Last night on RAW, after Shawn Michaels played a little Sweet Chin Music on both Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch, the Nature Boy made his way down to the ring to drop a bombshell on HBK. The 16 times World Champion and one of Michaels' closest friends (he intorduced Flair as the first inductee of the 2008 WWE Hall of Fame class) challenged him to a match at WrestleMania XXIV down in Orlando. Michaels was very apprehensive at first, telling Flair he wouldn't be able to live with himself knowing that he ended the career of the greatest wrestler of all time because the next match Ric loses signals his retirement from professional wrestling. Flair, however, was quick to point out that he wasn't going to WrestleMania to lose and that he would do everything he could to pull out a victory on the "grandest stage of them all." After hearing this, Michaels accepted the challenge, telling Flair it would be an honor. The men shook hands as a sign of mutual respect and left the ring together. This is a very interesting match-up because Flair is fighting for his career and Michaels must wrestle with the thought of potentially ending the career of a man who he's looked up to all of his life and was "the reason he got into this line of business." It's the Showstopper and the Nature Boy. It's WrestleMania XXIV. It should be fun to watch and if anybody is going to end Flair's career, Michaels would be my pick. However, I'm putting my money on Slic' Ric.
