The Undertaker's WrestleMania winning streak was, and still is, the stuff of legend. Fans would tune into WrestleMania every year for over 2 decades to see The Undertaker defeat another opponent, guys like Triple H, Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, Edge, Diesel, Kane and CM Punk all fell victim to The Phenom at the WWE's biggest event of the year. The Undertaker and The Streak became a WrestleMania tradition that no one thought would end.
At WrestleMania 30 in New Orleans, Brock Lesnar stepped up to take on The Undertaker. While the buildup to Taker vs Lesnar was similar to any other Undertaker WrestleMania match, the outcome left fans shocked. Brock Lesnar defeated the Undertaker, Lesnar became the "one in 21 and 1", and fans didn't know how to take it. Many thought that a mistake was made at WrestleMania 30, others thought Lesnar went into business for himself, it was theory after theory as fans came to terms with the legenedary undefeated streak ending at WrestleMania 30.
This video looks at how the Lesnar vs Undertaker Mania 30 match came together, the reaction to the streak ending, and the reasons why The Undertaker's legendary sting of victories came to an end at the hands of Brock Lesnar.

Lesnar revealed that after he pinned Taker, the arena was so quiet, that he thought he lost his hearing.
Everyone wouldn't knew that Brock Lesnar was the responsible for the end of The Undertaker's WrestleMania Streak
In that silence after the three count, I was just waiting for Hulk Hogan to come out and be like "Restart this match, brother!"
"I don't think Brock's ready brother!"
@@gchijioke12Doesn't work for me BROTHER
@@sagnikmustafi2374 hahahahahaha
@@Vassy82 lol. Just imagine when Taker lost the streak, Hogan pulls out a wm 9 and challenges Lesnar to a match and beats him with just a big boot followed by leg drop.
@Sam Crubish Ok. I think wm 30 is a nightmare then. I really wish I wake up because in my dream, Taker has lost the streak to Lesnar. And I absolutely hate it.
I remember that the second the refs hand hit 3, my dads house fell silent. Nobody spoke till the hype package for the next match.
I can second this.... We have a Wrestlemania party every year. All 30 of us didn't speak and were fighting tears so we don't look less tough.
I think the ref was even shocked.
@@nuduce123 He wasn't told the finish. All he was instructed to do was count the 3.
I remember at my place, we just turned it off. We didn't even watch the rest of Wrestlemania and never went back to the WWE after this moment
@@vidlover69 Woah.. damn. If I may ask, was there any other reason or was it, "Welp, thats it"
It only should’ve ended if he was %100 sure he wouldn’t wrestle again, him still wrestling at WrestleMania for another 6 years after it broke made the weight the streak carried less meaningful.
I agree after the streak was broken all his other wrestlemania appearance didn't hve the same feel anymore it was like oh undertaker gonna be at wrestlemania ok whatever after brock beat him.
I agree
Definitely
@@jasoncordray4957 I agree. There are two ways it should've gone: He should've lost to Bray the following year. It would've added to the idea that perhaps time was getting the better of Undertaker and that his days were numbered. Then you could run Sting vs Taker for his last match. That or you immediately run Sting vs. Taker as soon as Sting made his debut and the two face in a career vs career match.
In hindsight, they should've had Sting vs Taker when they had the chance. That might've still been able to draw a lot of attention after the streak was broken.
Say what you like about Brock, he took care of an obviously compromised Undertaker and helped him get through the Match in one piece and that speaks volumes for his integrity.
Brock may be a little stiff, but he's safe in the ring. It's also common knowledge how much he respects The Undertaker. I really wouldn't want to have been in Brock's shoes feeling what he was feeling as he knew something was totally wrong and having to be extremely careful not to hurt him further. It's a difficult position to be in for sure.
Not talked about enough...
Brock Lesnar is 100 percent business
Incredibly understated comment brother.
Yep, people talk about Brock's attitude and his special treatment, but bottom line, he's GREAT at pro wrestling, whether he has a passion for it or not.
I absolutely despise wrestling these days, but this channel is just phenomenal. So interesting and fun to relive the 'good' old days.
