Kevin Nash was able to work with Shawn Michaels both before and after HBK’s return in 2002 and has spoken about just how different his Kliq ally was.

After suffering a serious back injury in 1998, Michaels retired for four years, during which time he would find religion and overcome his issues with substance abuse.

Speaking on the latest “Kliq This,” Nash spoke about how different Shawn became after these changes to his life. He said,

“It’s not even the same human being that lives on the planet right now.

“When he came back, I think that that was a completely different Shawn Michaels. I think that he thought that his dream had been basically cut short. And on top of all that, a lot of those years that he didn’t participate were big money years in the industry.”

Michaels would continue to wrestle for WWE until retiring on his own terms in 2010 after a loss to The Undertaker at WrestleMania 26.

Both Michaels and Nash have since been inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame twice.
