Should HBK retire?
Thursday, April 5, 2007
Wrestlemania is over. The Heart Break Kid did not win. The Showstoppa has not had a very good year even in 2006. His constant feuds with Vince McMahon cost him many matches. He did very well in the royal rumble but the undertaker was able to outdo him. So the question as always, should Mr. Wrestlemania retire?
Professional wrestling is not a game like cricket where if one retires, youngsters get a chance. Shawn Michaels is my favourite wrestler ever. Whether he wins matches or not, he will always be my favourite. I do want him to win but what I like the most is that he never loses without giving a fight. That resilience he has showed in the past 20 years is something that can only eb watched and not described. He is the very first winner of the Ladder Match, Elimination Chamber Match, Hell In a Cell and many other types of matches. It is surprising that he is only a four time champion unlike Ric Flair(16) and HHH(10).
Even today, HBK is one of the most decorated and celebrated stars in the WWE. He has overcome all odds. Right from his first stint as one half of the Rockers to his current run with DX, he has never failed to impress. He has an impeccable style of wrestling. He is the only wrestler to have won a royal rumble on 2 consecutive occasions and also the first one to win it coming in at no.1 .
Now I strongly believe that he should not retire. He has survived a serious back injury which kept him out of wrestling for about 4 years. Mike Tyson and Stone Cold Steve Austin can be responsible for cutting HBK's career in half. After that HBK was out for 6 months after a brutal hammer shot to the limbs by real life best friend HHH. HBK, I still feel, has a lot to offer to his fans. It really hurt to notice that even his fan clubs were kind of not happy with his performance. So, we just have to patiently wait. HBK's sure to bounce back.

I really respect HBK and appreciate his work as a wrestler but strongly i feel he should retire.
It's not that he can no more be what he used to be but his days done and needs a better life now.
But he is really great and the way he has earned respect is really somethign which no other wrestler can do.
Good luck to him.