I can't agree more about it 👍🏻
Hell yeah, buddy!
🤔🤔🤔
... wait, do the "good ol' days" include 2014?
I felt this comment. Havent been a fan for prob 20 yrs, but i watch every video this guy puts out. They are so interesting and so well done.
Exactly
I'm pretty much with you, I bought the WWE Network just to relive a ton of the old stuff
But there's a couple channels like this that are really good for documentaries basically that aren't available otherwise
Sometimes there's still some good matches in the current programming, but there's no reason to tune in weekly. it's more like hear one was good and check it out later LOL
And it's still usually involves alumni and not just new talent
I'm not going to lie I felt like everyone in the crowd that night, It didn't seem real at 1st because I really thought and felt they would never end the streak because it was the Undertaker
I gave up the WWE after this. This was the nail in the coffin, and I feel my era of watching WWE ended this night. haven't watched a thing since.
@@vidlover69 Yup it died that night. It declined from 06 little by little each year and this was it.
Should have never ended, and you know what, he only beat Brock ONCE at that Summerslam after this and it wasn't even straight up. If they were gonna do that then it should be Brock always won EXCEPT AT MANIA he should have dominated but lost straight up at the end of the match because it is impossible to win against Undertaker there. And the 2nd loss omg I truly stopped watching the current product. Pray Sting challenges Taker when he goes in the HOF. With the cinematic type matches done they can do it safely if people are concerned about their "ages"
Wrestlemania stopped becoming exciting it was the streak that was still keeping Mania with that edge
I was there in the crowd that night... one of the most amazing reactions ever. So much silence with a few cheers from Brock fans.
Wasn't the right guy or the time to do it.
Props to Lesnar for taking care of Taker as best he could
Absolutely 💯!!!
It makes you appreciate the care he showed.
And he was one of the first people alongside Vince to the hospital.
@Sam Crubish hahahaha
That one two three signed the exact moment WWE died for me.
same, exactly the same
Wwe die on march 26 2001
Ditto. What they did to sting was unforgivable
Except 2016 was watchable. Probably one of my favorite years of WWE. Smackdown was amazing.
Brock always dominated Undertaker, going back to 2003. Brock ending the streak made perfect sense.
New found respect for Brock Lesnar. He really took care of the undertaker on this one
Couldn't have said it any better myself.
He takes care of alot of wrestlers in his matches. He's very careful.
@Sam Crubish despite a very dangerous style with suplexes that can easily compact necks and spines when executed poorly. Unsafe and Lesnar have never been used in the same sentence. You’re clearly just a hater who can’t see past what you “like”. Even Cena has stated Brock to be the best in ring performer of all time... I’m sure you’re about to show how “objective” you are and say something ridiculous about Cena not being able to work...
@Sam Crubish Lol Sam you are one sad soy boy.
in my opinion he did the wrong thing. it is evident that he recognized that something was off with undertaker. he clearly recognized that. he should have raise his hands and stopped the match. continue only for the sake of the show put at incredible risk the already damaged health of his opponet. continuing to give impacts and bumbs to a concussed man is a terrible idea
Downside with any streak gimmick is it becomes more about who will break it than who has it
Well kinda, Nash broke Goldberg’s streak and ppl talk about the 173-0 or whatever it was and not how Nash ended it. When you hear ppl talk about Kevin Nash ending Goldberg’s streak it isn’t a highlight in his career.
True
The fact that the decision to end the streak was made at the last minute is the worst part... something as monumental as the streak should have been carefully planned well in advance.
Oh I don't know about that. Some of the best sort of story beats and moments seem to have been last minute stuff. From the Rock vs Hogan WrestleMania match that they completely changed on the fly as they realized that the crowd was VERY different from what they expected. To even things like the HBK winning the European Championship from the British Bulldog in Britain. Sometimes the good idea comes late and you just have to call the audible.
