Shawn Michaels is yet another Superstar who ended up in Randy Orton's crosshairs and while the two weren't on amicable terms when the attack happened, it was still a betrayal. In fact, with Shawn Michaels and Randy Orton both friends of Triple H, Orton's attack on Michaels on Monday Night RAW was especially malicious.

Interestingly enough, Michaels seemed to give Orton a stark warning before being RKO'd at the end of his promo, which points to him possibly being involved in the match at SummerSlam. Either that or WWE is trying to set fans up for a swerve, but why would HBK promise to hit Randy Orton with a Sweet Chin Music and not follow up?

In the end, Shawn Michaels and Ric Flair have always been good friends and that's why HBK is likely to show up at SummerSlam. Of course he will have to overcome the effects of Monday's RKO and a vicious punt to the head in order to do so, but Michaels has recovered from worse in order to make the save.
