By the time WrestleMania 26 was on the horizon, Shawn Michaels began showing signs of obsessiveness and asked The Undertaker to give him another chance at a match at the Grandest Stage Of Them All.

The Deadman had already beaten Shawn at WrestleMania's 25th Anniversary and declined Shawn's request. A dejected Michaels cost The Undertaker his World title, leading to a match at WrestleMania 26.

The match closed the show as two of the greatest superstars in WWE history went at it for almost 30 minutes. After a gruelling battle, The Undertaker got the best of HBK again and won the match.

As The Undertaker left the ring, the sea of 70,000 fans stood on their feet and cheered for the greatest performer in WrestleMania history. Shawn thanked the fans one last time and headed backstage in one of the most heartwarming visuals in the history of WrestleMania.
