1995 WWE Plans Changed Due To Nightclub Brawl Involving Shawn Michaels
Shawn Michaels had plans changed due to a drunken fight with fellow roster members.
In October 1995, following a house event in Syracuse, New York, Michaels went out drinking at a club, as Bruce Pritchard recounted on his Something To Wrestle podcast. Michaels allegedly flirted with a lady who was related in some way to another patron at the club while traveling with fellow Kliq member Sean “1-2-3 Kid” Waltman and “The British Bulldog” Davey Boy Smith, whom he wrestled that night. With all three men inebriated and Michaels apparently uncomfortable pursuing the lady, the bouncer asked his girlfriend to bring the wrestlers back to their hotel.
On the podcast, Bruce Pritchard continued to elaborate on what happened with Shawn Michaels on that fateful night in October 1995. Donna Jones, the girlfriend of one of the club’s bouncers, was requested to drive Michaels, Sean Waltman, and Davey Boy Smith home. Multiple men allegedly dragged Michaels out of the front seat of the car when he fell asleep on the way back.
