Rob i am trying to find out how you list 5ft 11.5 range. I measured myself at 180.5 cm in the evening. Can you say you list me at 5ft 11.5 Rob?
tony t. says on 2/Feb/12
Michaels can't be 5'11 because 5'11.5 - 5'11.75 cm punk had an inch on michaels when they were teaming together for survivor series 2006. Michaels is more a weak 5'11. 5'10.75
George Fergadiotis says on 2/Feb/12
I can't even imagine Shawn Michaels to be a strong 5ft 11. No way he is 5ft 11,5 or 5ft 11,25. Rob nobody here considers him at that height he is clearly no more than 180cm. Maybe to change him to 5ft 11?
The Ben says on 2/Jan/12
There's a Shawn Michaels Q&A thats just come out Click Here and he looks pretty chunky on it.
Dont know if its just the shirt?
logan noll 1996 says on 30/Dec/11
Michaels is taller than Bret by an inch nowadays, so Michaels is 6 foot and Bret is 5 foot 11.
andy says on 29/Dec/11
Shawns physique was certainly different towards the end of his career. Was nowhere near his billed weight of 225, and as for height Triple H looked to have him by no less than 3 inches so I reckon flat 5'11" sounds about right.
Godred says on 15/Dec/11

I'm wondering if Shawn lost some height. Here he is with Bret about 1992 (enters at 23 sec in) Click Here they look about the same height or HBK could be a bit taller

IMO both bret and michaels were 6' peak, bret can still look 6'today, michaels 5'11 I guess.
Back in the day they were close in height to 6'1 peak roddy piper.
hamd says on 5/Dec/11
hbk is billed at 6.1 as everyone says.....but in his wrestling attire his shoes didnt showed any amount of lifts.....and remember these wrestlers always fight big guys but wen u meet them in person u will come to know how big they are....by the way he looks almost at the same height as vince if u see the hall of fame video (in which vince gives him the ring) while vince is billed at 6.2.........hbk looks the same or an inch shorter so he is well above 6 ft coz u can see he is not wearing big boots but normal flat heels which gives an inch max not more than that.......

And here from recently: Click Here Bret looks to be a bit taller

Footwear perhaps?

I'd say this listing is probably good for HBK, and maybe we was just over 6' at peak
Redeemer says on 20/Nov/11
I would say he's 5'10", maybe 5'10.5".

Chris Jericho is listed as 5'9.5" and here both him and Shawn can be seen as very close heights, almost the same. Shawn however, is wearing cowboy boots which obviously give him a height advantage, but I do think Chris may be wearing lifts.

Also during the Hall of Fame induction of his, Triple H joked about him merely being 5'10" in this video.

Nevertheless, he is one of the greatest entertainers in the squared circle.
Dan90 says on 15/Nov/11
Edge isnt 6'1", I think he is 6'3.5 at least.
Tman says on 15/Nov/11
1,81m peak 1,80m today
Alex says on 14/Nov/11
5'11 peak. 5'10 1/2 today. He's lost minimal height I think
tony t. says on 12/Nov/11
Dolph Ziggler who is 5'11 was a little taller.

that makes angle ~5'9, 2mins 40secs Click Here

Hard to tell the difference there because the cameraangle favours Michaels big time in the close up.

Before the close up Kurt looks to edge Michaels, but Kurt is slightly on his tip toes.

I think 5´10" for Angle and 5´10.5" for Michaels

I´m sure curious about how tall some think vince and bulldog are...

