Any thoughts on this? We're getting closer and closer to WM25, and Undertaker does not have a set opponent for Grand Daddy of 'em all yet. Who do you think he should face this year, what kind of match should it be, and do you think he should win in order for his streak to continue?
I think I know who he should face: Kozlov. I think this one is a no-brainer, and let me explain why. First off, I do not think he should be in another world title match for the 3rd year in a row. He went over Batista at WM 23 and Edge at WM 24 the last two years- another title match for him would be old and stale, not to mention pretty predictable. I mean, I know alot of people want to see him in another title match, but just not this year, not for the 3rd year in a row. But then, where does that leave him for this year's WM? I think the best option that the WWE should go with for 'Taker is to pit him against Kozlov, another wrestler who is boasting an undefeated streak- I mean, this guy just went over HHH! It could be WM Streak vs. Undefeated Streak in one of the Undertaker's most challenging WM matches yet. Of course 'Taker would defeat him and finally bring his streak to an end, but it would be epic. They could play off it being America vs. Russia, with Undertaker utilizing some of his American Badass moves during the match, such as The Last Ride. WWE could make this match HUGE, they could make it one of the top matches of the night if they hyped/built it up enough in the weeks leading up to 'Mania. They could even have Kozlov become an uber heel in the preceeding weeks that tries to gain respect for himself by doing things that disrespect America, like trying to burn the American flag, and then 'Taker could come out and stop him and tell him that he can earn respect in a 'Mania match against him. They could make this feud get really personal, with the Undertaker acting a little bit out of character, and not delivering his usual soul-stealing promos. They could even make the matchup a hardcore match if they wanted to. It would be awesome, it would be another classic WM match for 'Taker.
Do you agree? What are your own thoughts on Undertaker's WM25 opponent?
