— WWE Hall of Famer Jimmy Hart spoke with Bill Hanstock of SB
Nation to promote the WWE SummerSlam pay-per-view. Hart
discussed Shawn Michaels and his “Sexy Boy” theme song:
“Probably ‘Sexy Boy,’ [for] Shawn Michaels, doing that. Because he’s
always kept it alive. [Michaels] told me a story. When he took time off [in
1998] and then came back [in 2002], [WWE asked him], ‘Hey, do you want to change
your music and do heavier?’ And he said, ‘No. I came in with this song and I
want to go out with it.’ So that was an honor for us. It’s still one of the most
played songs around. It just lasted ever since [Shawn started his singles
career].”
— As of this writing, there is no WWE SummerSlam post-show planned for later
tonight. WWE SummerSlam “Backstage Pass” will air on Monday night after RAW goes
off the air. The synopsis reads:
“Revisit the historic night that was SummerSlam, including never
before seen backstage footage from the biggest party of the
summer!”
