After Brock Lesnar broke The Streak and I got over my shock, the first question that came to mind was, why couldn't CM Punk end The Streak at Mania 29? I know WWE probably didn't have Lesnar scheduled to break it until about mid-year and Vince wanted to keep The Streak going for as long as humanly possible but, don't you think CM Punk would have been the perfect guy to end The Streak? First of all, the story was amazing with CM Punk stealing "Paul Bearer's ashes" and than literally dumping them on Taker after attacking him. THIS was the angle that should have led to The Streak ending because it was a once in a lifetime angle for Taker (Paul Bearer being the "only one that Taker ever cared about") and CM Punk was easily the best heel in the company. This also may have kept Punk content because he would have finally been given the "respect he deserves" and people would have been much more happy with this outcome I believe.
Sure Punk is no Lesnar stature-wise but if you can believe Shawn Michaels can brake The Streak, than you can believe CM Punk could do it too.
On the other hand this could have ended in disaster as well, as Punk may have left the company anyway taking The Streak with him.
Question: Would you have rather The Streak ended last year or are you happy with Brock Lesnar being the 1 in 21?
