Shawn Michaels became the latest WWE legend to become well-acquainted with Randy Orton's boot on last night's RAW, as the reborn 'Legend Killer' pounced upon 'HBK' during his main event segment, hitting the 55-year-old with an RKO before breaking out the punt.

This led to a show-closing brawl with Drew McIntyre, whom Orton faces at SummerSlam 2020 this weekend. It was also a continuation of Randy kicking Ric Flair in the head last week.

Michaels addressed this in his promo, claiming Orton didn't respect the wrestlers who'd paved the way for his own success, getting pretty emotional in the process. Before getting sent to the shadow realm by Orton's punt, Shawn teased a Claymore Kick or Sweet Chin Music ending 'The Viper's' night at SummerSlam.

A clear hint that 'HBK could be involved on Sunday night, though there are currently no reports to that effect, leaving only speculation.

WWE has leaned heavily on legends like Michaels, Flair, and Big Show to try and grab ratings in recent months, so it'll be interesting to see what kind of viewership last night's RAW ended up doing. Shawn's appearance was advertised in advance.
