When DX reformed back in 2006, Shawn Michaels had to veto a whole load of material that Vince wanted them to do because he had become a born again Christian in his time away from wrestling ('98-'02) and wasn't comfortable with the stuff they wanted him to do. He said he had to say no to a lot of the t-shirt designs they wanted to go for because he said they were "graphic".

Hulk Hogan pretty much decided what he was or wasn't going to do for pretty much his entire professional career.

Which really makes Shawn quite hypocritical if you think about it after he did the Vince/God angle. Why say yes to that then just a few months later veto DX stuff?

I imagine it would have been different in that situation because the Vince/God angle never at any point mocked God, it just made Vince out to look more and more evil and it made Shawn look like an even stronger willed fighter for having a faith he's willing to endure pain for. Whereas, with the DX stuff, it would have been HBK endorsing sophmoric and vulgar material that was contradictory to what the Bible says a Christian should be doing.

I don't know, but I imagine that's the justification he would give.
