WWE: 8 Great Moments That Took Place On Post WrestleMania RAWs

4. Shawn Michaels Retirement Speech - WrestleMania 26

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i45BsCEJsuo Shawn Michaels faced off against The Undertaker at Wrestlemania 25, and lots of fans believe it was one of the greatest matches in Wrestlemania history. HBK had his moments, and was close to beating The Undertaker. It wasn't his night however, and Undertaker was the winner on this night. Michaels didn't mention the rematch until he won the Slammy Award for the match of the year in 2009, he said during the speech he could beat the streak, and challenged The Undertaker again. Undertaker who was the current World Champion at the time at first rejected the idea of rematch. That was until HBK screwed The Undertaker out of the World Title at Elimination Chamber 2010. The two of them went at it once again at Wrestlemania in match that if Michaels lost he would have to retire similar to Ric Flair 2 years prior. They had another great match at the PPV with Undertaker coming out with the win again, and thus HBK had to retire. The next night on RAW Shawn Michaels gave his emotional retirement speech were he thanked all the people that helped him during his 20+ year career. Michaels ended his speech with the line "ladies and gentleman The Heartbreak Kid has left the building." Unlike Flair's speech 2 year before, the whole roster didn't come out to thank Shawn, just Triple H which made both moments more unique.
