Shawn Michaels to launch official website, Twitter and FB

Reported by Ernest I Aguilar

The Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels taped a video clip announcing his upcoming online presence at theshawnmichaels.com which will be his first and only official page on the Internet. Several websites including Facebook pages were opened in the past claiming to be associated with HBK and last week even WWE wrote on their website that the Facebook page circulating claiming to be of him and his wife Rebecca is not associated with him. Michaels said there are two reasons that he's opening a website - to keep in touch with his fans and to eliminate any doubts of the other fake websites including MySpace, Facebook and Twitter accounts. He also added that all the blogs and tweets and Facebook posts will be done by himself and not anyone else. "This is authentic, this is real, this is me," he said. He then closed off the video saying, "I am Shawn Michaels and I approve this ad!" Funny. Meanwhile WWE.COM confirmed the new - and official - Shawn Michaels Twitter account this morning and added him to the "Alumni" Twitter list on their website. WWE keeps a list of official accounts for their Superstars and Divas to avoid any fans following fake accounts. Shawn's new Twitter account is @ShawnMichaels_ and yes that includes the underscore at the end of the name. You can check out the video below.
