Whatever goes on inside the WWE ring is well-choreographed, practised between the wrestlers and all necessary precautions are taken care of before the main show takes place in front of thousands of viewers.

Even then, at times, something or the other is bound to go wrong and someone gets hurt for real. That is exactly why wrestlers put out a disclaimer asking their fans not to try their moves at home.

Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels was scheduled to feud with Kane in a no-disqualification match at the pay-per-view Unforgiven 2004 and in the middle of their fight, Kane, who is widely considered to be one of the safest wrestlers to have a wrestling match against, delivered a big boot to Michael’s head, making him take some real damage to the skull.

HBK also started bleeding from the forehead during the match but didn’t want to disappoint his fans so he kept fighting, shook off the jitters and got back to the originally rehearsed match. He delivered his finisher move, the ‘Sweet Chin Music’ to the Big Red Machine’s temple and pinned him for the win.

Due to the fact that the injury didn’t look very dangerous at the moment, the WWE thought nothing of it and continued Michaels’ career without paying much attention, however, with time, the wrestler’s lazy eye became more and more prominent, and soon, even the fans began to talk about it.

So, four whole years after the incident, WWE decided to make Michaels’ condition a part of his rivalry against Chris Jericho. On an episode of Raw, Jericho sends HBK’s head through what he called a “Jeritron,” a flat screen television and the storyline showed that it was because of this attack that Michaels got a lazy eye. 

To this day, both Jericho and Michaels talk about that feud as one of the best things that they have done in their respective careers. Jericho called it his greatest-feud of all time and Michaels couldn’t deny it.

It made him the ‘Superstar of the Year’ in 2008 and in the eyes of the audience, one of the greatest villains to ever step into the squared ring.