I definitely think as Vince said it was the right choice. That silence at the 3 was... probably tied with Hulk Hogan body slamming Andre the Giant as one of the most emotion packed moments and responses in WrestleMania history. It worked. And that point of "If not Brock, then who?" was right. Taker was getting old. He was getting out of shape. He had to put someone else over on the way out (as you do in Wrestling)... so who else was it going to be? And it looked at the time like that might have been his last WrestleMania with the condition he was generally in (no one I knew guessed he'd go on for 6 more years after that...).
And you got an unforgettable moment that people will still probably be talking about 40 years later like they are with Hogan and Andre. It's so unique and powerful I can't see any creative type worth the name NOT want to pull that trigger on the way out for the Undertaker. Particularly if they have anyone with as much legitimacy and fit the Permanent Heel Forever as Brock Lesnar.
@@hitomisalazar4073 This is absolutely spot on. If Taker had won this match, nobody would remember it. But here we are with people bitching about it left, right and centre to this day! I think, since the collapse of kayfabe, people have forgotten that pro wrestling is supposed to stir the emotions in the same way that real competitive sports do. They seem to think that every match should go the way they think it should, and by doing that, they make themselves bigger marks than ever - proving that Vince got it absolutely right.
@@hitomisalazar4073 The problem is WHO got over, Brock Lesnar ending the streak wasn't going to help him because he wasn't a wrestler going week per week to prove he was the best. And you only have to look at his (I believe) first WWE Champion reign since he return, with Lesnar only appearing in PPV to defend the champion and if you ask who he defend it againts you probable will never get a real answer.
Brock Lesnar at that point shouldn't have been the one who ended the streak because he wasn't a regular, he would just come in, win, and that's it. While Hogan with Andre both of them where week after week in TV even before their rivality. (And I don't think such a comparison is prudent because yes, Undertaker's streak lasted longer but Andre had many more victories. Also that Andre was in better shape than Taker and had many more fights, while Taker was literally in his ending years. (And having said that, Brock's victory felt even less powerful because Taker was practically falling down because of his age, and defeating an old man who can barely stand up does not put anyone over (Difference between Rock Vs. Hogan)))
@@MrBam79 If no one was going to remember the match because it didn't end the streak then Brock shouldn't have won at all. Is like saying Sid, Big Show and Train, should have ended the streak because no one remembers their match.
And beside the end of the streak, what other emotion did the match got? The only other emotion I got was shame because Taker couldn't even stand up, and you will tell me how much more over can Brock Lesnar get if his opponent can't even make a basic move.
Like seriously, tell me a good moment, a single one that put Lesnar as a strong opponent in the WHOLE match. 3 F5s? How many times Triple H and Shawn Michaels did their finisher?
It's so sad that taker got concussed during the match, you know he wanted to end the streak in one of his best matches that he could have, a shame.
Only taker could have no idea what was happening and still work a decent match. What a freak.

With Undertaker being concussed like that, it makes you appreciate Mankind even more. KOR '98
I still remember that damn day...
Outside of texting, i dead aint say a SINGLE WORD out of my mouth for the rest of that night... I was one of the fans that couldn't even enjoy the main event sure to seeing Taker lose. Taker was already undefeated by the time i was born so the streak was a part of my life, it was one of the highlights of everyone's WrestleMania, the near falls was something everyone looked forward to, but when that final three count happened it was like the world stopped. That first 60 seconds after the bell is a feeling that you can't explain unless you lived it. Even people that stopped being fans of wrestling were losing their minds at Taker no longer being Undefeated. It truly was a wrestlemania moment.
It made sense though . In kayfabe , Brock always dominated the Undertaker . So Brock was the one guy who could legit end the streak .
I "dead" ain't say a single word...I see what you did there Chiseled 🤣.
@@robertlawrence4719 you're correct, that's why im at peace with it becyase Brock is the single most believable Wrestler in the business currently.
@@RemmyRiffs im a new yorker at heart lol
The entire Wrestlemania crowd drew silent. It's surreal when such a thing happens on a normal show let alone a stage such as Wrestlemania. Gives me chills to this day.
Major respect for Brock at 15:59. It's little things like this that go unnoticed and I am glad you highlighted how Brock went out of his way to make sure Undertaker was safe by changing things on the fly.
