In a turn of events, WWE is apparently working towards a lovely--and that's a word I rarely use to describe WWE matches--match at Wrestlemania's 25th anniversary. In a move highlighted by fan support, WWE is pulling together two of the well received veterans--Michael Shawn Hickenbottom ("HBK" Shawn Michaels) and Mark William Calloway ("The Phenom" The Undertaker)--and are pitting them against each other for the 25th anniversary of the granddaddy of 'em all.
This hopefully, will turn out to be a brilliant match-up, with twists and turns--as well as possible involvement from Undertaker's kayfabe half-brother Kane and the returning long-time confidant and manager, Paul Bearer--even if it all ends with the cliche end of having Undertaker retain the infamous streak in a victory over the self-professed Mr. Wrestlemania.
In the end, supposed storyline rumors dictate that both "HBK" and "The Phenom" are getting ready to retire and so, having them finally face off in a big pay-per-view match at the superbowl of pro wrestling just before that happens is sure to be a office-smashing ticket-seller. As a fan of both, I could honestly say that this is a match that's been long-awaited and that as such, I will most definately see the PPV for this match alone, if not for any other match on the card.
It's the perfect storyline: Two native Texans & the two best Wrestlemania performers who've remained loyal to the business being ready to retire, but having their last match against each other to decide who's best. The point is that The Man With The UNDEFEATED streak has NEVER beaten MR Wrestlemania one on one & in my aformentioned perfect scenerio...wherein "HBK" hits Sweet Chin Music, but 'Taker wins only to disappear in the end...he does NOT have to, as both retire gracefully, with Undertaker returning to Death Valley for the final time & "HBK" leaving to standing ovation.
