Am I the only one who REALLY misses Shawn?

[The Champ]

Shawn Michaels never faced The Rock.

I think a lot of people miss Shawn, but I think he had the right idea getting out while he was still relevant and while people still respected what he could do in a wrestling ring. I can respect that more than I can guys like Hogan and Flair who have overstayed their welcome by a large margin and really have nothing left to give, yet they feel an almost compulsive need to stay out there. And I understand loving the business too, but there has to be a limit somewhere, both dudes are pushing 60. But back to Shawn, his last two Mania matches with The Undertaker were classics and it's awesome that he's going to be remembered for getting such a wonderful send off and for being great right up until the very end. We may miss him, but I'm sure that he's enjoying life at home with his family, and at the end of the day, that's really what matters more than anything else.

I haven't been watching steadily every week like I did before Michaels hung up the boots. I watched RAW and Smackdown! every single week, watched his old matches constantly, and always checked the results for ECW cus I don't get Sci-Fi where I live. Now, I don't care about watching or following steady. Its too bad cus Bret is the GM and there would be a lot of possibilities for angles. The ratings have steadily dropped since Wrestlemania and in my opinion I don't think its coincidence. Michaels was the reason I started watching again and since he's gone I don't care to follow. What seems funny is that there were reports a month ago he was enjoying retirement. They came out in late April and May, when he always took a lot of time off after Mania and returned at Summerslam, so thats normal schedule for Michaels.

Haven't really noticed, honestly. Sure, I'm sure he could spice up the product a little bit. Perhaps even do the impossible and make people actually care about Ted Dibiase. For the most part, not a big deal though. He routinely takes off this portion of the year anyway, so what is there to really miss?

It won't be until around Wrestlemania time until most people will really start caring, but everyone will get over it at some point. It's a revolving door. Everyone gets replaced at some point, brother.

I miss Shawn but those times are over, if he was a commentator that would be cool. I hope a wrestler retires to a commentator it would be perfect to stay with the company and not have to wrestle. I think thats the best thing to be after a hall of famer.

I would be lying if i say i dont miss Shawn but the wrestling buisness and all sports for that matter are like a cycle the new guys come in then get to the middle of the cycle which is their prime and then the end which is when the past prime (Retirement) it has to happen sooner or later the new guys are coming in (For example Sheamus) and Shawn is at the end of the cycle. Hell i miss Shawn too like i stated but would you rather have him go now or go later and being remembered for that 60 year old guy who just wouldnt stop (Not in the good way in a way like garbage you couldnt get rid off)

I would say any true fan misses Shawn. He was the most dependable veteran performer in WWE since his return in 2002. On any given Raw, if the booking or wrestling was weak that night, Shawn's match would redeem the entire program and make the entire show seem better. Anyone he stepped in the ring with was made to look great, no matter their skill level. Except for Undertaker, who's semi-retired, there's just no one else who can do that. He is very conspicuous by his absence.
