I’m obviously very pleased to know that these are partnerships that WWE is now open to, and I think that makes for unlimited possibilities.”
Michaels continued, “Now, what the specifics of all of those are as we go into the future, that’ll be decided by people certainly more important than me. For me, getting to be the benefactor of having all these different talents at your utilization is very exciting for us. As we continue to explore those opportunities going forward, I think it’s going to make for some pretty fantastic dream matches that are possible out there that I think a lot of people are going to want to see.”
