    What do you think were Shawn Michaels intentions in that match with Hogan at SummerSlam? Let us know in the comments below!

      i tend to believe Shawn. I think he was working Hogan much like Terry Funk did. Hogan is a super hero character and so you go over the top and it just weird out of context when clipped and without seeing how Shawn worked as a heel for the last decade of his career. I actually thought Shawn laid out a pretty good match that night that built to a finish where it felt like Shawn is absolutely screwing Hogan out of this one tonight, and then nope Hulk is just too good.

      His intentions were to do what they wanted him to do. This match has become such an internet myth over the years. The match was no different than any Mr. Perfect match (he even did Mr. Perfect's turnbuckle spot), Sgt Slaughter match, anything Hogan did in the late '80s, early '90s.

      He was shittin on Hogan no matter what he says and THAT’S OK. It was like cartoon Rambo lol! Rambo didn’t want to kill people, but he was the best at it. HBK was the best at being the biggest ass that ever lived and he proved that night that he will always have that ability.

    damn, seeing Shawn's muscles, specifically his shoulder repeatedly flexing as he moves his arm, he keeps his fitness up even when retired. make me think that as a NXT trainer he's using a more hands on approach and physically showing the guys a thing or two. its just interesting to see considering between his wwe runs he ran a wrestling school. Brian Danielson even trained under him, but Danielson has always cited William regal as his biggest mentor. back then it gave the impression amongst fans that shawn wasn't that great a teacher (this was perpetuated by whatculture in one of their many lists, not my personal opinion). I just like to view it as more character growth for shawn and he's now connecting with people more than in the 2000's. wish jim cornette would give him a second chance, I think shawns earned it.

    @jaythor70 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +29

    Hogan was long past his in-ring date. Michaels, the character, acted as a heel to try and bring out the best of Hogan, the character. Get him fired up, get him passionate enough to have a match that Michaels (the character) would know was facing Hogan at his best possible, and could he beat that guy. It's a decent story, for WWE. He did oversell, trying to make Hogan's offense look good, because Hogan isn't in 2005what he was in 1985, or even 95. Hogan's matches always looked ridiculous to NWA fans like me, anyway.

      There's a difference between over bumping and overselling. Taking a big bump off a basic move is over bumping. Taking a move, falling over, getting up, spinning around and falling down again is over selling. It was a little too far and turned a dream match into a comedy match.

    I believe what he's saying. I watched the match and at no point did I think he was "overselling" or trying to make Hogan look bad. That match was great and the buildup was great hence that was the highest selling pay per view of the year behind Wrestlemania. You know the saying, "haters are gonna hate." You always get fans who like to think they know all the ins and outs of wrestling when they don't, so they'll pretend like they're analysts, and insiders. The proof is in the numbers. That was the best wrestling program in a long time. 2005 was a post Attitude period where proper booking and proper build ups were a thing of the distance past. This felt like wrestling was finally back. We had Hogan in the main event, we had Piper's Pit in the build up, we had Larry King (in parody) and most of all we had a huge main event that we actually looked forward to seeing. It felt like the 80's again, and it was amazing. And I'll say it again, it was the second highest pay per view buy rate after Wrestlemania that year. All GREAT things. So anybody who shits on this program and/or, is either a hater, or is a mindless dope who just believes what the haters and "know it alls" have to say.

Shawn was never anything remotely close to a "body guy"; to the contrary he is always mentioned as the very first name, the epitome of the much smaller, more athletic types that was turned to in the wake of the steroid scandal and defined the most beloved era of wrestling ever. Perhaps, indeed, part of his holding up so well is the very fact that he probably took it easy on the PEDs when younger in bodybuilding you see this often that these are the guys who can still look good and don't face health crises when older. This isn't a current video but he still looks quite good today. Especially for a guy who'd gone balls to the wall with something as generally, multiple-ways unhealthy as pro wrestling.

    Only thing funnier than that promo with “Larry King,” was him bouncing around like an idiot, That was more entertaining than what a real match would be with how limited Hogan was in his prime much less 130 years old, seeing Shawn get punched, and overselling like he got hit with a nuke still makes me laugh so hard it hurts, if Shawn could go that much back to ‘97 and not conflict with his religious beliefs, why didn’t we get more of it is my question, seems it was just the s**ual content he didn’t care for…except when he was blindfolded so he couldn’t see as we saw during the DX barbecue in 2006, lmfao.

      @@korbendallas12tell us you know nothing about wresting without telling us you know nothing about wrestling. 😂 Hogan was a TRASH wrestler. The man had three moves: the Hulk-up, the Boot, and the leg drop. The latter effed up his back and made his already meager technical skills worse. Hogan was never big because he could wrestle. He was big because Vince saw an opportunity. He was big, blonde, and he could work a crowd. He went supernova when he adopted the Captain America gimmick. He was a cartoon superhero in the 80’s, so cemented himself in the cultural zeitgeist. Like any semi-smart celebrity, he’s carefully maintained his position since then. And I’m in no way mad at him for that. He achieved and has held onto a rarefied air. But to think he did all that because he could actually wrestle is ignorant at best, outright delusional at worst.

      I think because Michaels did it in a way that stretched fans' credulity a little too far. The shoulder block that sent him flying out of the ring and the big boot that made him fall down, get back up, spin around and fall back down again-- it just doesn't make sense according to laws of physics. The way Michael sold didn't make Hogan look powerful; it made the match look, to use the word non-wrestling fans love to use, "fake". That's my understanding anyway.

    Going back and watching it, I don't get the controversy over it. Shawn bumped more than normal because Hogan was older and couldn't, and Shawn was bitey in his promo because they wanted Attitude Era Shawn vs. New Hogan. The so-called controversy, I think, was purely cooked up by fans because of the people involved and because, without this story, the match wouldn't have been that interesting.
