It definitely shouldn’t have ended up with him losing twice. The second he lost to Brock he should’ve just retired. Them making him lose to Roman also was pathetic. And the John Cena match was embarrassing.
The WWE has to worry about building other stars up. When stone cold was big they had a problem of finding sombody to compete against him for awhile that the audience could enjoy. So they need to prop other fighters up and get as many as possible. The good ones are retiring and there will be nobody good left.
So much respect and love. Truly though the streak should of never been broke. It is a legendary achievement to have had the streak and the perfect record for the Deadman. I do respect the fact that it did end.
They definitely should have broken the streak, because it was the biggest rub ever built up in the history of professional wrestling. It would have been an incredible waste, a waste of undertaker's entire career, to not use the breaking of the streak like that. It would have all been for nothing, if they didn't break the streak. It would have been saying that Undertaker's whole career never really meant anything, and that all the blood sweat and tears he put in over 3 decades wasn't important or meaningful. Never in the entire history of professional wrestling worldwide, had been built up as big as Taker's streak. They HAD to use it, otherwise what would have been the point of it all? Not using it would be like climbing up almost the entirety of mount everest, but then when you're just a couple of yards below the peak of the mountain, you decide to end your climb there and turn back, so that you never actually climb to the top of mount everest but just 99.99% of it. Why wouldn't you just climb up those extra few yards to get to the very top of the mountain? If you actually turned back then, then it would have meant all the incredibly strenuous effort you put in over the days and weeks of being there climbing would have been for nothing. No, nobody would ever climb up it but then turn around only a few yards from the peak. And similarly, breaking undertaker's streak was the biggest deal in the history of wrestling. They'd put in decades of very hard work to build it up, and you're just gonna not use it right at the end when you could give someone the biggest rub the business has ever seen? Then what was the point of doing the streak in the first place!? I don't think Brock was the best decision for who to end the streak, but I think it's worked out very well. Since he broke the streak he's remained as the final boss of WWE, the guy everyone has to beat to reach the top of the roster. WWE have been able to use Brock time and time and time again to lose to the next big thing in the company, the next top guy, and so despite Brock losing a fair amount, he still remains very credible as an undefeatable-seeming beast of a man. They've got a whole decade of use of Brock as the ultimate jobber ever. And it's because he broke the streak, and so he has permanent credibility forever more, despite how often he loses. So in that sense, WWE got an incredible amount of good, positive things, from having Brock break the streak. So even though I would have picked someone else to break the streak, personally, I think WWE have definitely made great use of Brock being the one, they've really got their money's worth from it, and so it's completely justified in that sense.

@@itshouse2766when was this? Because Taker had said the ending wasn't changed until the day of the event, 4 hours before it started to be exact, and he asked Vince, if he was sure, and Vince replied, "if not him, then who", and Taker agreed after that
That's the point, he wanted it to end. Undertaker had enough pull backstage that Vince would've went with any idea he wanted, and that's why it was broken
Literally every wrestler who's been taught the very foundation of wrestling thought that the Streak was always gonna end. That's not Taker's opinion alone.
Of the two it should have been Bray. The narrative at the time was that Bray was the ‘new’ Undertaker and it would have cemented it. Roman was already destined for his top spot. Bray made it part of his character that he was overlooked, it’s what his second match at mania with Cena was about. Had he been the guy to break the streak it would have shot him to the moon instead of being misused for so long.

Honestly. And hear me out. It should have been Kane. When you think of the Brothers of Destruction you think of Taker and Kane. I think if Kane broke the streak it would have been more satisfying due to their history, and also would have elevated kanes legacy that much more.
Better script imo is, Someone who need the win (like Mark said like Wyatt or Reigns), THEN somehow got helped by Kane to win. This way, the winner will receive hate yet a 'higher status'. From here the rest of the story can be anything. Like, give him a redemption arc or sum and eventually fight Kane perhaps? Idk, although they have history as BOD I don't Kane is the right guy to ended it.
