For Michaels to achieve this feat, he had to work the edges of the 1980s and the 2010s, but he still managed to pull it off.

Michaels made his WrestleMania debut in 1989 at WrestleMania V, finding himself bounced around the ring by The Big Boss Man and Akeem at the spry age of 23. Twenty-one years later, Michaels was an elder statesman of the business, getting Tombstoned into retirement by The Undertaker at the age of 44.

It goes without saying that his 15 other WrestleMania matches took place in the 1990s and 2000s, which included a number of show-stealers that earned him the "Mr. WrestleMania" moniker despite his losing record at the event. In Michaels' case, it's always been about topping everyone else with ease, anyhow.
