Let me start up by saying that I was never truly excited to see Brock Lesnar feud withThe Undertaker.
The Rock vs Brock Lesnar was supposed to be the original planned match for WMXXX and a match like that would've definitely broken many records.
However, this isn't the case for this match.
Taker's drawing abilities are nowhere close to Rock's.
Says who? You know the inner workings of the wwe do you.
Oh wait I'm sorry. You read it on wrestlezone or another website told you. Cause they've never been wrong have they.
This match won't help further either men's legacy.
Yes it does. It furthers undertakers.
So basically why have this match in the first place?
Because its a draw. Brock lesner is world reknown for what he did in ufc. More people know who Brock leaner is than all but 2 or 3 of the wwe roster.
The undertaker is a household name. Whether you like it or not. If you ask non wrestling fans to name 3 wrestlers who have been in wwe most would say undertaker among those 3. Along with probably hogan and the rock.
The Undertaker has been returning for the last 4 years around the same time (Road to WrestleMania) only to roll his eyes, do his lame 40 minute entrance, talk on the mic for 1 minute before saying his lame catchphrase (RIP), beating someone at WrestleMania, taking his big fat paycheck and leaving the rest of the year to spend it on his bimb0 wife.
A nice mature statement there. The reason is....it works. Undertaker is a huge nostalgia act. Its what happens in wrestling. It gets repetitive. But people like taker so much they just don't care.
Taker is extremely boring.
That's your opinion, and I have mine. I think he's extremely entertaining.

In those few seconds you read those dots the first thing you thought was "this guys a fucking undertaker fanboy"
Well yes I am. I enjoy who I enjoy but I can understand why some don't like certain wrestlers like cena, punk, Bryan etc. I can also understand why some dislike undertaker. Just you have an idiotic approach to it.
That's my opinion
His feud with Lesnar sucked.
He completely buried him, beating him up 4 weeks in a row then getting F5d and now will bury him at WrestleMania.
Ahhh that word again. Buried. I do love when certain iwc members use that word and they have no clue what being buried is.
Taking one loss or a few losses in a feud does NOT mean they are buried. Leaner is still a threat and still relevant. He is still looking strong especially after the f5 this week. Here's how this storyline had panned out
Leaner is such a badass he believes he can beat the streak.
Taker accepts his challenge.
Taker proceeds to play mind games on Brock lesner to a point it looks like leaner is wondering if he can stop the undertaker.
Bam, lesner hits his finisher and makes it look like he can beat taker. He goes into wrestlemania full of confidence with people realising taker can be taken out.
Its basic story telling. Nothing over the top. Nothing complex but it works. But not for you. So tell me. How would you of booked it?
And don't do the standard game of one upsmanship as most people do. Cause that really is boring!
If taker beats Brock down and makes him look weak. That's being buried. Taking a loss is not a burial.
He's too old, he's not increasing ratings or putting anyone over.
He may not increase ratings. But no one does these days. Ratings don't matter now. Or they matter much much much less than they did 15 years ago
Ppv buyrates on the other hand. I guarantee more people buy wrestlemania knowing takers on the card than if he's not.
And he's been putting people over for 20 years. He has amassed a phenomenal legacy and will go down as the greatest character ever. Because he is that well known.
You don't need to win a match to be put over either. Look at what taker did with John cena in 2003. Lol at what he did with Jeff hardy in 2002. The shield last year.
He made them all look very good. Especially hardy. Hardy and cena didn't win their matches. But they came out looking amazing. And bigger stars than they were before.
Sorry but Taker can't convince me whatsoever that The Streak is going to end.
Last year, I saw people next to me jumping out of their seats and going nuts for every "false finish" in the Taker-Punk match.
I didn't believe for one second that Punk was going to end the streak especially the way they made it about Taker fighting for Paul Bearer, no way was he going to lose.
Its not takers job to convince you really. Its the opponents. And the booking.
They jump out of their seats do they? Do you know why? Its because they're not on a fucking pedestal and enjoying the programming in front of them. No one thought punk would win. But you know what, they are allowed to enjoy themselves and believe it may be broken.
You reallllly need to stop judging others for what they do to enjoy the show. Especially as it sounds like all you did last year was sit in your seat with your arms folded with a face like a slapped arse.
After Taker kicking out of the Sweet Chin Music then the Pedigree at WM28, I was convinced The Streak will never end
Good. IMO it never should end.
Give me a break. I'm just stating my opinion.
Have I gone too far with insulting Taker? Probably but I'm trying to prove a point.
It's just absurd at this point for people to continue marking out for Taker.
It's the same story being repeated in front of our own eyes every year.
Insulting taker doesn't prove a point. It just makes you look like a little twatbag
People Like undertaker. If you can't handle that, try watching cricket. Fans of that dont seem to get so pissed off about other teams.
They like it because its simple nostalgia. Which once a year with the biggest star of wrestlemania is perfectly fine.
In closing. Get off your high horse. You don't like undertaker. We get that. But he's here and will be at wrestlemania every year for the foreseeable future.
Have your little rants where you have no clue on how to formulate your arguments without resulting to little digs at his wife. At the end of the day, she's probably better than anything you may come or have come close to in your lifetime.