Kane ending the streak in one of the 2 matches he had with Taker would not have been as big. The streak was still very young by the 2nd time they faced off at mania. The first match Taker was 6-0 going into it and the streak wasn’t even talked about at that point in time. the second match Taker was 11-0 going into it. So no it would not have been as big of a deal as when Brock ended the 21-0 streak. Kane was already finished and buried at that point of his career. Bray Wyatt was still young(Only 25)and being booked horribly. If he had beaten Taker in Brocks place, he would’ve became bigger then he was and won more championships and main evented more Wrestlemanias.
People would've hated Roman forever if he had ended it. Bray is actually a fairly good choice. I'll tell you where they should've ended it. During end of an era match against Triple H with Shawn as the ref. That too me would've been perfect and even in character Undertaker stated "if I felt someone should put me down, Id want it to be you."
My Personal opinion he should've retired with the undefeated streak but vince deciding to end it, It Honestly should've been Bray Wyatt ending the streak it would've taking him to the next level in his development and it be like passing the torch moment back then.
New era = Roman Reigns Old era = Kane I would even give Triple H a honorary mention BUT he was involved in too many jobber matches and belt turns that by the time WrestleMania hit fans would have had Triple H fatigue but he does put on some good matches and he was in that heavy roster that constantly fought each other. Rock doesn't make sense, Austin either (unless its the Ministry beef), Triple H is kinda a "legend killer" aka "Hunter" i.e. "The Game". Kane would be the obvious choice for story since that's his brother and equal but fans also getting Kane fatigue and he wasn't as menacing anymore after his many transformations. Brock was a safe pick, not a bad guy too lose too since he's beast but was a sloppy performance. The BEST outcome was if Sting wrestled Taker and won, but Vince won't allow his dark prince to be beaten by the WCW goth. Sting was the better of the dark characters, he had way more personality with his Crow gimmick.
I respect this I can agree with Taker’s suggestions (Wyatt especially), but WWE really never should’ve ended it. If he had hung it up undefeated it would’ve been a perfect legacy close.
He's not wrong. Brock was a top guy who got a rub he didn't need so could what? Go to SummerSlam and destroy Cena? Which he could have believably done anyway without this extra feather in his cap. It's like putting over Superman on his way to defeating Lex Luthor for the 185th time.
Brock carried the company for the next 10 years after it happened. Your not buying ppvs or subscription to network without brock being on it. Name on other legit star
@andrewvazquez1936 brock stayed with the company for the next 10 years! You claim all this part time shit, dude, if you watch boxing you get floyd Mayweather twice a year. Brock ruled wwe from the day he came back after wm 28. Yes he broke the streak. But who at that time did you want to beat it that you would pay money to see today??? Who is worth paying money to see today? Roman is like a joke champion that is just getting pushed to keep the company relevant. We know wwe is global, but there is, and hasn't been a legit global superstar to keep this company going since cena is the 2010s, or brock in the 2020s. Yes at the time I disagree with brock breaking the streak. But he stuck around for 10 years and used it. Finn, shinsuke, aj styles, definitely not kevin owns are getting money pouring in for ppv or wwe network. Let's just be honest with ourselves, brock made a decision to stay with the company and he was the biggest name the company could have and have made them more money then anyone other flipper they could offer. It's not cirus Olay, it's wrestling, gotta have a true badass. Brock kept his word and I guarantee you ain't buying the next bs ppv unless a name like brock is on it.
It would have been perfect for storyline purposes if Taker faced Bray Wyatt and beat him, like he did, but Bray later returned as The Fiend and The Fiend ended the streak.
Roman's had a space shuttle strapped to his back since the first time The Shield split. He did not need to be elevated by breaking the streak, especially since he's broken almost every other record at this point.
Bray Wyatt should have been the one, he has the best character work out of anyone who has ever been in the WWE, if they gave that man free leash, we would have a new unbeatable fenom.
Roman would’ve made the better choice. If he broke the streak and immediately became the tribal chief. That would’ve made more sense of him being as dominant as he was during the tribal chief run.