It is 100% obvious that Shawn was taller than Vince in that video. Vince is a lift wearer. That video proves it. I've seen his height vary so much it's ridiculous. It's like Sheamus and HHH. The first time they had a stare down at the Elimination Chamber a few years ago, they looked the same height. Then, a few weeks later, they had another stare down and Sheamus looked a few inches taller...
Vince can look as tall as 6'1" Austin or shorter than 6' Bret and Shawn. Gee..I wonder how that's possible?
the AMAZING Babushka says on 20/Sep/11
Shawn is 6'5" minimum, and about 350 pounds. I met him, he got out of his limo, and then ate his limo driver...
drummer777 says on 8/Sep/11
I think Vince is 5'11 and shawn michaels is 5'9 or 5'10
Red says on 3/Sep/11
I agree with Vegas estimates, can´t see Vince over 6´1" peak, maybe 6´0.75".
Bulldog wasn´t under 5´10" for sure. Henning at 6´1.5" spot on.

Shawn was def. in his magicboots in tuga´s vid.
Vegas says on 2/Sep/11
vince 184cm, shawn 181cm, davey 178cm imo

i doubt smith's boots gave him much advantage over vinces shoes by themselves Click Here curt hennig is in "casuals" in this clip and despite hbk being in wrestling boots hennig is still clearly taller Click Here hennig and 6'3 nfl listed steve jordan for comparison, shows hennig was no more than 186-7cm himself Click Here
tell-em says on 2/Sep/11
hbk and bulldog are in wrestling boots. mcmahon is in casuals. they both have footwear advantage.

Ok Danimal, so that makes vince how tall?
Check the video I posted, full body filmed with live crowd, so no boxes there...

5 ft 11,5 doesn;t really sound good,because he is taller than jericho,jericho is 5 ft 9 from what i lernt,and hbk did't really look to have more than inch on him.So i say 5 ft 10-5 ft 10.5

5 ft 11.5?i think the last time i was it said 5 ft 10.I think he is 5 ft 10-5 ft 10,5

The weights I heard for Bale was about 220 when he first gained all the weight for Batman Begins (not TDK) at which weight he looked pretty bloated for his frame and then shaped it down to about 200 pounds. In The Dark Knight and the next sequel, he is thinner.
Clay says on 8/Aug/11
lol@Christian Bale being 240 lbs in Dark Night...
Marc says on 28/Jul/11
@ andre

Triple H is a strong 6'2 and was always 3 inches or so taller than HBK

Orton was always 2 inches taller than HHH how on earth can Orton be 6'2? he is a strong 6'4 guy

and Rey Misteryo is closer to 5'3 than 5'4 since all 6'2 guys have a feet over him
Vegas says on 28/Jul/11
michaels was nowhere close to 240 at mania 14, i remember powerslam magazine saying at the time if wwf weight limit was legit (225lb minimum) that michaels wouldn't even be able to compete at heavyweight
hassaan says on 22/Jul/11
christian bale in his interview said he went upto 240lbs for the movie dark knight and then brought it down to 225 lbs cos nolan asked him to...so ya michaels in that casket match against the undertaker and at WM14 definitely looked like 240lbs to me

ben, michaels is in wrestling boots there with dibiase, thats the full video of the shots anon posted, certainly not 4 inches in that video and shawns got flat boots on too Click Here

if jericho is 5'8 then mean gene was 5'6 no taller, jericho is also clearly taller next to mike tyson on video and in photos than rob, piper and jericho were roughly same height in 2002 so your 6'2 piper dropped 6 inches or thereabouts before he was 50???

jannetty was not that short, he was just as tall as lance russell in 1985 and shawn was taller than russell, hogan had lance russell by 6 inches at most in 1979

HBK under 6'0 is equal with dibiase under 6'2 as well 5'11 Shawn Click Here Click Here

Pretty sure HBK's wearing cowboy boots and got a mullet on top there, I met them both in 94 on the same day and I'd say 6'3 Dibiase 5'11 HBK.
I know there doesn't look like that much in it but anyone who's met both in person will probably agree.

Ok, so I've long said that Rock described hbk in his book as 5' 10 195 lbs. Last night on the wwe hall of fame triple h made a joke about his size and said he was 6' 0 225 lbs and laughed and said more like 5' 10 185 lbs. I don't believe he was ever over 5' 11.

