5 most memorable title wins of Shawn Michaels

#2 Shawn Michaels wins his first World Heavyweight Championship at Survivor Series 2002

Shawn Michaels retired from WWE in 1998 due to multiple injuries after he dropped the WWE Championship to Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania 14.

The Heartbreak Kid then made a remarkable comeback to the squared circle, starting a feud with his real-life best friend Triple H. Their match at SummerSlam 2002 was spectacular, with Michaels victorious.

At Survivor Series 2002, in the first-ever Elimination Chamber Match, The Game put his World Heavyweight title on the line against five other superstars. Shawn Michaels outperformed Rob Van Dam, Kane, Chris Jericho, and Booker T to pin The Game with Sweet Chin Music as he won his maiden World Heavyweight Championship.

The sight was something special as Michaels celebrated with the Championship. To come back after a hiatus and win the title was a testament to the will, grit, and passion this WWE Hall of Famer demonstrated.

#1 The infamous Iron Man Match at WrestleMania 12

The showdown, which lasted for over an hour against one of the best technical wrestlers in Bret Hart, was indeed the coming-of-age for Shawn Michaels.

Shawn's entrance was a sight to behold as he came down from the top of the arena. Both wrestlers put on a terrific bout as the match started. Despite Bret applying the Sharpshooter, he could not win in the first 60 minutes.

The match then went into sudden death as both the men were exhausted. Michaels somehow pulled Sweet Chin Music out of his repertoire, which was enough to knock Bret out with the 1-2-3.

This iconic moment is etched in our memories as HBK won his first WWE Championship.
