Shawn Michaels is one of the greatest names to ever step inside the squared circle. HBK debuted in World Wrestling Entertainment in 1987 and made a huge name by winning several titles, including the World Heavyweight Championship.

The Heartbreak Kid last competed inside the squared circle at Crown Jewel on November 2, 2018, where he teamed up with Triple H to defeat The Undertaker and Kane. However, Michaels is still a part of the Stamford-based promotion as he is currently the Senior Vice President of Talent Development and Creative in NXT.

"You know who I talked to [at NXT] last week, who said he’s got one or two matches left in him? Shawn Michaels. Yeah, and that’s a guy, he’s the reason why I got into the business. So honestly, it’d probably never happen, but that would be my dream match," he said. [H/T Fightful]