And him and Bret Hart WERE the same height at their peak... I always wondered how tall Marty Jannety was? HBK always had a good 2-3" on him I think.. Probably same height as Chris Benoit, Chris Jericho, Owen Hart.. ALL 5'8"....

HBK looks 185lbs max today! Even when he was more built he wasn't a real big guy. Some people are bigger than others at the exact same body weight.

He did look 185 MAX last night on RAW.
Big Mike says on 24/Mar/11
I could probably say no to this I heard Chris Jericho was 5ft11 even though he looks 5ft9 on screen ina pic of Shawn and Jericho at I think Wrestlmania I think in 2002 or sumthin Shawn had a good 2 inches on him and WWE always had Sahwn at 6ft or 6ft1 most of the time he looks mad short on TV cause he's always fighting bigger guys in real life he's probably considered a giant to most people
Ales says on 8/Mar/11
Michaels is nowhere near 5ft 10. He a legit 6ft guy. The so called ''smaller'' wrestlers like Bret Hart, Austin etc. look small beacuse most of the time they're up against 6ft5/6ft 6 monsters. In reality they're tall guys.

Khali has lost mass since his debut in 2006, I noticed that even before the real weight was ''exposed''. Though I really doubt Batista was ever 370 ibs, lol.
Vegas says on 16/Dec/10
like someone else said on here not that long ago, they are not going to give someone the title "largest athlete in the world" and then underbill him :D here is another from november where he is given 440 Click Here

440 for him now and 400 when he returned seems right, what happens on wwe tv is kayfabe but the info they send out to shareholders and the stockmarket is more legit, he doesn't look 130lb bigger than khali atm, a few of us suspected khalis real weight was around 360 because he didn't look that much bigger mass wise than shaq, of course a 355 khali means most wrestling billed weights are up for discussion, its obvious taker was never 335 and hogan was never 350 like one or two on here claim he was at one time
Clay says on 14/Dec/10
Vegas - with you on the height loss thing.

As for his weight, you gotta remember he was billed at exactly 500 ibs for the longest time, when he came back in early 2008 he claimed to have lost 100 pounds (which he did) so they now billed him at 399. Only problem is he was well north of 500 pounds in late 2006, and when he lost 100 he got down to 440. The weigh in with Mayweather was NOT fake.
Vegas says on 13/Dec/10
derek thats 2003 Click Here
wight was never as tall as someone like kareem here next to nash in 1994 Click Here
Vegas says on 13/Dec/10
last time i watched sd they described him as 440 and that was a few weeks ago, same week i met wight, described as 441 Click Here

when i was in orlando for wm24, they had full size cardboard cutouts of wight and mayweather back to back and his stats on those were 7ft 399lb, still not convinced the weigh in was real, even wwe corporate were listing wight at 399 around wm24 time and sent out press releases to their shareholders describing him at that weight

like i said clay if he has lost height its between 1995-2000 because i have a shot (its on video) of him and me from august 2001 and its the exact same as that recent photo, he has me by exactly a full head
Derek says on 12/Dec/10
In 1997-1998, Show was 2-3 inches taller than Kevin Nash. He was also clearly shorter than Shaquille O'Neal.
Clay says on 12/Dec/10
Vegas, they bill him at 485 now and he does look chunkier since his fight with FLoyd Mayweather when he was 440 ibs. Danimal is right, though I dont think the guy has gone from 7'1'' to barely 6'1'' today.

More like 7'0-7'0 and change to 6'11 and change today IMO.
Vegas says on 12/Dec/10
if wight lost height he lost it between 95 and 2000, he sure hasn't lost anything since during the timeframe i have met him (2001-2010)

i doubt he is 485 now either, i met him only last month, more like 440 now which is what they are billing him at on tv too
Danimal says on 12/Dec/10
Clay says on 11/Dec/10
Ok well you just proved you have no idea what you're talking about. Big Show was MUCH leaner and muscular in his WCW days and the first year or so with WWF. He was around 420-430 pounds at this time, at his heaviest he was 525-540 pounds of FAT.

