Two of the greatest competed for the ultimate goal
Knowing both would somehow prevail
Only one would win this highest honor
What some would consider a tall tale
They went into this match wanting only one thing
Giving there all to one another nonstop
There would be no end to their in-ring ability
Proving only one would be on top
The Heartbreaker trained his heart for this bout
His high-flying greatness, and showing no fear
His opponents lay flat from his Sweet Chin Music
And if you could see, probably shed a tear
The Hitman, the best there is, was, and ever will be
A painful submission he'd use on the Kid
A legend among men, his tactics are many
His opponent he thought he would quickly rid
This match I speak was deemed an Iron Man Match
A one hour fight from hell
Fighting tooth and nail for the championship belt
Awaiting the sound of the bell
As time was dwindling close to the end
How much more could these two men endeavor
Minutes are left, the score is tied
It seemed to continue forever
The Kid lies in pain for the sharpshooter's applied
But he holds on strong, he never quits
The bell is rung and the match deemed over
But would continue as told by the man from Piper's Pit
Bret grabbed his belt and fled the ring
Or so he thought as the champion
But when he entered again
The thrust of a leg
Was shot out like a powerful canyon
An overwhelmed Kid kneels down in the ring
The tears you could plainly see
He's awarded the belt
His dream had come true
His face full of joy you could certainly see
A standing ovation from fans in Anaheim
A Wrestlemania we'd remember forever
The cheers. the tears of all who saw
Shawn Michaels, the champ, we'd forever remember
