Pro wrestling legend Jim Cornette recently took to an episode of his Jim Cornette Experience podcast, where he discussed a variety of topics such as WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle calling WWE United States Champion Seth "Freakin" Rollins “The Next Shawn Michaels” because they resemble each other as the guy in WWE, but he doesn't know if you can compare the WWE United States Champion to the Hall of Famer in terms of drawing ability and box office.
Jim Cornette said:
“I think he [Kurt Angle] is making the comparison because they resemble each other, in terms of, they were in the guy in WWE at their individual times that was long, lean, and athletic. I don’t know that you can compare Seth with Shawn Michaels in terms of, you know, drawing ability and box office.”
“I mean, Seth is good. But Michaels, the one thing you have to do about the obnoxious little pr*ck that he was, he was nearly the best in the business. Especially at the WWF style of the ’90s.”
