[1998-12-28-WWF-Raw] Vince McMahon and Shawn Michaels

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Vince calls Shawn out, as promised, to fire him. Vince shows a clip of Shawn cutting a scathing promo on Vince in the WM build and recaps Shawn laughing at Shane last week. He wraps up by saying Vince McMahon doesn't lay down for anyone, then tells him he's fired as commissioner. Shawn ends up superkicking him and dancing on him, turning babyface in the process. He just turned heel a month ago! And did they think Shawn was returning to the ring at this point? He's getting a lot of focus.

Vince fires Shawn and gets SCM as a result. This kind of sucks as I have enjoyed heel Shawn and this feels way too soon to switch.

Yeah, this is really out of nowhere and not explained well at all. *Why* was Shawn holding the Corporation back? It doesn't matter, all that matters is that we got swerved. I'll make another sarcastic crack about how this is apparently building to Shawn vs. Vince and then I'll try to stop, because it's a useless thing to be complaining about now. Matches no longer matter and building to them matters even less.