When he first showed up in WCW in 1995 he was somewhere between 370-390 pounds. By 1998 he put on a lot of weight (claiming to have gone up to 500-505 pounds). He entered the WWF in 1999 at 420-430 pounds. At his heaviest he got up to a morbidly obese 550 pounds. He then lost 109 pounds and came back to wrestling at 441 pounds. Last I heard he's around 485 pounds now... As for his height, he's lost quite a bit in the last 15+ years...
Clay says on 11/Dec/10
Ok well you just proved you have no idea what you're talking about. Big Show was MUCH leaner and muscular in his WCW days and the first year or so with WWF. He was around 420-430 pounds at this time, at his heaviest he was 525-540 pounds of FAT.
The Ben says on 10/Dec/10
Big Show wasnt always fat at all, He was in good shape when he first entered WCW with defenition in his quads and a slim waist.

240 and 6ft just isnt that big, there are plenty of guys who weigh that who you wouldn't even give a second look at.

If HBK "On steroids" was 200 lbs lean with 20% bodyfat he would be 240 lbs.
You guys are a cting like 240 is huge!
It is if you look at a peak Arnie but look at Russell Crowe or Denzel Washington fat and i bet they where pushing 240.

Gordon Ramsey has said that he weighed 240 a year or 2 ago and i'm pretty sure a peak weight HBK would look bigger than that.
Vegas says on 10/Dec/10
here is michaels in one of his first matches being billed 240 (more than vince ever billed him as far as i am aware), looks nowhere near 240 here either Click Here

as for michaels he partied just as much jannetty as he did with the clique, jannetty was a wildman and the rockers got fired for their excessive partying first time around circa 1987 but ended up being rehired over a year later

danimal, fat is less dense than muscle. there for, a fat man weighs less than a muscilan man. muscles are approximately 25 - 33% more dense than fat. if michaels was fat than he was even less that 220 at that time. your all theory is based on a hugh mistake. and Frankly, I do not think you weighted 230lbs of muscles. if you did, than you would know that partying every night only leads to loosing weight and not gaining it. unless your are one of those beached whales.

What was that?

Buddy - you're right, muscle weighs more than fat but fat adds up in the body at lot quicker and easier than muscle, lol. Notice when Big Show was at his most ''muscular'' he was ABOUT ONE HUINDRED POUNDS lighter than when he was at his fattest?

he is much smaller in real life than on tv. there is no way that this guy was 240lbs. it's impossible. when jouko ahola won his first WSM title, he was only 270lbs. you want to tell me that there was only 30lbs between ahola and michaels. in your dreams maybe. same goes for mariusz pudzianowski in his first win. did you see how this guys look?

Im not saying he was 240-250 at one time (unless am I missing something...did he get really fat in the early 90's?), whats laughable is you saying you looked like SHawn Michaels of today when you were 16...

Yes, he got severely fat (thanks to partying with Scott Hall and Kevin Nash every night in 1993/1994, drinking beer and eating pizza.. I will try and find some vids of him with a HUGE gut/legs... He was so self conscious that he would wear his tights above his belly button to conceal his huge midsection. I have on doubt believing a solid 5'11" guy got up to 240-250 pounds, considering he also had muscle with that fat.. I was 230 pounds last year and wasn't as big as HBK at that time and he's at least 1" taller than me...

rob terry is billed 260 in tna, he is about 5 inches taller than hbk Click Here Click Here

hamd, what are you trying to prove with this video? michaels looks like a 180-190lbs guy tops in this video. i looked like that when i was 16, and i was only 175lbs back then.

WHatever you say....
The Ben says on 7/Dec/10
I met michaels in summer 94 and he looked around 230 to me.

