#4 Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 12

HBK!

To most people, Shawn Michaels is the greatest professional wrestler in history, and that's a tough argument to contradict, and therefore, his first WWE Championship win is obviously going to be an iconic moment.

The 60-minute Iron Man match between him and Bret Hart needed to go to overtime to find a result, but when Shawn hit that fateful SuperKick, the fans in attendance went crazy.

'The boyhood dream has come true' is one of the greatest calls in WWE history, and it's a call that's been the backdrop of many WWE highlight packages over the years, and for good reason.

The match itself divides opinion - some see it as a classic match for the time between two amazing workers, and others see it as a slow bout that took too much time to build to the finale, but either way, the win and the obvious emotion showed by Shawn makes this an absolutely classic moment.
