Wrestlemania 24 - Ric Flair vs. Shawn Michaels

This match was built on emotion and was a fine spectacle for Ric Flair’s final appearance as a wrestler. At Wrestlemania 24 in Orlando, the climax of Flair’s retirement angle took place and he chose “Mr. Wrestlemania” to be his final opponent.

Michaels and Flair were great friends outside the ring and their match was undoubtedly the match of the night, in what was a fairly average Wrestlemania. The two exchanged moves, including the famous Ric Flair chops, inciting numerous Woos from the watching audience.

Eventually, Michaels triumphed, uttering the words “I love you” before delivering Sweet Chin Music to the vulnerable Flair. It was a night full of emotion for Flair, while it built into the storyline between Michaels and Chris Jericho for the rest of the year.