If the shield broke up and the streak was still going … roman beating the streak then turning heel the following night … might’ve been the ideal way for the streak to end (personally don’t think it should’ve ended tho)
Roman back then would been crucified moreso than he had been at that time, and they still wouldnt make him a heel. They'd still try and force the fans to cheer him. Roman now? 100%. He's a badass, he's over as the biggest heel in the company, and the story of him being undefeated vs the streak is an obvious one. But back then it wouldn't do anything for him except add to his go away heat.
Exactly what I was thinking. That boring, awkward, suffering succotash "babyface" Roman beating the streak would have been 100x worse than Brock beating it but this evil Roman who actually puts on a good show, yeah, that's a little more acceptable.
Roman and Bray Wyatt were perfect choices to end the streak. Roman is... pretty self-explanitory, but Bray Wyatt ending the streak would've been an incredible passing of the torch moment from one supernatural character to another, and would've been incredibly special... but, alas, we live in an inferior timeline, where Brock broke the streak instead... 😭💀💀
Not breaking the streak would have been the stupidest most retarded decision in the history of professional wrestling. Only an idiot or a idiot child would think they shouldn't have broken it.

I think WWE officials were worried about Brock Lesnar losing his unstoppable credibility if he lost a second consecutive time at Wrestlemania since his return. If Brock had defeated Triple H at Wrestlemania 29 maybe they would have been more willing to let him lose the next year and give the streak to another young talent. However Triple H would also have earned three consecutive losses at Wrestlemania.
Should of had Shawn break it in a 3rd attempt. The story line could of been Undertaker vs a mystery opponent. Or could of had an Undertaker vs somebody set up but for absolutely no reason at all Shawn's music hits and fight is on. The next week you can make up some random reason for why he replaced the guy lol. Fans won't care what the reason is it could even be a bad one that makes no sense and they won't care. They would love it
Taker is a great guy that he will always try to do the best for the brand but honestly it either should never have been broken or only one loss to a certified legend like Cena, Edge etc.
Roman should've been the first to do it and then turn heel. "This is my yard now" was the hottest thing Roman had done/said at the time. Taking all that hate and boos from the crowd for so long, only to say those 5 words and get the crowd to turn ridiculous was absolutely fantastic. Had he turned heel back then and gotten the Tribal Chief gimmick he has now, that would've been one of the best storylines in WWE history. Roman has showcased his talents with the gimmick now, imagine if he had that gimmick with the heat of breaking the streak
If they were gonna decide to break it, should've been when he hit 24-0 then end the streak 24-1. To me would've made more sense. He didn't have to suffer 2 loses at Mania. I agree, Bray or Roman. But only heel Roman.
Bray winning would’ve made sense, but only if it were Taker’s final match at WrestleMania. That match would’ve gone over so much better if it had the passing of the torch element between two supernatural figures, plus Bray ending the streak. But with the Streak out of the picture, there wasn’t anything there beyond the supernatural elements.
Given the scenario of WrestleMania 30 , when WWE universe was rallying behind Daniel bryan and the yes movement , and the only thing matter was Daniel completing his triumphant story that night , the twist of ending the streak was a moment no one saw coming . And the decision was the right one .
Too bad ur fav, HBK will disagree with ur opinion and he wanted to RETIRE. Randy Orton, Roman Reigns, Batista and Bray Wyatt are far more deserving of breaking the streak because it would of elevated their careers far more than HBK’s.
The streak never should've ended. And it baffles me how people used to say it should've been Cena to end it. What sense would that have made? Lesnar and Taker had multiple feuds over the years. Kane, Triple H, and Shawn Michaels had several feuds with Taker over the years. Even Vince and Shane McMahon had several feuds with Taker. How many feuds did Cena and Taker have? Fucking 1, way back in 2003. *Update* R.I.P to Bray. Brock definitely didn't need it. Personally I still think it should have been Kane even though he didn't need it either. At that time, it should have been Bray, no offense to Roman but, he didn't deserve it then.
THANK GOD it was not Roman.. THANK GOD HE WAS NOT THE ONE... For Bray it would be really interesting as "The new Face of Fear" and all.. But damn. We will never know now T_T rip Bray.
