Chris Jericho admitted that he emulated Michaels early in his career. Michaels' chaps and tights come in many different colors such as red, black, and white which are made by "The Legend," Kevin Allen. Michaels' cousin, Matt Bentley, is also a wrestler. Michaels is ambidextrous, and uses his right hand to draw/color and his left hand to write. Michaels is the only wrestler in WWE history to simultaneously hold the WWF European Championship and the WWF Championship. Michaels competed in the first ever Ladder Match in WWE history, losing to Bret Hart with the WWF Intercontinental Championship on the line on July 21, 1992, during a WWF Wrestling Challenge taping. In addition, of his eleven title reigns, he has actually only lost five of them in a match, only four of which were real contests. He has forfeited one WWF Championship and one Intercontinental Championship, was stripped of one Intercontinental Championship, forfeited or was stripped of all of his Tag Team Championships, and lost his European Championship by just laying down for friend and teammate Triple H (Michaels was the WWF Champion at the time and hence "gave" the lesser European title to Triple H). Michaels is a born again Christian. Michaels has been in every WWE Elimination Chamber (being special referee in the third one). While the #1 draw would appear to be the worst possible number of entry in a Royal Rumble,Shawn Michaels in 1995, and Chris Benoit in 2004 overcame the odds and entered the ring first and won the Royal Rumble. Shawn Michaels is disliked in Canada (especially in Montreal), due to the Montreal Screwjob.
