Shawn Michaels’ fame as a WWE Superstar has made him well-known beyond wrestling, even in sports like football. During a recent Green Bay Packers game, Tucker Kraft pulled off Michaels’ famous kip-up move and now The Heartbreak Kid has reacted to Kraft’s epic moment.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft had a standout game against the Detroit Lions, including scoring a touchdown. However, what grabbed attention wasn’t just his performance but the way he got back on his feet after a big third-quarter hit.

Following a pass from quarterback Jordan Love, Kraft ran about 10 yards before leaping over a Lions defender and colliding with two others mid-air. After falling to the ground, he amazed everyone by quickly performing a kip-up, springing back to his feet and back into action, reminiscent of Shawn Michaels.

The Barstool Sports Twitter account also mentioned how Kraft turned into Shawn Michaels after the kip-up, saying, “Tucker Kraft turned into Shawn Michaels after this hit.” Shawn Michaels clearly saw what Tucker did, as he took to Twitter and rated it 10/10, writing, “10 💔 out of a possible 10 💔.”
