Update on WZ Exclusive: HBK’s New TV Show Announced

June 12, 2011

WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels spent the week hunting bear in the wilds of Canada, and reportedly couldn’t be happier.

According to a photo and story posted in a Canadian newspaper, HBK was shooting "Shawn Michaels’ MacMillian River Adventures" for a cable network. WrestleZone was the first to report Shawn was shopping around a hunting show to cable networks earlier this year.

Shawn was in Canada to hunt bear under the wing of local hunting guide Mike Roy of Bear Paw Outfitters and alongside fellow hunter and friend Keith Mark.

"One of the things I love doing is getting out and hunting. My family and I live almost exclusively on wild game. It serves two things, it feeds the family and it lets me get out of everybody’s hair at the house and get out and do something I enjoy with my buddies," said Michaels in a local interview in Canada.

Michaels and his posse shot more than bears during their stay, as they also filmed for their upcoming show called "Shawn Michaels’ MacMillan River Adventures" which premieres June 28th on the Outdoor Channel.

"…It’s more of an outdoor lifestyle show. We’re just two guys who have families who live an outdoor lifestyle so some of that will be captured on film," said Michaels.
