Shawn Michaels already has given his retirement date

[badreligion]

listened to Shawn Michaels on Kiss Rocks out of San Antonio on Friday. He talked about WrestleMania and admitted thinking that Undertaker's WrestleMania streak being broken at "Mr.WrestleMania" would be cool.

The big news he gave was that he has already given the office the date he is going to be walking away. Shawn never said the word retiring but that is what it was suggesting.

He said he's been approached about acting. He also noted that his kids doing fine, Rebecca starting up her own business, and he has plans for what he will do after WWE. He said he will be with the WWE in some form always and suggested that he would still do PR work. I found it more telling of how different he is from his hero Ric Flair was this year in the sense of peace of walking away.

Powell's POV: HBK said he came back to WWE with the intention o working one match. "That was about six years ago," he laughed. He specifically mentioned that Undertaker's streak vs. Mr. WrestleMania has to happen sooner or later, so it sounds like that match will take place at WrestleMania 25.

Wrestlers have a history of retiring then returning and so on and so forth.

Shawn Michaels is about as believable as Hulk Hogan.

As for breaking the "unbeaten" streak of the Undertaker, keeping dreaming🙄

'Taker will retire unbeaten at Wrestlemania simply because he deserves to. That's not to say Michaels won't give a hell of a performance though.

It will be a sad day when HBK retires. One of the greatest wrestlers ever. No doubt about it.

It'll be sad seeing them both retire. The retirements of HBK, Undertaker and HHH will pretty much take away the little that remains from the Attitude Era.

I hope that Austin is the guest referee if the Michaels/'Taker match takes place at WM25.
