11 Things We Learned From Shawn Michaels On The Ross Report
5. Matches Involving Personal Issues
Ross goes on a rant about how important matches are when they're booked around personal issues between contestants rather than just competing for titles and asks Shawn for his take. HBK replies that the championship should always be a focus, but that in a perfect world, you can combine the two. He says it always works when the story goes deeper than just two men competing for prestige, and that's when you draw money. This leads into a discussion about John Cena and whether or not having the title will affect how over he is, and they both agree that he doesn't need the championship to maintain his status, then Ross comments on how the fans only boo Cena because it's the "in" thing to do. HBK adds that Cena's still the only guy whose absence leads to a noticeable downturn in the numbers.
