    Those saying Shawn Michales is only 5'10 or 5'9 (now) miss the entire point that wrestlers and people in general lose inches with age and back surgeries. I think Michaels was more like 5'11 to 5'11.5 in his prime based on him standing next to various others. I think the presenter is spot on on this one. Shawn was always half and inch to an inch shorter than 6'0 or so Bret Hart.

      You gotta be 6ft minimum to be considered tall. 5'8" is average and 5'9", 5'10, and 5'11" are just "above average" but not tall. The word tall is reserved for 6ft and above.

    If you see Michaels around 1990-1996, he was actually taller than Bret and Flair, he looked about 186cm.
    Think you're forgetting about his back surgery, he came back noticeably shorter, looked like he lost about 2 inches.
    Would say he was 186cm before his surgery and then shrank to about 179cm.

    He was 5'10 and half peak and now probably 5'9. Triple H was always 6'1 at best. There was a video with him and Ashton Kutcher who is legit 6'2 and kutcher had at least an inch on him. John Cena is not 6'1 lol otherwise he'd be the same height as Triple H and he is not. He is 6 feet. That adds up.

      @@KA-te7xk that doesn't mean shit, tho our perception is skewed because we can't see the top of our heads and most of time you think people are taller than they actually are. I'm also 5'11 and have encountered guys who I thought were taller than me, only for us to stand in front of a mirror and we were same height or I was slightly taller than them. Check celebheights which is always legit they have Cena at 6 feet and half, 1.84 which seems fair. This may have been in his prime, now maybe 1.83. Shawn Michaels never looked legit 5'11 next to Cena, maybe 5'10 and 3/4 which is almost 5'11. As I said, look the show Punk'd where Ashton Kutcher punks Triple H. Ashton Kutcher is legit 6'2 and he always wears flat shoes like vans, yet he had at least one inch on triple H and that video is from 2006 or something. The rock is another liar. Dude has been claiming 6'5 for years which is ridiculous as he was always shorter than 6'4 randy orton. Rock may have been legit 6'3 in his prime, now maybe 6'2 and half. Out of all these dudes the only one who is his billed height is Randy Orton at 6'4. He towers over almost everyone and doesn't look short next to Kane and Undertaker. Both of them always worse elevator shoes especially Kane. Kane was probably never above 6'7 in his prime and Undertaker maybe 6'6, now they're shorter. Today Kane is maybe 6'6 and undertaker 6'5

    I could buy 5'11 "peak. He looked tallish back in the day, but he always looked like he was just a bit shy of the 6 foot mark compared to other wrestlers, with the biggest evidence being with Bret Hart in photos. Bret was supposed to be a solid 6 foot, and Michaels always looked to be a solid inch shorter. 5'9 "nowadays is probably a good guess as well. So yea, I would say 5'10.5 to 5'11 peak and 5'8.5 to 5'9 now.

    • @Longlostpuss
      @Longlostpuss 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Michaels was noticeably taller than Bret in the Rocker years, all the way up to 1996, he looked about 186cm. He was even noticeably taller than Flair who was also billed at 6' 1", but I reckon he was about 6' 0.5" tops in his lifts, he was slightly taller than Bret. Shawn was taller than both back then when you saw them wrestle around 1992.
      I think people have forgotten about his hiatus and his back surgery.
      He came back suddenly looking much shorter.

      You say that but miss his Rocker years where he didn't wear those motorcycle boots and was billed from 5'11 in 1992 to 6'1 in 1995.
      There are pictures of the rockers where Marty and Shawn are standing together with other people, and you can see their white boots they wore. They are an inch apart. Then you find other images with Marty, like in AWA and Lawler's promotion, and Shawn is wearing heeled cowboy boots and Marty is in converse or other high tops. There Shawn looks taller.
      Then there is the Canadian shopping network footage from 1995. He is in cowboy boots there. He is 2 inches, at least, shorter than his 6'1 cutout.
      With the rockers again, there is footage of Anvil, Shawn, Marty, and Warrior doing a promo in front of a crowd. They are all about the same height, 5'9-5'10ish and then Warrior who is actually 6'1+ and you can tell. He got height on them all. Find the footage on TH-cam if it is still up; people even comment that all of them but warrior look about average height.
      Shawn was billed at 5'11 in 1992. In 1993, he was billed at 6 feet. Then in 1995, 6'1. You can find playing cards and other various merch that state this online.
      Find the pictures of the 1994 survivor series online too. Shawn's boots have that awkward heel that tall elevator shoes have. His boots are definitely loaded. He was trying to become main event and had his boots lifted. He changed them in 1996 and you can see his lifts on the outside with the sole being very thick instead. Looks a lot like Kane's boots in 1997.
      Then compare those to his rocker boots in 1988. They are flat. Bret, Austin, and Taker always wore flat soled boots. Hence, that footwear advantage made HBK look massive next to Bret and near Austin's height in wrestling boots.
      You think Shawn shrunk in 1997 since most of 1997, he was not in gear during promos and was reduced to his natural height.

    He was roughly six feet tall. Not a very convincing warrior-type, but athletic with good mic skills ... he oversold too much in the ring .... A star ... but not the right guy to carry the organization.

    I was right near Shawn Michael's in the year 2005 at Power House gym I believe he was at his prime an honest 5'11 easily brother. Cena, and Triple H we're also at the gym the same morning. Triple H 6'2
    Cena 6'1
