BURN IT DOOOWWNNNNNNNN!

I always thought that if the streak was to end, it should be a star on the rise, but I completely agree with them opposing that idea since it would a complete waste that that wrestler turned out to be a complete bust. |

I definitely wouldn't have DiBiase break Undertaker's streak. He's one of the newer additions to the WWE roster, and I haven't been impressed from what I've seen from him so far. The streak should remain forever. End of discussion. |

The problem is if you give the win to a guy on the rise he may never rise to main event then you have a midcarder as the person who beat takers streak taht would really sthink. |

If it were to be someone, it would have to be someone extremely special. I don't see the likes of a Hardy, or Rhodes, or even Punk to do the job. If it were to end, then I would agree with a break out star, however, not Ted DiBiase. He would be molded into a Randy Orton type character, but in the end, it wouldn't work out. WWE need someone like a Sabin or even a Shelley from TNA, to think about molding and doing the job. |

I also said in another thread that, if it had to be anybody, it should be Edge. Right now, I think he's on the tip between very good star of today, and very great star of the decade. Especially how his past few years have been with winning the titles. I think him beating The Undertaker would elevate him even higher; he's pretty much a sure thing at this point, and he has the best character to where he could probably use it to his advantage better than anyone else right now. Of course, he had to lose to 'Taker last year...

I've been saying it should be Edge subce the last WrestleMania. All the groundwork is being laid to make it possible and have it make sense, what with Edge being Undertaker's most intense feud possibly since Kane in the late 90s. Plus, Edge is pretty much guaranteed to be a main eventer for the forseeable future, so it wouldn't be a waste. It could take Edge from being a main eventer to starting his path to becoming a legend. |

I see the point there, Edge would be a hall of fame guy if he were to beat Taker. That would be special. |

NO!!! His last match should be a Wrestlemania one and he should win it ... he should never EVER lose his streak ... that'd just be a shame!! He's legendary for that, of course among other things but still you can't take that away from him. |

Edge. MVP currently has heat backstage and Kennedy get's injured more than Ashley. He could definetly be a wwe legend if he beats Taker at WM. |

If Undertaker was to keep his streak into retirement, what good would that do anyone? Undertaker would have that under his name, but seeing that he's already approaching a streak of two decades of WrestleMania wins. one loss at the final one wouldn't cause much damage. Plus, Undertaker would have little to benefit from it seeing that he'd be retired. Everyone else? Sure, WWE could boast about the great undefeated streak of Undertaker's but other than that, what is there? Basically, it'd be bragging rights for the past. Very little would come out of his streak when Taker's career is all said and done with. By giving one loss to someone like Edge at Taker's final WrestleMania, he'd have the legendary streak that will never be touched up until his final Mania and someone would benefit greatly from it since it pretty much is the biggest accomplishment anyone could have in wrestling since it's yet to happen and will probably only happen once if it does. To not have someone end it would be a waste. |

Evan Bourne? Well, he is WWE's light version of AJ Styles... but still, nah... Anyways, ending Taker's streak can go two ways, regardless of who ends it. You either get hugely over or you fuck up in the process. The safest choice would probably be to keep the streak. It's risky to have someone end it, but it could be successful or not. It really would be fucked up if whoever defeated Taker at 'Mania either retires from the business like The Rock, gets a injury that forces to retire from wrestling forever or dies a few months after ending the streak. |

But then if you're paranoid like that thinking about all the possible outcomes and dwelling on them, then no good comes from it at all. A lot of bad things could happen should you make a guy world champ, or push them to the main event, or make them the new face of the company. Sometimes you just have to take a risk and sometimes the rewards can be very much worth it. |

Did someone say Alex Shelly?
Anyway. Definitly, what everyone is saying is right, fuck the up and comers. We don't know whats gonna happen. And Vince is right, Dibiase won't be there by next year. Sure he "COULD" be the next Randy Orton, and I've said it several time that its easy to tell that Dibiase has molded him self after Orton. But shit, why not have The Randy Orton do it. I know they probably don't want someone who has already lost to Taker to be the guy who does it, but Orton, Edge and maybe even Kane are the best options to do the deed. HBK is out of the question though, I mean come on if he did it, it would just be too much already. Shawn is set for life. Triple H, well I would be for it, but I know alot of the stick in the ass, panzy bitches would be all "thats not fair, Triple H is burrying people" so it's probably best to stay away from that. So when I think of the options, number 1 is Edge for the reasons already said. He just needs that one extra thing to push him into legendary status, and I for one would love to see it happen. Number two is Randy Orton. Nobody really cares about the douchbag fools who still think he's boring and not entertaining. Those people put that label on him years ago and refuse to see past it. The fact of the matter is. Randy Orton has become the best wrestler in the WWE over the past two years. He kick in the head character was one for the ages. And his title reign, even though it got off to a bad start, ended up really good. Randy Orton was able to improve on levels that Batista and Cena were unable to do, and Randy Orton was not ready for an honor like that at WM 21. He is now. Give it to him, the guy has greatness written all over him. |

