iliketurtles 0 Report post Posted November 11, 2005 We saw a large crowd gathered in front of the hotel. We put our heads down and ran through the mod. They were yelling obscenties at us,a nd one woman punched hunter in the face. The lobby was jamemd with angry people as well, so we sprinted all the way to the elevator. We were safe now, and we went to my room and tried to settle down. I looked at Hunter, he looekd at me, and then I said, "We did it, dind't we?" "You did what you had to do, Shawn." He gave me a hug and what seemed like forever, we sat on my bed. Hugging. And then he touched me in my special place. And I touched him back. We had screwed Bret. Now we're going to screw each other. Hunter took of his clothes to reveal his ring gear. I was still hot and sweaty from my match, so I was ready to go. This was going to be my most amazing match yet. As we started to make passionate love making... ...sorry, just adding in what you forgot to write about the rest of that excerpt. I guess you'll have to buy the book to read the rest. This book sounds like one of those fan fictions where they pick their favorite celebrities to have sex or whatever the fuck it is. It also sounds like an 8th grader wrote this book.

JimmyHendricks 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2005 In Shawn's defense, the Hogan, Angle, and Rock books all seemed horribly ghostwritten as well. Only Foley's sounded like him. And yes, Shawn was lying....... I was at that Kansas City show (the night after Pillman's death) and it was most certainly NOT sold out--the entire right upper deck was empty. Well, there were about 1000 people sitting up there, but there was easily 3-4000 empty seats. I've never really picked a side regarding Montreal. Both Bret and Shawn seemed like major assholes over the whole thing. I tend to believe if it was Shawn getting screwed by Bret then the entire IWC would be calling it the greatest moment ever. Yes, Shawn was a prick, but Bret was no saint either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZGangsta 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2005 Yeah but this doesn't even read like a ghostwriter, it reads like some stupid fan-fiction that some loser would put out as other people have mentioned. There's three possiblities here in my mind: 1)Shawn wrote this. That would account for the horrible writing, but this doesn't really read like someone who actually went through the events accounting it. Plus the publishers would have to be crazy to realease something that bad. 2)It was ghostwritten. In that case it was one of the worst ghostwriters EVER. The publishers would have to be crazy to realease it. 3)Lame-ass 'fan-fiction.' In whch case it probably WILL end with Shawn and HHH doin' it . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hektik 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2005 The WWE was supposed to be releasing a Shawn Michaels book a week after they released the Bret DVD. It was supposed to be their rebuttal to Bret through Shawn. I'm not sure if that is still the case or if they pushed the release of Shawn's book back.

It has a synopsis on most of the matches from the DVD, an article covering Montreal, an interview with Bret, and then an article on the DVD in general.

The Mandarin 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2005 Man, this sounds very, very ghostwriter-ish. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I could at least imagine, even though he himself did not write it, Ric Flair narrating "To Be the Man" word-for-word (for the most part). I cannot imagine Shawn writing what I just saw whatsoever. Most of his promos are directionless and baffling. I can't imagine Michaels talking without that quirky intonation. "Uh, the uh, uhm, so-called *air quotes* SCREW-JOB. Well, it uh, happened, back in-- 1997. And Bret and I-- *odd hand gesture, strange facial reaction* weren't exactly what you could call the best of friends. *long pause, smile*" It just doesn't seem like Shawn Michaels. Or the truth, for that matter. Doesn't look like I'll be buying it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everytime Bret wants it buried, the WWE always find a way to dig it back up. Yes, Shawn was a prick, but Bret was no saint either.

CanadianChick 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2005 Regardless of anyone's opinion of Shawn, does that seem like his voice, sorta speak? I could imagine Foley reading his to me, as I could with Edge. Rocky, I couldn't. This, I can't see Shawn talking like that in the slightest. CM Funk is right, it's not really quirky enough.
