Wednesday,March 10,2004 - KayfabeMan recaps:
"HBK" Shawn Michaels on FNC's 'Fox and Friends'

**After missing out on Ric Flair on FSN's "Cold Pizza" due
to repeatedly switching back & forth to this shitty excuse
for a show; slightly after 8:40 AM Shawn Michaels comes
out (after a clip of him zipping down to the ring from WM
is shown) for what should be a brief & "exciting" segment.

Shawn immediately plugs the 3-way at Wrestlemania 20.

Says he started watching wrestling at age twelve & knew
right away that he wanted to do it when he grew up. The
male F&F TV host (Brian Kilmeade) asks who was wrestling
when Shawn first tuned in,and Michaels states that it was
Tully Blanchard & Wahoo McDaniel. Brian then says he had
different wrestlers that he watched,like Bruno Sammartino,
Bugsy McGraw and others.

Shawn then says he grew up in South Texas,so they didn't
have cable right off the bat.Says when cable came out,then
he got to see Backlund, Flair, and all the guys from Atlanta.
Says he spent all Saturday afternoons watching wrestling.

They discuss his injury,he says in early 2000 he had his L4
and L5 fused together,and has 2 screws and 2 plates in him.
Says his "comeback" was a "spiritually motivated" thing,and
he feels great now.He says that there is no risk to re-injure
that particular injury.

They talk about his dad being in the US Airforce,and he says
he used to move around alot. Says he was born in Arizona,&
2 months later they moved to Great Britain for a while. After
that he moved somewhere else,and then wound up in Texas.
They do a game to close the segment where they do fantasy
matches and have Shawn pick a winner.

Governor Arnold Schwickenheimer -v- Governor Jesse Ventura
He says that Governor Arnold could beat Jesse Ventura easy.

Rosie O'Donnell -v- Martha Stewart
Says that "size doesn't matter"; Martha Stewart would win it.

F&F Host Brian Kilmeade -v- Pro Athlete Brian Boitano
That gets a laugh from Shawn & the crew; he picks Kilmeade.

He then plugs RAW and Wrestlemania 20 on PPV,and done....