Me personally I always felt like the Streak should've never been broken. That probably makes me look biased but idc....Undertaker put enuff work in over the yrs to where he deserved that distinction. Now Wrstlemania doesn't feel the same anymore to me...
With the legend of the undertaker, the streak should’ve never been broken. With someone so dedicated to the company with the story line of a legend why ruin something that would hallmark history in the industry.
To all the morons including the ones who wrote the storylines at wwe It should have been CM PUNK Vince, hhh, undertaker had big noses.. Paul heyman and few others pointed that out. For wrestling followers like me and the rest, this is what we wanted.. Punk deserved a Wrestlemania hot spot for genuinely working in wwe from low down the roster to the top spot. Putting punk over would have easily made him the next John Cena. It would have been way much easier than forcibly handling the torch to Roman Reings who suffered a lot of fan backlash, man the guy was pushed like anything yet was booed out and was not accepted for a long time even after putting down many hall of fame class wrestlers like hhh, John cena, undertaker, boby lashely, Goldberg,edge just to name a few. I mean why spend so much on a wrestler whom the audience failed to accept rather than just giving the right push to the guy who was already a huge superstar having a tremendous fan following. May be punk really wasn't a good ass kisser after all. All said and done as cena said in one of his promos it almost took Rooman 10 years to get to this level.. This was a period when WWE was shit at story telling..
I lover Underwear as much as the next guy. But Ramon Noodles beating him during WeenieHut Juniors woulda made it impossible for anyone to take him seriously and not see everything as a massive push. Edit: what I'm saying is I disagree with Undy's opinion here.

Reigns needed that win.
Bray Wyatt deserved it .
FUCKING FACTS!!
bray would’ve been huge if they had him beat cena at wm 30 then break the streak at 31
It would’ve been better if Romain ended it
@@vato3328 Romain lettuce?
@@AidanHutchinson-wncp3po was that supposed to be funny cause is not
Definitely BRAY IT JUST MADE SENSE
Of the two it should have been Bray. The narrative at the time was that Bray was the ‘new’ Undertaker and it would have cemented it. Roman was already destined for his top spot. Bray made it part of his character that he was overlooked, it’s what his second match at mania with Cena was about. Had he been the guy to break the streak it would have shot him to the moon instead of being misused for so long.
They shouldn't have broken the streak at all, but no one will ever equal 21-0.
They definitely should have, because it was the biggest rub ever built up in the history of professional wrestling. It would have been an incredible waste, a waste of undertaker's entire career, to not use the breaking of the streak like that. It would have all been for nothing, if they didn't break the streak. It would have been saying that Undertaker's whole career never really meant anything, and that all the blood sweat and tears he put in over 3 decades wasn't important or meaningful.
Never in the entire history of professional wrestling worldwide, had been built up as big as Taker's streak. They HAD to use it, otherwise what would have been the point of it all?
Not using it would be like climbing up almost the entirety of mount everest, but then when you're just a couple of yards below the peak of the mountain, you decide to end your climb there and turn back, so that you never actually climb to the top of mount everest but just 99.99% of it. Why wouldn't you just climb up those extra few yards to get to the very top of the mountain? If you actually turned back then, then it would have meant all the incredibly strenuous effort you put in over the days and weeks of being there climbing would have been for nothing. No, nobody would ever climb up it but then turn around only a few yards from the peak.
And similarly, breaking undertaker's streak was the biggest deal in the history of wrestling. They'd put in decades of very hard work to build it up, and you're just gonna not use it right at the end when you could give someone the biggest rub the business has ever seen? Then what was the point of doing the streak in the first place!?
