15 Greatest Matches in WWE WrestleMania history: Part I (15 to 11)

#14 Ric Flair vs Shawn Michaels, WrestleMania 24

HBK with a Moonsault on Flair!

Speaking of retirement matches, this match will live on in history forever, as we saw one of the greatest ever have to hang up his boots and walk away from WWE.

Going into this feud, Shawn Michaels didn’t want to do this, but Flair wanted him to be the one to put it to an end, which shows how much Flair respected Shawn Michaels.

This match truly showed the heart that both men have, especially Ric Flair, as he kept up with HBK, and gave him all that he had.

Shawn Michaels had multiple chances to end Flair, but couldn’t because he didn’t want the match or Flair’s career to be over, so Flair took advantage of the situation, and almost cost Michaels the match.

The best part of this match was the final “scene” between both competitors, where Shawn Michaels superkicks Flair, not once but twice, and mutters the words, “I’m sorry. I love you”, and as he is about to put Flair away, you can see Flair mouthing the words, “Come on!” which was storytelling at it’s finest.