0:52 You forgot the Greatest opponent of all, Giant Gonzales!
Yeah and El Gigante got disqualified that match. So Undertaker didn't really beat him.
That streak was compromised from then on.
the greatest match of any WM!! dare i say of all time!!
Yeah didn’t really win that match but don’t nobody talks about this one
@@igorivanov299 Being disqualified still counts as a lost.
@@robmartin5556 a disqualifikation is also a win.
Michael Coles line “the streak is over” still resinates today
I lost my breath. I felt like that final slap was everyone's breath leaving them.
I think Taker should've retired here but I can understand why he continued.
Mr Krabs : “I like money”
If you watch doctor who ... I would have loved to hear 10s regeneration music as taker walks back up the ramp, as the climax hits lightning hits where the undertaker is , a ring of fire as undertaker sinks below the stage and his symbol rises
@@emypetcu HA! That's probably also true but I can understand he wanted to have that one more big match considering he suffered a concussion and couldn't remember his match with Brock.
Luckily Taker continues to work and meet up AJ Styles to make perfect ending of the Undertaker. If not, some stupid fans will label him as quitter like they did it to Ronda Rousey.
Because of saudi bloodmoney?
I love how you portrayed Paul Heyman's role leading to the match, he's the undertaker of promos whose streak is endless lol
I wish he woulda mentioned CM Punk's tease return promo in Chicago. That was epic trolling by Paul.
Yep
I’d have loved to have seen Undertaker retire with the Streak intact. The end of the Streak feels like one of those things you think you want to see, but when it comes you realize you really don’t.
I don’t think anyone would have said that Undertaker was selfish by keeping the Streak intact. The guy gave back to the business at every turn and he deserved to have this one special thing that no other performer could touch. He deserved it because of his loyalty, professionalism, and leadership.
I was in attendance at WM30. It was odd hearing the Superdome go almost silent for a few seconds after the finish. I think everyone was expecting a restart or a false finish of sorts.
Taker should've retired with the Streak unbroken.
my thoughts exactly.
He should have left when it was broken
Absolutely!
@@sweetpetergeda either or would have been perfect
Eh, I disagree. Breaking the streak easily would have made the next big star and its often customary in Wrestling for the guy going out to give the guy coming in a push.
When I watched this match live I though the undertaker barely being able to stand was just God tier selling, not a concussion
20:11 of course. Brock owes a lof of his success in the WWE due to his feud with the Undertaker, whether it was the 2002/03 run or the 2014/15 run
Brock was going 2 be big either way. He just had the it factor
@@sweetpetergeda yes he was going to be big, but you need to have great matches with great opponents who were willing to make you big as well
@@richardnash6111 their matches were classic. Showed Brock could wrestle and take a beating as well
To this day, I'm still pissed that they chose to break the streak.
Should've ended it against Reigns, which at the time was meant to be takers last match. I don't think it should've continued, it needed to end, but to a part time bounty hunter? No, to a deserving up & comer. The new dog puts down the old dog.
@@stevelowe2647 true. and also reigns should've turned heel after that
I agree with not being able to enjoy the rest of the show. I just stared at the screen, gutted. Watched with a couple friends and it just sucked the air right out of the room.
Mr. McMahon wanted heartbreak with his Wrestlemania due to the fans demanding Daniel Bryan be in the main event and winning the Championship whenever he already had his handpicked Wrestlemania opponents. So basically he gave the fans something they wanted and took The Streak.
In a way, I feel that the concussion made the match better, believe it or not. The entire story of the match was that Taker had finally bitten off more than he could chew, and he was overmatched. And he simply couldn't pull off the win. So in Kayfabe, it worked perfectly.
Taker losing the streak was the swan song for the old wrestling generation. A legacy, generations and traditions died that day. It was over in one way or the other.
The end of the Streak will be one of those moments that will stand the test of time. No one saw it coming and everyone remembers where they were when it happened. A moment over 20 years in the making that will most likely very be replicated again.
The ending of the streak moment is like when the trade center towers came down, EVERYONE REMEMBERS WHERE THEY WERE WHEN IT HAPPENED.