I don't think Brock was the best decision for who to end the streak, but I think it's worked out very well. Since he broke the streak he's remained as the final boss of WWE, the guy everyone has to beat to reach the top of the roster. WWE have been able to use Brock time and time and time again to lose to the next big thing in the company, the next top guy, and so despite Brock losing a fair amount, he still remains very credible as an undefeatable-seeming beast of a man. They've got a whole decade of use of Brock as the ultimate jobber ever. And it's because he broke the streak, and so he has permanent credibility forever more, despite how often he loses. So in that sense, WWE got an incredible amount of good, positive things, from having Brock break the streak. So even though I would have picked someone else to break the streak, personally, I think WWE have definitely made great use of Brock being the one, they've really got their money's worth from it, and so it's completely justified in that sense.
@@duffman18 Nah, the streak should have remained unbroken.
@@duffman18No.
Well if they write it in someone will lol
Honestly. And hear me out. It should have been Kane.
When you think of the Brothers of Destruction you think of Taker and Kane.
I think if Kane broke the streak it would have been more satisfying due to their history, and also would have elevated kanes legacy that much more.
Better script imo is,
Someone who need the win (like Mark said like Wyatt or Reigns), THEN somehow got helped by Kane to win.
This way, the winner will receive hate yet a 'higher status'. From here the rest of the story can be anything. Like, give him a redemption arc or sum and eventually fight Kane perhaps?
Idk, although they have history as BOD I don't Kane is the right guy to ended it.
They killed Kane well before that
@NamelessMist kane needed some more development
Kane ending the streak in one of the 2 matches he had with Taker would not have been as big. The streak was still very young by the 2nd time they faced off at mania. The first match Taker was 6-0 going into it and the streak wasn’t even talked about at that point in time. the second match Taker was 11-0 going into it. So no it would not have been as big of a deal as when Brock ended the 21-0 streak. Kane was already finished and buried at that point of his career. Bray Wyatt was still young(Only 25)and being booked horribly. If he had beaten Taker in Brocks place, he would’ve became bigger then he was and won more championships and main evented more Wrestlemanias.
they fucking hate Kane, so annoying 1997 Kane wipes the entire roster today
If Sting should had come earlier to WWE, he should had to be the perfect superstar to end Undertaker’s streak
Undertaker retiring with the streak in tact, would've been the greatest WWE & Wrestlemania feat of all time
RIP Bray
People would've hated Roman forever if he had ended it. Bray is actually a fairly good choice. I'll tell you where they should've ended it. During end of an era match against Triple H with Shawn as the ref. That too me would've been perfect and even in character Undertaker stated "if I felt someone should put me down, Id want it to be you."
Should've given Taker the streak. He Should've gone undefeated.
My Personal opinion he should've retired with the undefeated streak but vince deciding to end it, It Honestly should've been Bray Wyatt ending the streak it would've taking him to the next level in his development and it be like passing the torch moment back then.
No one should have ended it, the streak was legendary, definitely one of the worst decisions in wrestling history
It should have been Kane with both embracing and retiring that night
"It should've been Bray" - NSYNC's new classic changed from "It's gonna be me."
They should've let Undertaker pick the guy who beat the streak.
New era = Roman Reigns
Old era = Kane
I would even give Triple H a honorary mention BUT he was involved in too many jobber matches and belt turns that by the time WrestleMania hit fans would have had Triple H fatigue but he does put on some good matches and he was in that heavy roster that constantly fought each other.
Rock doesn't make sense, Austin either (unless its the Ministry beef), Triple H is kinda a "legend killer" aka "Hunter" i.e. "The Game".
Kane would be the obvious choice for story since that's his brother and equal but fans also getting Kane fatigue and he wasn't as menacing anymore after his many transformations.
Brock was a safe pick, not a bad guy too lose too since he's beast but was a sloppy performance.
The BEST outcome was if Sting wrestled Taker and won, but Vince won't allow his dark prince to be beaten by the WCW goth.
Sting was the better of the dark characters, he had way more personality with his Crow gimmick.
I respect this
I can agree with Taker’s suggestions (Wyatt especially), but WWE really never should’ve ended it. If he had hung it up undefeated it would’ve been a perfect legacy close.
I heard he wanted Randy to do it back in the Legend Killer days.
