#1 Shawn Michaels - 2002
The 'Heart Break Kid' Shawn Michaels was one of the greatest wrestlers of the 90's. Sadly, due to a serious back injury, HBK's career seemingly came to an end in 1998, wrestling his 'last match' at WrestleMania 14 with Stone Cold Steve Austin.

After some sporadic appearance over the next two years, Shawn Michaels returned to WWE TV as a permanent character in 2002, joining the nWo.
It was then that he toyed around with the idea of wrestling one or two more matches. With his back pretty much healed, he would return for a match at SummerSlam with Triple H, and they blew the roof off the building with a five-star classic.
He was convinced to have a few more matches that would see him become World Heavyweight Champion at Survivor Series, and wrestle Rob Van Dam on RAW before dropping the title back to Triple H at Armageddon.
From here, HBK was offered a huge contract to return full-time and suddenly toying around the idea of one more match turned into almost seven years of full-time wrestling and having even better matches than he did in the 90's.
Shawn Michaels returning to WWE in 2002 was the ultimate comeback story and I don't know if it will ever be topped.
