Shawn Michaels Reveals He Was Offered A Match Against Undertaker ‘4 Years’ After He Retired

Amidst the rumors of Shawn Michaels possibly facing the Undertaker at the upcoming Survivor Series PPV, a new interview has revealed an interesting offer Michaels was presented with about 4 years ago.

Inside The Ropes recently posted a Shawn Michaels interview from their YouTube Channel and in the video, Shawn revealed that he was offered another match with Taker after hanging his boots.

The former World Champion said that he was offered a match against the Undertaker ‘about four years’ after he had retired from in-ring competition.

And according to the Heartbreak Kid, it was easily the most intriguing ideas he has ever been presented with and even his wife had gotten excited for it, saying that it’s pretty cool.

What’s interesting to note here is that Shawn retired after he put his career on the line in a match and lost against the Undertaker at WrestleMania 26, in 2010.

4 years after his retirement would mean he was offered the bout at the time around WrestleMania 30, where Undertaker faced Brock Lesnar and his famous winning streak came to an end.

Now the big question here is if Shawn Michaels was WWE’s first choice for breaking Taker’s streak, and what would the current scenario be like if he had ended up defeating The Dead Man at Mania instead?