It hard when the man himself says he was 240+, i dont know what other evidence you can apart from him getting on scales in front of you.
190-200 today, 240 when he was fat, 230 in general.
Vegas says on 7/Dec/10
recent interview with shane helms, in it he claims michaels was the biggest steriod user in the wwe, thats hard to believe when the likes of warrior, warlord, luger, batista et al have passed through the door Click Here

1993 was a full year and it was towards the end before he left that he bulked up most.
Quite a coincidence that the wrestling observer newsletter that was posted yesterday from 1993 had a bit about Michaels walking out while IC champ in 93, They said it was because shoot steroid testing came in and HBK gained lots of weight and bodyfat, they say he was 240 and struggling with weight so he left.

I like to think im pretty knowledgable when it comes to drugs in wrestling but i always thought HBK didnt take steroids apart from his last match against austin at wrestlemania when his back was shot yet he was in fantastic shape.

In the last day i've read that he took them in the observer and Vegas as well.... Thats why i love celeb heights, you learn something new every day.

250 was a very generous estimate for HBK but i can realistically see 240 no problem.
Vegas says on 6/Dec/10
the ben, shawn admitted to taking steriods in the 1990s too

hbk was never fat, this is mid 1993, he looks in great shape, he was billed 237 in 1993-94 and marty was billed 235 (neither man was near those numbers though) Click Here shawn doesn't have anywhere near enough muscle mass or fat on his body there to get to 250, when you consider ben roethlisberger is ~250 @ legit 6'5, he looked quite big on raw, bigger than shawn ever looked

i last met shawn up close in 2002, he looked 200+ but hard to pin down exactly
The Ben says on 5/Dec/10
jacky says on 5/Dec/10
there is no way that michaels was ever 250lbs. davey boy smith was only 270 in his peak, and there is a huge difference between them. michaels was like half his size.

Davey boy was all water retention and steroids, so hard to guess someone on steroids weight, 270 seems to have been his peak.

HBK was and inch taller and had "maybe" a naturally bigger frame, In 93 HBK had a gut and fat ass, If he was 230ish in 91 he could easily have been carrying and extra 20 lbs of fat.
HBK's full body was bigger.

You cant compare a natural 250 to steroid 250, the body shape and composition is totally different.
There are plenty of 6ft guys who weigh 250 and just look like regular guys.
The Ben says on 5/Dec/10
Danimal is right, HBK was fat in 93 and could have been as heavy as 250.
Ask a regular 6ft 40 yr old heavily built guy what he weighs and you'd be shocked.

I met HBK in late 94 and he looked 230ish, much bigger than my 210 lb friend.

I've no idea what HBK weighs today, at a guess around 190.
I'm 6ft and 190 at the moment and I look pretty skinny, HBK looks bigger than me.
Vegas says on 5/Dec/10
danimal you are suggesting shawn is as big as cena here (240), interesting to hear monsoon describe nash as "well over 7ft", well he did think he was 6'6 himself :D Click Here

if shawn said he got up to 250 he is lying, ~250 is bobby lashleys weight and lashley is taller than michaels by about 2 inches, no way michaels ever looked as big as lashley Click Here
Alex says on 5/Dec/10
Clay, he claimed 182lbs in 2009. Maybe gained weight back since then. HBK is a good shape but hes never come across as a very big guy. You could be the same weight as HBK.
Clay says on 4/Dec/10
I agree with 190-195 today, at least the last days he was on TV in 2008-2009. He may have lost even more mass in the last year.

