At the 25th sports entertainment extravaganza known as WrestleMania, 'The Heartbreak Kid' Shawn Michaels challenged The Undertaker for the chance to end 'Taker's undefeated streak at the annual pay-per-view. With so much history between the two veterans, going back over a decade, this match was bound to be an important landmark in the annals of WWE history.

And it absolutely was. Michaels and The Undertaker put on a 30-minute show-stealing performance rife with so many twists and turns that the crowd response was almost deafening.

Though Michaels was extremely resilient, kicking out of a Tombstone Piledriver and Last Ride powerbomb, The Undertaker was all the more tenacious. He withstood several Sweet Chin Music superkicks and finally brought the match to its inevitable conclusion by perfectly countering Michaels' attempt at a top rope moonsault for one final Tombstone.
