As the rivalry between Batista and Shawn Michaels heats up and heads toward a one-on-one encounter at Backlash, our fans had the opportunity to voice their opinions as to whether they think HBK did the right thing at Backlash when he ended Ric Flair's career.

Voting took place during SmackDown through text messaging, and the results are in. Our fans, with 61.3% of the vote, believe Shawn Michaels did the right thing at WrestleMania XXIV when he ended Flair's career.

When HBK steps into the ring at Backlash, he may have the backing of our fans, but none of that will sway the anger of The Animal, who is looking for retribution for his mentor's retirement.