It's a moment that let me know that wwe was headed on a more rapid downside. And look at the company now
What i really want to see was the live backstage reaction on the streak ending that night. I thought i was gonna see it at The Last Ride but, oh well.
Another great video👌👊 Best Wrestling Channel on youtube no doubt.
I’m still pissed the streak ended and shouldn’t have happened. I’m over it now but I find it hard to rewatch that match
Brock has a lot of integrity. The way he took care of and went to the hospital with Undertaker says so much about his true character.
Seems like a really good man.
All the respect in the world for watching out for the man who helped me through my really difficult teen years.
Coffee, donuts, and wrestling bios... don’t get much better.
Lol
I knew that if there was ever a single individual capable of breaking the streak, it was Brock. The history between Brock and Taker says it all. Brock in his first run dominated WWE and whomever he went up against. The Undertaker was one of his victims. IMO If you go back and watch their rivalry in 2002-03, it makes a great case for Brock to be physically capable of breaking the streak.
It made sense that Brock COULD beat Taker, but from what I've gathered from shoot interviews Brock didn't gain much from beating him. They should have had someone that needed a big push end the streak. But that's not what happened and most people hate it. I love it. I love the shock of the crowd. I love Heyman's reaction.
Why must you remind me of that tragic night 😭😭😭
That concussion was a shame but it did make the end of the match so much more impactful. Undertaker looked completely lost as if he had no idea what just happened. And most of us felt the same trying to process what just happened.
Thank you Taker and Bearer.
It was never quite the same when paul Bearer died, imagine his facial expression when the ref counted 3! that would have been just as iconic as the result itself.
Absolutely stellar work on this video. The music production is outstanding from the opening to slow heartbreaking 3 count. 👏👏👏
Ironic Heyman was Mark's manager in wcw and then helped end the streak
He also helped get him into wwf by mentioning him to Bruce Pritchard.
@William Leeroy How’s he a Clown for speaking facts 🤡?
Love your opening! Using the Johnny Cash song “man comes around.“ May I also say that this whole undertaker thing, especially after the Roman match, I am really thought of the film “Logan.“
Anyway, another great video!
Keep in mind too when Brock made the call to cancel Old School. All that weight pretty much got sandbaged on to his back.
Not gonna lie, I shed some tears when the streak ended. Been watching The Undertaker since his very first appearance in WWE. Thank you Taker for everything you gave to entertain your fans. #1 LEGEND!!!!!
God damn the mashup songs in these intros are amazing. Link them Bios!
IDK the Undertaker will and always is a living Legend, but I feel like he mixes up "what is good for the business" with "what Vince wants". Vince McMahon has not made a decision good for the wrestling business since the 90s. I feel like the streak was the Undertaker's and should had remained his, however Brock should had definitely not been the one to break it.
He loved this business so much that he let his streak be broken. If anyone who should have broken the streak. It should've been Kane. But if not Kane. Triple H, HBK or Orton.
Orton would most definitely had been a made man considering how his career would go on to be going forward. I would have thought that Angle or Edge would be legit possibilities as well. Given how much pull the Kliq always had, surprised one of them hadn’t done it.
He didnt let anything. Vince said so
@@sweetpetergeda, and he could've told Vince no.
Happy to watch an undertaker video on my birthday
A little sad because I had to be reminded of the streak being broken
i think the fact that you weren't even fully paying attention to the match when it was happening live says it all. they probably sensed that the novelty had worn off over the years and it wasn't as entertaining as it used to be for the fans. they did the math and figured that a loss would generate a huge response from the media and fans, which is much better for business than another win that everyone assumed would happen.
Taker was the only one whos matches i still watched at that time..otherwise i changed the channel
I was laying in bed as the match was going on, I opened my eyes for a sec and when I saw the three count. I legit thought I was dreaming for a sec before reality hit me.
Undertaker started wrestling the year I was born I feel old imagine how he feels
Thanks for hitting my feels once again.
Press F for Takers career.
F5
This was one of Vince's worst decisions and that's a long list.
