Shawn Michaels was the special guest on this week’s edition of “The Ross Report,” hosted by Jim Ross, and the subject of WWE wanting Michaels to return to the company in an in-ring capacity came up.
When asked by JR if WWE might try to get guys like him and Steve Austin to appear at WrestleMania 32 since it’s in Texas, Michaels answered simply by saying:
“I’ve already had an offer. I’ve enjoyed being retired.”
An offer to appear at WrestleMania 32 is apparently not the only thing WWE has asked Michaels, as HBK revealed he has also been asked to be a part of the WWE creative team.
Michaels said:
“It wouldn’t be a great fit for me, There’d be a lot of stifling going on. I’ve been able to sway them on things other people couldn’t. I’d be open to the Pat Patterson gig, where you have a couple of projects and you could write in from home about it. If you’re going to be there every week, you might as well go back and be an on-air character and make more money.”
