Randy Orton vs. Shawn Michaels (WWE Championship Match)
WWE: TV Shows > Survivor Series > Matches > Match Preview
The war between WWE Champion Randy Orton and Shawn Michaels has been personal and nothing short of a battle for survival. Nothing was settled at Cyber Sunday as Orton purposely got disqualified to save his championship and deny HBK his revenge for being put out by the Legend Killer for five months. However, that didn’t protect Orton from the embarrassment of being knocked out – for the fourth time in a row – by The Showstopper’s Sweet Chin Music.
Now these two will battle again at Survivor Series, with the WWE Title on the line. Orton and HBK are evenly matched. Sweet Chin Music has long been his quick, sudden and lethal equalizer whenever he has had to reach deep within himself and overcome the odds. Orton is a relentless, sadistic viper who has left a who’s who of legendary Superstars lying in his wake with the RKO and brutal punt to the skull. He nearly ended Michaels’ career with this one-two combination and was embarrassed when HBK returned. In Orton’s mind, The Showstopper dampened his reputation as a Legend Killer and has stolen the spotlight he believes is rightfully his as WWE Champion.
But never sell HBK short. He wants revenge on Orton for nearly ending his career. HBK admits that Mr. McMahon is right: the Legend Killer may have tapped into his darkest, deepest evil side. Michaels wants to take Orton out in his prime and snuff out his career.
In addition, Survivor Series has been kind to The Showstopper. Michaels has won a world championship twice at the Survivor Series, the last time in 2002 when he survived The Elimination Chamber to win the World Heavyweight Title.
Orton has said he is a “one-man dynasty.” HBK says he wants to hit Orton where it would hurt him the most by taking away his beloved WWE Championship. There can be only one winner in this titanic struggle for survival. Will it be the legend that is HBK or the Legend Killer? Be sure to catch Survivor Series, live on pay-per-view, on Sunday Nov. 18 at 8/7CT to find out.