Shawn in the early 1990's (1993-1994) claimed to have gone up to 250 pounds. I can post vids of him against Razor Ramone and he was FAT (huge stomach and big legs)... He shed a lot of that weight and kept leaning down from then on... I believe his weight did go up to 225-240 pounds and today I'd give him about 190-195 pounds...
Vegas says on 3/Dec/10
he claimed to be 200lb on wwe tv in 2009 but i agree with clay there is no way he lost 50-60lb, that would be hugely noticeable
Clay says on 3/Dec/10
He said 182 ibs today?? Man I cant come to grips that I would be the same weight as him and 2 inches shorter, though he is leaner than I am but still my BF% cant be more than 12.
Clay says on 2/Dec/10
Yeah, he hasnt lost 40 or 50 pounds of muscle like some people on here claim lol.
Alex says on 1/Dec/10
HBK looked as low as 180lbs last I seen him. I also read he claimed 182lbs last year. He hasn't been 190lbs or more in a few years at least. Looked to be around 195-200 in 2000-2002. At his peak he looked 210.
Sam Rick says on 24/Nov/10
184cm(6'0.5) and 234lbs at his prime at 1992.2010 181cm(5'11) and 210lbs.This is the most accurate I can be.
Clay says on 21/Nov/10
Derek - indeed. He was around 190 from 2008-2009.
whats-ru says on 18/Nov/10
Some unofficial website billed him at 6'2", 255lbs, but looking at him on TV, he's somewhere between 5'11"-6', probably weighing a little less than 220lbs
Derek says on 18/Nov/10
160-175? I'm 165 at 6'1 1/2"-3'4". Shawn has a good 20 pounds on me.
Danimal says on 17/Nov/10
hamd says on 17/Nov/10
no he is 6.1 and more than 220 ps

No, that was his BILLED height. He was a legit 5'11" and is now shorter today (around 5'10")...
hamd says on 17/Nov/10
no he is 6.1 and more than 220 ps
Clay says on 17/Nov/10
Absolutely no chance he is 160 to 175, haha.
tiago says on 15/Nov/10
this guy today looks 160 to 205lbs but he looks more like 180lbs

because he looks tiny but its possible that is 205lbs

and is height is 5ft10 today(178-180cm) at is best was 5ft11(181cm,182cm)not 6ft our 6ft1

wheight 205lbs at is best

some people say he was at is best 220lbs to 245lbs is that true?
he was buff when 1988 to 1992 but 185lbs not 240lbs
1993 to 1997 he lost a bit but looks more vascular and muscular maby 205lbs to 221lbs
2000 to 2010 maby 205lbs at best but maby a good 180lbs to 185lbs
at is worst 175lbs to 160lbs with the big guns^^
Clay says on 10/Nov/10
Havent seen him on tv for a while but Michaels looked 190 pound range in 2009.
dead_rabbit says on 8/Nov/10
I was on the same flight as SM a couple of weeks ago. He walked right past me as he was able to board before I was. I'm 6'3" and he looked small to me. IMHO, he isn't more than 5'10" and probably 175#. When I saw him, I thought it was him, but he looked so small. He was even wearing a sleeveless shirt, but wasn't impressing anyone with his pipes. He had a little mini entourage with him (one camera guy, and three buddies), otherwise I probably wouldn't have even have given him a second look, thinking he was some dufus that should probably start wearing shirts with sleeves on them.

Also, a question. Is it possible for someone to shrink upto 3/4 of an inch throughout the day?? I measure about 5'10.25 first thing in the morn and by the end of the day i'm down to 5'9.5.

Totally possible. Especially if you do a lot of physical work or exercise, you may find that you lose more height during the day.
sskhan says on 29/Oct/10
shawn looks considerably smaller than 6'2 triple h. He's definitely not a 6 footer. 5'11 max for this guy. Also, a question. Is it possible for someone to shrink upto 3/4 of an inch throughout the day?? I measure about 5'10.25 first thing in the morn and by the end of the day i'm down to 5'9.5.
hs2010 says on 24/Oct/10
This picture from 2005 shows that Shawn clearly has a full inch over Kurt Angle: Click Here
Both are wearing wrestling boots (this was the year before Kurt started wearing amateur wrestling shoes) so no footwear advantage either way.

Also, Shawn (in wrestling boots, NOT cowboy boots) with Ric Flair (in dress shoes) in 2008: Click Here

There's no way that Shawn is under 5'11"-5'11.25" today IMHO.