That would have been insane
Under taker still undefeated in my eyes lol
I wish I meet you ❤️ undertaker
He's not wrong. Brock was a top guy who got a rub he didn't need so could what? Go to SummerSlam and destroy Cena? Which he could have believably done anyway without this extra feather in his cap. It's like putting over Superman on his way to defeating Lex Luthor for the 185th time.
It def helped enhance Brock’s momentum to summerslam against cena but he def didn’t need the win
Brock carried the company for the next 10 years after it happened. Your not buying ppvs or subscription to network without brock being on it. Name on other legit star
@andrewvazquez1936 brock stayed with the company for the next 10 years! You claim all this part time shit, dude, if you watch boxing you get floyd Mayweather twice a year. Brock ruled wwe from the day he came back after wm 28. Yes he broke the streak. But who at that time did you want to beat it that you would pay money to see today??? Who is worth paying money to see today? Roman is like a joke champion that is just getting pushed to keep the company relevant. We know wwe is global, but there is, and hasn't been a legit global superstar to keep this company going since cena is the 2010s, or brock in the 2020s. Yes at the time I disagree with brock breaking the streak. But he stuck around for 10 years and used it. Finn, shinsuke, aj styles, definitely not kevin owns are getting money pouring in for ppv or wwe network. Let's just be honest with ourselves, brock made a decision to stay with the company and he was the biggest name the company could have and have made them more money then anyone other flipper they could offer. It's not cirus Olay, it's wrestling, gotta have a true badass.
Brock kept his word and I guarantee you ain't buying the next bs ppv unless a name like brock is on it.
@andrewvazquez1936 there are no megastar today
@andrewvazquez1936 so who should've broken the streak?
Coming back to watch this hits different now that Bray is no longer with us.
It would have been perfect for storyline purposes if Taker faced Bray Wyatt and beat him, like he did, but Bray later returned as The Fiend and The Fiend ended the streak.
100%
True
It didn't need to be broken. Nobody has become bigger than the streak amongst wrestling fans.
I’d still think Kurt Angle should have ended the streak back in 2006
This would have been the case if it weren’t for Eddie Guerrero’s tragic passing
Imagine the shit Roman would talk. “Man I’ve been holding this belt for 4 years and ended the undertaker. Shawn Michaels had 2 tries and still failed”
Here after, Bray Wyatt's death. He really should've been the one😢
Roman's had a space shuttle strapped to his back since the first time The Shield split. He did not need to be elevated by breaking the streak, especially since he's broken almost every other record at this point.
Bray Wyatt should have been the one, he has the best character work out of anyone who has ever been in the WWE, if they gave that man free leash, we would have a new unbeatable fenom.
Roman would’ve made the better choice. If he broke the streak and immediately became the tribal chief. That would’ve made more sense of him being as dominant as he was during the tribal chief run.
Nobody should of to be fair I think Taker is being modest here, deep down that should of been kept safe and unbroken
If the shield broke up and the streak was still going … roman beating the streak then turning heel the following night … might’ve been the ideal way for the streak to end (personally don’t think it should’ve ended tho)
It wasn’t about who needed it but who was legit enough to break it
Roman back then would been crucified moreso than he had been at that time, and they still wouldnt make him a heel. They'd still try and force the fans to cheer him. Roman now? 100%. He's a badass, he's over as the biggest heel in the company, and the story of him being undefeated vs the streak is an obvious one. But back then it wouldn't do anything for him except add to his go away heat.
Exactly what I was thinking. That boring, awkward, suffering succotash "babyface" Roman beating the streak would have been 100x worse than Brock beating it but this evil Roman who actually puts on a good show, yeah, that's a little more acceptable.
Roman and Bray Wyatt were perfect choices to end the streak. Roman is... pretty self-explanitory, but Bray Wyatt ending the streak would've been an incredible passing of the torch moment from one supernatural character to another, and would've been incredibly special... but, alas, we live in an inferior timeline, where Brock broke the streak instead... 😭💀💀
The first mistake wwe made is breaking taker streak
Not breaking the streak would have been the stupidest most retarded decision in the history of professional wrestling. Only an idiot or a idiot child would think they shouldn't have broken it. They definitely should have broken the streak, because it was the biggest rub ever built up in the history of professional wrestling. It would have been an incredible waste, a waste of undertaker's entire career, to not use the breaking of the streak like that. It would have all been for nothing, if they didn't break the streak.