Yeah he should of retired as the spirit of wrestlemania itself
I knew Lesnar would end the steak,I remember telling my friends at the gym takers gna lose,there was an eerie feeling about the whole thing,I even grew the trademark ministry goatie in tribute
Also taker has never beat Lesnar one on one so it made sense to me
There is a video titled 'Where were you when the streak ended'. And after the match you could really see Brock Lesnar being disappointed and Paul Heyman with his hands in his mouth in sadness.
That's the same video in which Randy Orton said that Brock Lesnar ending the streak bothered him. LOL
@@kevinpayton2664 whats so funny?
@@tashrif46 I don't know really. I think that when Orton said it bothered him, I got a chuckle out of it. That's all
@@kevinpayton2664 I mean it bothered a lot of people.
I have to be honest everyone. I was there in my Undertaker cosplay and near the very end before the third F-5 hit with Lesnar covering Taker, I was screaming and begging for the kick out and my eyes blinked at the same time the fatal 3 count hit and all the air escaped from my lungs as I gasped so heavily that I had a heart attack and collapsed to the floor and was out for what felt like forever. When I came, sitting up, I saw the haunting 21-1 sign and seconds later I was in tears and in a rage I had not felt before or since... but clearly this was the night where the magic of wrestlemania died along with the Undertaker's streak as well as most of my passion for WWE. Once Taker left the arena, I turned the TV off and I went to bed but I didn't sleep.... I was in tears of shock until the next morning still feeling the effects of what happened. This was the night that it all ended for a lot of us WWE fans and tragically that would only get worse when a week or two after Wrestlemania 30 and the end of Taker's streak, Ultimate Warrior would pass away and from there my depression deepened over WWE to where I came that close to being done with wrestling forever. 2014 for me was the darkest time for me as a fan of wrestling but somehow I was able hold on to some hope but clearly Wrestlemania 30 was the event the magic of it all ended and it no longer mattered... that was until Undertaker returned at Wrestlemania 31 in 2015.
Let’s gooo finally a video that I can relate watching live the ending of the streak. The streak was awesome!
Knowing all I know now about the match and the circumstances, those events are even more dramatic than they were then. For me, it already felt like the end of his career and was even harder to get over than his WM33 loss and supposed retirement and even his final farewell. It kinda prepared me for that what happened in 2020.
@Alex Kanyima Yeah, when he became a part timer in 2011 and looking at his match at WM27, you could see that. Even tho, end of an era at WM28 is all-time classic.
Your videos are always good, but your analysis on this one was exceptional. Well done!
Thank you! Hioe you enjoyed it. A tough one to put together for sure.
I’ll get this off my chest now and get it out of the way, but undertakers streak should never have come to an end, especially to a part timer
100% Agreed. If anyone would've, it should've been someone that will carry the company for years to come. Or attempt, at least.
All good things come to an end. :(.. but Kane should have ended the streak.
That intro mix was so sick! Great video as always.
As soon as I see that notification, it can mean only thing, it's my man wrestling bios with another fantastic in depth video.
I still say to this day that the only time the streak should have ended is if it was for an Undertaker retirement match and you knew 100% going in that it was going to be it.
The historic win should have been for a guy who would have benefited greatly from such an prestigious honor in dethroning a true wrestling legend.
Someone like Roman Reigns who is in his prime with a big future in front of him, all due respect to Brock Lesnar but he didn't need the rub as he was already a made man.
What makes the end of the streak more heartbreaking was the match wasn't good and as a loyal Undertaker fan, he looked old, slow and out of shape. I would have slightly forgiven it if it was a great match especially as Brock Lesnar and Undertaker have done good stuff together in the past.
Looking back now after over six years, ending the streak achieved nothing and as a result of it, Wrestlemania has lost its prestige and the show isn't as special as it was before.
Undertaker has nothing to be ashamed of, a streak of 21 straight wins is still an impressive achievement and will never replicated.
Keep up the good work 👍

Another fantastic video as always. Binged this Undertaker series like mad.
