10 Forgotten Storylines For WWE Hall Of Famers

10. Just A Sexy Servant - Shawn Michaels & JBL

We're (super)kicking things off with a double dose of Hall of Famers and this very odd little story from the end of 2008/beginning of 2009.

After losing his family's savings in the global financial crash (in storyline only, we think), Shawn Michaels entered the employ of everyone's favourite Texas millionaire John "Bradshaw" Layfield.

This angle actually resulted in two separate pay-per-view matches, the first of which went down at Royal Rumble 2009.

JBL faced John Cena for the World Heavyweight Championship with HBK assigned to making sure his boss won the match. He didn't, thank God. Imagine JBL as world champion in 2009?

Master and servant faced off at No Way Out the following month. If Michaels won, then he would be free from the cowboy's grasp. However, if results went the other way, then Shawn would have to work for JBL forever.

You can probably work out which way the match went.

Thinking of Michaels as a subordinate to anybody, let alone JBL, is weird enough. Things get even stranger when you realise that this was the feud Michaels was in directly before his WrestleMania 25 match with The Undertaker!

What a world we live in.