@@duffman18not to mention, Undertaker himself was all for it being broken
@@duffman18Lol do you work for them. Or are you Mr. Mcman.
I think WWE officials were worried about Brock Lesnar losing his unstoppable credibility if he lost a second consecutive time at Wrestlemania since his return.
If Brock had defeated Triple H at Wrestlemania 29 maybe they would have been more willing to let him lose the next year and give the streak to another young talent.
However Triple H would also have earned three consecutive losses at Wrestlemania.
Would love if it was actually Bray Wyatt. The next one to maintain the fear factor in WWE, he needed it
Should of had Shawn break it in a 3rd attempt. The story line could of been Undertaker vs a mystery opponent. Or could of had an Undertaker vs somebody set up but for absolutely no reason at all Shawn's music hits and fight is on. The next week you can make up some random reason for why he replaced the guy lol. Fans won't care what the reason is it could even be a bad one that makes no sense and they won't care. They would love it
RIP bray wyatt
The streak should’ve never ended.
Rest in peace bray wyatt
Taker is a great guy that he will always try to do the best for the brand but honestly it either should never have been broken or only one loss to a certified legend like Cena, Edge etc.
One of the worst mistakes Vince has ever made. Interesting he mentions Bray, there is a lot of respect for Bray as we saw at RAW
Mark was a true professional
Roman should've been the first to do it and then turn heel. "This is my yard now" was the hottest thing Roman had done/said at the time. Taking all that hate and boos from the crowd for so long, only to say those 5 words and get the crowd to turn ridiculous was absolutely fantastic. Had he turned heel back then and gotten the Tribal Chief gimmick he has now, that would've been one of the best storylines in WWE history. Roman has showcased his talents with the gimmick now, imagine if he had that gimmick with the heat of breaking the streak
Right
Rest in power Bray wyatt/the fiend/windham we will never forget you heavens gate LET HiM iN
I think Kane tbh
But Kane is his storyline brother though, it couldn't be Kane.
Love that he’s only upset that the opportunity to put someone over was wasted.
I'll say it EVERYTIME , it should've been Kane, and it should've been Taker's last wm...... A perfect ending to the storyline.
I'd say kane deserved it the most .
No one should have broken the streak.
If they were gonna decide to break it, should've been when he hit 24-0 then end the streak 24-1. To me would've made more sense. He didn't have to suffer 2 loses at Mania. I agree, Bray or Roman. But only heel Roman.
Bray winning would’ve made sense, but only if it were Taker’s final match at WrestleMania. That match would’ve gone over so much better if it had the passing of the torch element between two supernatural figures, plus Bray ending the streak. But with the Streak out of the picture, there wasn’t anything there beyond the supernatural elements.
Hello my favorite hero 😀😊 I love Undertaker vs Brock Lesnar all matches thank you taker sir ❤
Brock too talented is what hes trying to say
The only person that should have ended the streak was kane himself, in honor of the old times
Still think if it had to be anyone it should've been Shawn, in the return match.
Given the scenario of WrestleMania 30 , when WWE universe was rallying behind Daniel bryan and the yes movement , and the only thing matter was Daniel completing his triumphant story that night , the twist of ending the streak was a moment no one saw coming . And the decision was the right one .
No one should’ve ended it, he should’ve retired undefeated.
But the man who should’ve ended it, Bray
The Fiend ending the streak and retiring Taker would’ve been a crazy passing the torch moment.
Brock was the perfect guy to end it and Roman wasn’t ready for that match
In my opinion it should have been Shawn Michaels in one of those matches they had at wrestlemania in 09’-10’
I wish Shawn Michaels should’ve ended it at WrestleMania 26 because he’s more deserving of that accolade for everything he’s given to the company.
