Heartbreak and Triumph: The Shawn Michaels Story - Shawn Michaels ... HBK: The Heartbreak Kid - the most resilient champion in WWE. And pound for pound, he may well be the toughest. He was the first Grand Slam champion - the only competitor to hold every title WWE had to offer at the time. Weighing in at 225 pounds, he was WWE Champion on three occasions, defeating men who were close to twice his size. From the very beginning of his spectacular career Michaels gained a reputation for pushing his body to extremes. He was willing to go the limit: to do whatever he had to do to put on a stunning show - and eventually his body paid the price. In his early thirties, an age when most Superstars are hitting their prime, Michaels had to bow out of the spotlight, plagued by recurrent injuries which had ended - or so he thought - his career. But then, sensationally, after four years out of the ring, in June 2002 'The Showstopper' returned to a rapturous reception from which he has never looked back. This is the full story of his truly remarkable comeback, and of his glittering twenty-year-plus career.

Throughout the book he talks about his big matches and storylines and quite openly discusses how a lot of the other wrestlers didn't actually like him. The stories between Shawn and the others really do make for ...more

Rating:

I've been a big fan of WWE wrestling ever since we first got cable TV at home back in the early 90's. Of course my enthusiasm and desire to watch it has lessened over the years I used to watch it every week without fail. Around about the same time Shawn Michaels was really starting to make a name for himself. He was one of the first wrestlers I really started to support, even though he was being portrayed as one of the bad guys, or heels as he refers to them. So when Pip showed me a copy of his autobiography I decided to borrow it off her and give it a read. I had heard that a couple of the wrestling books in previous years had been pretty good but this was ...