Can't wait for a video filling in the gap between after WM21 and this
Brock really was the only choice that made sense at the time. The way I see it, breaking the streak wasn’t so much about cementing a new star that would carry the company as it was about creating a new “final boss” character, and Lesnar was the only guy in the company who had that potential.
Absolutely. The only other person that could conceivably break the streak around this time would have been Reigns. And that would have simply caused fans to hate him even more than they already did. Which tends to not be a good thing when your character is supposed to be the ultimate good guy.
Amen
And now he's a no show and did nothing for buisness
no it didn't, he had a losing streak since his return in wwe, and in ufe he lost his 2 final bouts (due to injury) so he was the least one to defeat him, It should've been someone they easily build as an unbeatable character for at least 3 years.
Cena should have broke it and Taker shouldn't have wrestled after that or HHH
I was at WrestleMania 30, when taker lost it was insane. 10,000 people left, grown men crying. Just everyone in disbelief. It was one of the best moments in the history of wrestling
Only came across this channel recently but I gotta say your now my favourite Wrestling channel to go to.

After all the times Taker rose from the grave he finally cashed it in. I don't watch wrestling anymore (don't like the new stuff), but I did start back up again for a short little while when I found out Taker was near the end of his career and I'm glad I did. I'm 38 and that means his career spanned most of my life... so It was a fun ride Taker.
I love this video!! Thank you!
When watching live with some friends, we kept having connection issues with the WWE Network. The Network kept freezing for a moment or it would replay a few second. When the 3 count happened most of us thought that maybe the first or second pin count was replayed and the third ref count wasn't the actual third count. One of our friends shouted "WHAT?!" in disbelief at the TV.
Great video!! I was there and I have a personal account of that night. I was sitting near the top of the Superdome. Me and my buddies was talking during this match saying the next years Mania was in Cali. We also believed Sting was coming in the WWE. And it was quiet after the match like you said but being there, it felt like it was a new level of silence. Sitting near the top, you hear stuff in the ring in a 1 or 2 second delay. The shock was soooooo real!!!
The WORST move the WWE ever made was killing 'Taker's streak.
Agreed totally
I think the problem was ending the streak and not having him retire on that moment
They still had him billed as this big WrestleMania spectacle but after the streak was broken there was just something missing
The streak was compromised after Wrestlemania 9. El Gigante got disqualified against Taker and wasn't beaten in the standard way. That makes that streak bogus to begin with.

It's *you're*
*Your* is possessive, as in *your* grammar sucks.
*You're* is a combination of *You* and *are*
*You're* bogus.
English is my second language, how is it a Russian has to tell Americans how to grammar?
I was there when the streak died, and never watched THAT match again.... #ThankyouTaker
Was there live and confirm about the crowd. People were legitimately crying and angry. No one believed what we witnessed. You could've heard a pin drop in the arena until Bryan won. It was that quiet
Man your videos are lit. I have never seen a channel so informative about superstars of wwe. Love your content. I want you to make a whole series on kane just like you did with the undertaker
Awesome video man!
I always felt the streak ending should have been his last match
Nice work
I am thirty five years old and my love for wrestling has faded over the years, quite understandably so. I have a young family now, getting older, priorities/interests change.
However, this channel had made me fall back in love with my nostalgic past passion.
Thank you very much, keep it up, take care, stay safe.
My friends and I stayed up to watch Mania that night at my best friends house. A few minutes in I noticed that Taker didn't look like his normal self, kinda sluggish. When Lesnar pinned him my friend who's a diehard taker fan just went quiet. Will never forget that moment.
Awesome Story
Brilliant. Throughly enjoyed the vid 👌🏼
God damn, what a great video. This has to be the best pro wrestling channel on TH-cam.
Another great video
Roman Reigns would have ended the streak and the fans would have never forgiven WWE for that. The fact Lesnar had a legitimate past in fighting made him the only real option.
I was stunned at the time but if the streak was to end, it went to the best man for the job.
It’s not to say I agree it should have ended, but Taker was never going retire undefeated. It was rumoured for years he was too old school to not pass on the torch before he left. And even when it got to Reigns turn he was still hated for it. Imagine if it’d been for the streak.
Its like the world stopped for a moment
