Shawn Michaels on Rumors of Match Against AJ Styles

While speaking to the Daily Mirror UK, Shawn Michaels was asked about the once rumored match-up between himself and AJ Styles.

“There was talk about it possibly happening at WrestleMania. I think he’s an unbelievably talented young man. I wish I was 10 to 15 years younger because there are so many great guys. But it’s very important to me, I wouldn’t have retired unless I was ready to walk away. I’m flattered that every year when WrestleMania comes up people talk about me coming back, but I enjoy my time with my family, I enjoy watching WrestleMania and I also enjoy watching WWE move into the future.”

Michaels also discussed the importance of staying retired and mentioned that it’s the current WWE Superstar’s time to shine.

“It’s very important that continues to happen and the only way for it to do so is for some of us in a dignified way to walk away. Much as it would be interesting to be in there with some of those young men, it’s their time now and I think it’s important that we focus on them and the future of the WWE.”