You can not be serious with that. While I like The MCMG's as much as anyone, they are no where near the level of the Undertaker in star power. They will never be that level of Main Event. If they were in the WWE now, they would be Paul London. To me, as of right now, there are a select few that would get that victory at WM over Taker: Edge, Batista, John Cena or Randy Orton and possibly Chris Jericho. Edge has a history with Taker and that victory would solidify his career. He would forever be a top WWE star. Batista is a top guy, but he needs one more feud to push him further. Beating the Undertaker would do that. Cean has been the WWE company boy alongside HHH for sometime now. HHH doesn't need that victory. Cena could make much better use of it. He is the Hulk Hogan of this era and beating the Undertaker would make him the top face to beat from that point on. Randy Orton may benefit the most from that win. he has faced the Undertaker at WM. The UT injured him there. He is currently on the pinnacle of true Main Event status. In my eyes, he was pushed to the main event and World title way too soon. Now, he has really positioned himself well. Beating the Undertaker at WM would be all the Legend Killer would need to shoot him to the top spot. The only problem I see is that he has has some run ins and suspensions that make it a dangerous play. If you give him that victory, he has to be the company man that won't screw it up by doing something stupid. As long as he can do that, I have no problem with Orton getting that win. Chris Jericho is the wildcard. He is the first Undisputed Champion. This feud with Shawn Michaels could be the thing that pushes him to that top heel status. He has the talent and charisma to be the kind of superstar the WWE loves to back. He has proven that he will put anyone over that the WWE wants him to. Beating the Undertaker at WM could propel him and his career to an all time high. |

Actually, Orton's not bad of an idea either. I think he's in a similar boat than Edge. Right now I think Orton's on a bit smaller level than Edge (since he hasn't been constantly at the top and all that stuff) but they're both similar because when they are healthy, they are seen around the top, and can easily be the top star if pushed correctly. A win over 'Taker, especially with the Legend Killer history (which is what I think got him in the original match against 'Taker in the first place) would only solidify his streak. |

The problem with Batista is that he's old and I think that in a few years, he won't be at WWE anymore. If he was younger, then yeah he could do it. Whoever beats Taker at 'Mania could be a heel for the rest of their career, or not always? |

There is always the possibility of turning Taker heel so that when he loses the fans want to see it too. |

I don't think you can turn 'Taker heel. The only time the fans wouldn't want him to win in any match is if he killed somebody or something... |

They do it all the time. They have plenty of time to do it also. All he has to do is beat the shit out of Jeff Hardy then choke slam Maria. Boom, he's heel. Fans boo him. |

He'll have to do something more than beat up Jeff Hardy and Maria. Injure a bigger star... probably a storyline where Taker injures Triple H's quad (again, but not legit) and say he doesn't feel sorry for that. |

No he really wouldn't. People say that stuff all the time. They won't boo HBK or Rocky or SCSA, yet they all turned heel and all got booed. Taker has been heel several times and could easily be heel again. |

I still don't see it without a character change. Remember when he still got cheered when he almost "killed" Paul Berar back in '04? |

It won't work. Like I said before with Micheals when people didn't beleive me. Some guys are going to be cheered and loved forever. There is a reason Shawns last heel run lasted all but a month. Undertaker and Shawn Micheals wil never be booed again. |

Yeah but if you turn Taker heel it'll be hard to build a Mania match with him vs Edge or Orton. |

Yeah, and remember, the only real heel heat he got was when he went to Canada... and mocked Bret Hart. So it's not like beating up Hulk Hogan really got much of a negative reaction out of a lot of people.
Yeah, I think that's a big thing being overlooked. I think it's in reference to if he would face someone like Batista or Cena. But even then, when it was face vs. face Batista got booed.

If it was heel vs face, batista will still get booed. Taker will never be heel again, i dont even know why were talking about it. And ya, Shawn will still get booed in Canada. I mean come on, were me here. It's different, we dont praise people who call themselves boy toy. Unless its Qubec. |

The statement was just brought up that Undertaker couldn't be turned. I think he can. So, if he were heel, you'd probably be setting up a match with Cena or Batista. HBK's last heel turn lasted a month because they needed him to play the heel role against Hogan. He did that and then went back to face. But, I do think that Orton and Edge are the two most likely to beat the Undertaker, with Jericho and HHH as outside shots. Edge and Orton would gain the most. I'm thinking that the WWE would pick Edge. He would be huge then and he hasn't had the history behind the scenes that Orton has had so that makes Edge the safer pick. |

How about a gimmick change for Taker? Make him a biker again, he'll get more mic time and try to work his heel turn. |
