10 Wrestlers who would make a better final opponent for Kurt Angle instead of Baron Corbin

#8 Shawn Michaels

Shawn Michaels, the Heart Break Kid, is officially retired from in-ring competition, but he has returned to the ring when the event is big enough to coax him out of his comfortable lifestyle in Texas, such as Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia.

Shawn Michaels has also said that he doesn't want to wrestle against youngsters, but people in his own age bracket. Well, Kurt Angle certainly fits that bill. Because Angle's career coincided with a long retirement by HBK, the two men never really had a satisfying encounter between the ropes.

What more fitting of an opponent for Angle's final match than the man who retired the Nature Boy Ric Flair, and a grand slam champion who has left an indelible mark on sports entertainment? It would be hard to find a reason to decree HBK unworthy of the honour of being Angle's final opponent ever.
