Shawn Michaels Ran WWE NXT 2.0 In Triple H’s Absence

Shawn Michaels showed up after NXT 2.0 went off the air this week. He was in a pretty good mood as well, because the brand just pulled off a relatively successful relaunch. He was also in charge while Triple H was out of commission.

During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer confirmed that Shawn Michaels was running the show in the Gorilla Position. Triple H might not be back for a while, so HBK held things down.

So Shawn Michaels was the guy running the show, because Triple H, obviously, still is not back, probably won’t be back for a while. So, Shawn was running it.

It was noted that Kevin Dunn was there, and Bruce Prichard had gone down to the Performance Center over a week prior. He also confirmed Ringside News’ exclusive report that Vince McMahon went over the script with Ed Koskey prior to the final approval being handed down.

NXT 2.0 was a pretty interesting show, and they are only getting started. We’ll have to see if this new system sticks.
