Rumor: Shawn Michaels Possibly Wrestling in More Matches for WWE

As noted before, Shawn Michaels is currently expected to make his in-ring return WWE at November’s Crown Jewel event in Saudi Arabia. Michaels has been retired from wrestling since his match against The Undertaker at WrestleMania XXVI in 2010.

In an update to Michaels’ WWE status, the Wrestling Observer’s Dave Meltzer reported in this week’s Newsletter that there are some within WWE’s management who currently feel that Michaels might be willing to wrestle in at least one more match in the near future, but the only thing confirmed at this moment for Michaels is the upcoming Saudi event.
