According to a report from Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select (subscribe here), Shawn Michaels was involved in a heated argument before NXT Takeover: In Your House.
The report says that Shawn got into a heated backstage debate with a WWE producer before the show. This argument had to do with racism in America.
Here is what Sapp wrote about what happened:
Shawn Michaels was in a heated debate at NXT Takeover In Your House ahead of the show. Michaels was discussing the current social climate with another producer, when said producer mentioned that everyone already gets treated the same.
This didn’t sit well with Michaels, we’re told, who broke down systematic prejudice and inequality to the persona in a very heated discussion.
It was also noted that Michaels was angry but stayed professional. The NXT locker room didn’t find out details until the next day, so it sounds like this wasn’t done in front of a lot of people.
