According to reports, WWE wants Shawn Michaels to return for a match against Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania XXX, but the ball is said to be “completely in his court”.
Even though they teased some tension between HBK, CM Punk and Daniel Bryan on TV during his last few appearances, there is no talk of HBK facing Punk at WrestleMania or teaming up with someone to face Punk and Bryan. If Michaels agrees to work one more match, it’s going to be against Daniel Bryan. WWE only wants HBK to wrestle one more match, not make a full in-ring return.
The reason why WWE booked the CM Punk/HBK confrontation on RAW this week was so they could save the Triple H/CM Punk confrontation for later.
Finally, even if HBK doesn’t return for one more match, he’s expected to be on WWE TV a lot heading into WrestleMania.
