All four of the above mentioned moments were just for fun at its core. However, the current entry is all about backstage politics and the response to it. Hulk Hogan and Shawn Michaels were scheduled to have a feud with three matches during the summer of 2005. Hogan would win the first one, Michaels would win the next, and ending with Hogan winning the decider and the feud. However, Hogan refused to have three matches due to "his health" and said he could only compete in one bout. Obviously, this move by Hogan upset Michaels.

His response was the 2005 SummerSlam main event had Shawn Michaels throwing himself around the ring like a rag doll for over twenty minutes. The Heart Break Kid's response to simple moves like punches and the Big Boot was hilarious, to say the least.
