Shawn Michaels returning to WWE

From PWInsider, with video following:

Shawn Michaels, who retired after Wrestlemania 26, announced today that he and World Wrestling Entertainment have come to terms on a new deal that will see Michaels working backstage for the company.

Michaels noted that he wants to help the company "move forward" but stated he would not be returning to the ring, that he is not the General Manager of Raw and that there have been no discussions of Michaels appearing on camera.

So from what I understand, Kalyx is saying Shawn Micheals has left the WWE the way Kalyx is done with TPWW. In other words, not at all?

Oh yeah, it might not be sometime soon, but you know he will wrestle again. Especially now since he'll be there backstage more than not, he'll get the itch.

Nah, dont think he'll wrestle again. He isn't bad off financially like Flair is I assume, and seems like a smart enough guy to know when hes done.

He'll probably just do promotional stuff like Austin does here and there, a spokesman of sorts.

It's funny. He was constantly talking about how he's done with WWE, how it's all behind him and we shouldn't expect to see him back, but then he comes in for the Troops show and he now has a contract to help out backstage.

I don't think it'll be in the near future, but I think he's got the itch already and he'll be back in the ring within a few years. Maybe a tag match or something. You don't say you're completely done with something and then go "oh look I signed a new contract" without there being a possibility for more.

I'd say it wasn't a big deal if it was a legends deal or something, but that doesn't sound like the case here.

I'm not saying it's definite, but I look at his 2002 return. Literally the Saturday before he came out and joined the nWo, he said he was completely finished with wrestling on Confidential.

And that cane match would be better than 99% of anything that year.

It could be the first step to him coming back. Obviously this can lead to him taking an on-camera role like a GM or manager, and then eventually having a match.

I hope not.

It depends on how much WWE would want to do it. They'll try to chip at him if they see fit.
Especially when they need something hot around a Wrestlemania or Summerslam. I really want him to have some conviction in his retirement, since it was quite perfect.

This could definitely just stay backstage and not go any further. But he's an awful big name to have around without it coming up.

If anything, he should get a recurring role. I wish I had a better example, but I'm thinking along the lines of Ron Simmons who shows on camera just to say "DAMN"

Look, some people just need a job when they retire. For a PA role, I hear HHH pays pretty well.

Croeso'n ol HBK, note to you don't go back in the ring and fck your legacy up. Yeah he'd be a great asset backstage and helping the young guys get over. Imagine a new HBK starting off.

Shawn's not wrestling. Even if he doesn't say it, I'm sure it had to bother him a little bit that Ric Flair told him he'd have his last match with him, only to come back later and wrestle. So Shawn knows what that feels like, and he doesn't want to do the same thing to Undertaker.

I don't think anyone bought Flair's retirement as legit.

I did. Hindsight's 20/20, but at the time, most people did.

I don't see Shawn ever returning to the ring for a long time if ever. He's the one person who I see actually staying true to his promise on retiring from wrestling. Now appearences are another thing. The WWE knows this and wants to capitalize on it and by signing Shawn to some sort of contract they have a star that can help them promote and get headlines.

I think this is more a contract for Shawn where he works behind the scenes and does appearences once in a while to help promote events, like he did for Wrestlemania a couple weeks back.

Shawn did say it. He also said he went out and bought himself and Ric matching Rolex watches and Ric pawned his. That's a slap in the face for Shawn and Shitting on your legacy for Ric. Shawn said this right before WM. He's not getting in the ring again. The contract was basically WWE's way of saying "You're not going to TNA, right?"

Maybe within this contract, they put it that he will be inducted into Hall of Fame in 2011.

I don't think it'll be in the near future, but I think he's got the itch already and he'll be back in the ring within a few years. Maybe a tag match or something. You don't say you're completely done with something and then go "oh look I signed a new contract" without there being a possibility for more.

I'd say it wasn't a big deal if it was a legends deal or something, but that doesn't sound like the case here.
In fairness the tribute to the troops isnt really anything. Coming out as dx to wrestling fans/troops is his way of giving back. he did say he would make a few appearances a year and going over for the troops is one, im sure anything else on camera will be like ron Simmons or IRS random cameo.

Shawn Michaels said from the very beginning, since the moment he retired, that he would make appearances every now in a while, just not wrestling. So I don't know why it's such a big deal now when he says he could make an appearance here and there...he's never said he wouldn't...so he's not "leaving the door open to wrestling again" or anything...he's consistent with what he's always said.
