrestlemania is just one match; Goldberg vs. Brock.

Nick Khan is found dead, the murder weapon is a sledgehammer and Peter Gabriel is arrested.

Vince McMahon is finally wished well in his future endeavours by the WWE.

- Bret finally confesses Montreal was a work 

- Jannetty dies

- Iron Shiek doesn't die for another year 

- Goldberg retires 

- Cornette shows up on AEW

- Vince McMahon sits down for a shoot interview with RF and has the cheap shiny RF poster squinty positioned behind him. Feinstein will say "yeah we'll come to that later" and refuse to ask follow up questions and miss out on key insights.

I thought it would be fun to look back at this thread, and even though it's "crazy predictions", on an utterly insane year, I'm amazed that only one prediction (unless I've overlooked something) in this thread came to pass...

To be fair, this isn't too far off and Theres time for Double J to take charge.

AEW Impact by end of the year. As in they keep signing numpties and the novelty wears off four years in.

Fatigue well and truly settled in.
