The Showstopper is headed to the Stanley Cup playoffs.

WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels recently created a buzz on Twitter when he praised the "HBK" line the Penguins have been putting out during their playoff run. Michaels was known as the "Heartbreak Kid," a.k.a. "HBK" during his legendary career in the WWE.

The Penguins have been skating a line of Carl Hagelin, Nick Bonino and Phil Kessel throughout the postseason, a unit that bares the same nickname as Michaels due to the first initial of their last names. The four-time WWE World Heavyweight Champion recently noted the line on Twitter and gave his stamp of approval:

Pittsburgh has taken it one step further, inviting the wrestling legend to Game 5 at the Consol Energy Center this Sunday.

Michaels gladly accepted and even called into "NHL Tonight" to discuss the line that is taking the hockey world by storm.

Just like Michaels' successful in-ring career, which included him being dubbed "Mr. WrestleMania," the Hagelin-Bonino-Kessel trio has been unbelievable in the playoffs.

Kessel is tied for second in the league in goals this postseason with seven, while he ranks fourth in points (16) and tied for fourth in assists (9) as his Conn Smythe-worthy playoff run continues. Bonino (plus-9) is second in the NHL in plus-minus, while Hagelin (plus-7) is tied for fourth.

The trio has combined for 14 of the Penguins 45 goals this spring and has totaled 39 points, becoming one of the most feared units in the NHL.

Michaels may have the privilege of seeing a series-clinching game for Pittsburgh as it owns a 2-1 series lead over Tampa Bay heading into Friday's Game 4 in Florida. If the Penguins win Friday, they could set themselves up to clinch their first trip to the Stanley Cup Final since they won it all in 2009 on home ice in Game 5 on Sunday.

When HBK meets the HBK line, anything can happen.
