I respect all the wrestlers who perform and think they all have the right to announce their retirement in the ring, but there are very few that will have the same impact like Michaels', Edge's, and Bryan's retirement. So who else at this point in time should be given or is worthy of a proper lengthy Retirement segment that is sure to receive a huge emotional crowd response if they were to announce their in-ring retirement?
My Picks:
-Undertaker (The only one I'd like to see actually have his speech and retirement at Wrestlemania)
-Cena (We hate his character, but can't deny the fact that he deserves a proper sendoff)
-HHH (Obvious reasons)
-Orton (Obvious reasons)
-Kane (People may not like the guy now and compare him to Big Show, but his legacy with WWE far surpasses that of Big Show imo)
-Jericho (He said he doesn't want an official retirement, but still)
-Sting (I think his will be at the HOF this year though)
-Lesnar (Deserves it, but probably doesn't really care lol)
-The Rock (Kind of already announced, but not officially)
Future Picks (5-10 Years down the line):
-Ambrose
-Rollins
-Owens

You sir are missing the most obvious one.
Christian, he never got a proper retirement segment/speech.
not only proper he never got anything he just disappeared. Damn.
Ah, I did forget. I feel like it would have had more impact had he retired shortly after maybe losing the world title to Orton or his short run with the IC title or maybe even after failing to beat Del Rio for the World title a couple years back. I think if he came back now and retired, people would be like "Wait, aren't you already retired? lol".
Sad too because Christian is definitely one of my favorites :/
Rollins could be up there down the road but he's not even halfway there yet. Outside of Brock he's the only blue chip guy out there right now. Bray is a wild card.
Agree with all those who said Christian. Dude puts 15-16 years into the company, and they write him off the show silently. Perhaps they are still salty over his brief departure and stint in TNA.
To those saying Lesnar, LMAO, they are going to have to pay big $$$ to get a retirement speech out of him!
i think everyone who's dedicated their entire lives to wwe deserve a send off. the next week it'll be business as usual, so why not just go all out and show appreciation for the night. it may be cringey as hell, but seeing veterans fall off the grid doesn't seem right. goldust is a name that'd make for an awesome send off, gold ring, gold ropes etc.
Stone Cold, Undertaker, Mick Foley, Kane, Big Show, Hulk Hogan.
