HBK vs. Cena: the Match



April 1, 2007, at Wrestlemania 23, two of WWE's most powerful forces meet, in Shawn Michaels the Heartbreak Kid vs current WWE Champion John Cena. This should provide for 1 entertaining match featuring two differing styles and 2 overall great wrestling talents..

Michaels has been an icon, a showstopper and a legend for years now, holding the WWE title several times during his storied career. He has also most recently been a part of the newly formed "D-Generation X" with partner in crime, Triple H. Representing DX, Michaels was one of the final two competitors in the Royal Rumble, until he met up with another legend, the Undertaker!

Despite placing 2nd at the Rumble, Michaels put his name in the hat for a Wrestlemania title shot, and won a triple threat match on RAW against Rated RKO to earn the title shot. This will be an epic match at Wrestlemania! Cena has held the title several times now in the past several years, after losing it to Edge, RVD and regaining it. Cena is a perennial fan favorite and displays an intense power and energy in the ring that is hard to combat. Cena looks to defend his title as he has done against the likes of Umaga and Edge now for many months..However he has yet to battle a true legend such as his current tag team title partner, Shawn Michaels..

My pick for this match as of now is Shawn Michaels. We have seen the trend in WWE history, where both the big titles change hands at Wrestlemania. That would make it seem perfect for HBK to reclaim this glory, just a few months before he sees the return of his Champion partner, Triple H. It's hard to believe that Triple H is not at Wrestlemania, but had he been around, I believe we would see DX as tag champs right now. Instead, Michaels will capture the title, and cause a bit of a rift with his partner and friend, HHH once he returns back..

The countdown is on to April 1, 2007!
