The Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels is very popular for his backstage stories. There was a time in the WWE programming when Michaels would slam anyone with a ‘Sweet-Chin Music’ finisher. Nowadays, Mr. WrestleMania leads his best friend Triple H’s brainchild, the NXT brand.
In addition, Shawn Michaels tries to make younger talent comfortable by giving them performance tips and working on their gimmick. The Showstopper is widely noted as one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. However, the AEW Star Dax Harwood seems to have an opposite opinion on the WWE Hall of Famer, Shawn Michaels.

Today, WWE Producer Jim Cornette took to his Drive-Thru podcast to speak on the issues between Dax Harwood and Shawn Michaels. The AEW Star, Dax, mentioned to Renee Paquette that during the Raw 25 episode, he went to Shawn Michaels for consultation.
Why did Shawn Michaels stab Dax Harwood in his back?
The one half of FTR poured his heart out to Michaels about his torn biceps and him going into depression. Dax Harwood also shared that his wife had brought him out of the dark place. Initially, HBK supported and appreciated him.
But, as soon as Dax met the whole The Kliq gang, including X-Pac, Triple H, Billy Gunn, Road Dogg, and Scott Hall, The Showstopper made a mock of his misery. Jim Cornette was asked about his thoughts on Dax Harwood’s comment.
Jim Cornette replied, “Well, I am not surprised; I mean, that’s what I would have expected to hear because the whole group mentioned except poor Sean Waltman [X-Pac]. He’s like the nicest guy in prison or the babyface member of the f**king terrorist group or whatever.”
“So I say Michaels and his group, So I am talking about the main instigator perpetrators. They treated everybody like it was so childish. It was like they were the high school football jocks in the teen movie that were going around being d**ks to everybody in the locker room when they were grown adults in their 30s at that point.”
What did Michaels do?
The WWE Executive further added that he didn’t understand why Vince McMahon would put up with things from the member of The Kliq. The team Kliq was known to steal spotlights from most other groups in the WWE locker room.
Many people said Shawn Michaels changed since his time away from the company and maybe had found a religion that implies amendments in his character. However, Jim Cornette does not believe the same about The Showstopper.
“When you used to be a d**k, and then you find religion, to me, that invariably means you are a d**k with delusions. You used to be a d**k; you are still a d**k. But, just now, you are a d**k with delusions that they are invisible supreme beings,” Jim Cornette added.
WWE promoter Jim Cornette called out to whole The Kliq group!
WWE legend Jim Cornette had a lot of harsh words to say about Shawn Michaels. But Jim wasn’t only referring to the Heartbreak Kid; he also had the same view about the whole members of The Kliq.
Cornette continued, “Some of the biggest d**ks that you would find in the wrestling business. So I’m not surprised at that statement at all. I just wished that Dax would have known better than to try to have an honest conversation with this goofball when he was near his childish boys’ club treehouse friends.”