Too bad ur fav, HBK will disagree with ur opinion and he wanted to RETIRE. Randy Orton, Roman Reigns, Batista and Bray Wyatt are far more deserving of breaking the streak because it would of elevated their careers far more than HBK’s.
It should’ve been him. Nobody but him, HHH, or legend killer era Randy Orton deserved to do it in my opinion. Wild cards are Edge and Wyatt.
Hell no to the no.. the dude ruined more careers, then saved
The streak never should've ended. And it baffles me how people used to say it should've been Cena to end it. What sense would that have made? Lesnar and Taker had multiple feuds over the years. Kane, Triple H, and Shawn Michaels had several feuds with Taker over the years. Even Vince and Shane McMahon had several feuds with Taker. How many feuds did Cena and Taker have? Fucking 1, way back in 2003.
*Update* R.I.P to Bray. Brock definitely didn't need it. Personally I still think it should have been Kane even though he didn't need it either. At that time, it should have been Bray, no offense to Roman but, he didn't deserve it then.
I think Bray Wyatt should've been the lne tk break the streak
Roman 2020(beginning of bloodline) should have do that
Kane should have ended it
Finally!!! Someone who agrees!
But Kane is his storyline brother though, it couldn't be Kane.
THANK GOD it was not Roman.. THANK GOD HE WAS NOT THE ONE...
For Bray it would be really interesting as "The new Face of Fear" and all.. But damn. We will never know now T_T rip Bray.
Me personally I always felt like the Streak should've never been broken. That probably makes me look biased but idc....Undertaker put enuff work in over the yrs to where he deserved that distinction. Now Wrstlemania doesn't feel the same anymore to me...
If roman would have done it then we would find him in graveyard already😂
Not funny
@@kingofkings5446you’re right. That’s not funny
Yall anit hard 😅 man please
With the legend of the undertaker, the streak should’ve never been broken. With someone so dedicated to the company with the story line of a legend why ruin something that would hallmark history in the industry.
If Roman snaped streak, wwe universe would lose their minds. He has 5 moves in his moveset
If moveset was the reason to choose a top guy WWE would have died long ago.
To all the morons including the ones who wrote the storylines at wwe
It should have been CM PUNK
Vince, hhh, undertaker had big noses..
Paul heyman and few others pointed that out.
For wrestling followers like me and the rest, this is what we wanted..
Punk deserved a Wrestlemania hot spot
for genuinely working in wwe from low down the roster to the top spot.
Putting punk over would have easily made him the next John Cena. It would have been way much easier than forcibly handling the torch to Roman Reings who suffered a lot of fan backlash, man the guy was pushed like anything yet was booed out and was not accepted for a long time even after putting down many hall of fame class wrestlers like hhh, John cena, undertaker, boby lashely, Goldberg,edge just to name a few.
I mean why spend so much on a wrestler whom the audience failed to accept rather than just giving the right push to the guy who was already a huge superstar having a tremendous fan following.
May be punk really wasn't a good ass kisser after all.
All said and done as cena said in one of his promos it almost took Rooman 10 years to get to this level..
This was a period when WWE was shit at story telling..
He beat Wyatt's ass a year later haha
No need to lose to him now
In all honesty John Cena in his prime with all the hype should have been the guy to do it. If not go undefeated
It should’ve been kane to end the streak since he was the brother of the undertaker in WWE
I lover Underwear as much as the next guy.
But Ramon Noodles beating him during WeenieHut Juniors woulda made it impossible for anyone to take him seriously and not see everything as a massive push.
Edit: what I'm saying is I disagree with Undy's opinion here.
Roman didnt fucking need it.. Bray did
if roman was gonna be the top guy he needed a good taker match to push him over the edge
I’ve heard multiple superstars saying Roman it’s like they saw something that the fans didn’t
If they was going to end it I think John Cena should have ended the streak
"Bray Wyatt, he's going to go to that next level"
*Vince McMahon music hits*
Bray wyatt is the wise decision and best for make dark character hype 😢🔥
He didn't need it but he was the only one with the pedigree and physical prowess to believably beat him
Hey legend undertaker
