WWE fans might remember that CM Punk used to call himself “the best in the world”. He feels that Michaels being the greatest worker is just an opinion and not a fact. Punk took to Twitter to show his disagreement.

The 16-time WWE World Champion, Ric Flair was retired by Shawn Michaels. Flair said that it was Michaels who carried his entire farewell match and made it a really memorable moment in his career.

“It’s not arguable anymore, Shawn is the greatest worker in the history of our business…He carried me in my farewell retirement match, no matter how many people want to think I was holding up my end of it, I was trying to get through it. At that point in my career I did not have the self-confidence that I needed to have to rise to the occasion and he made it look like I did.”

Flair will be appearing on the upcoming WWE Raw Legend’s Night. Many WWE legends including Hulk Hogan, The Big Show, Carlito among others will be appearing too. The episode will also feature a WWE Championship match between Drew McIntyre and Keith Lee.
