Heartbreak Kid returns with bang

Wrestling's boy toy is back with a bang. Shawn Michaels, The Heartbreak Kid, was introduced as the newest member of the nWo by ringleader Kevin Nash on RAW.
We shouldn't be surprised by this. The Heartbreak Kid always had pizzazz, and WWE is looking to grab back some of its slipping ratings any way it can.
While there has been talk of enticing Scott Steiner, Sting and Goldberg over to the dark side, don't count on it.
Steiner is still wounded and would be a risk, the religious Sting seems content to sit this one out and Goldberg believes he's better than the game. Only a phenomenal amount of money could entice Da Man to once again enter the squared circle. And he certainly hasn't endeared himself to WWE types with his cutting comments towards the sex and violence that drives the current wrestling product.
So bringing back Michaels was not only logical, it was necessary. He rejoins his old clique running mates, Kevin Nash and X-Pac, with another former pal, Triple H, now on the other side, as a fan favourite.
Look for Michaels to make his first appearance behind the microphone tomorrow on RAW.
