Re: Official Undertaker WM Streak Thread - No Other Threads
Make Rock/Cena II 18-20 minutes and it'll deliver in ring wise.

They also had the rematch at Backlash which made this the third Austin/Rock match, not including their DX PPV match and all of their Raw matches. Still that did not hurt the buyrate for Mania 17, if anything it helped it.
And if they do Cena/Rock 2 for the WWE title, they probably will go all out this time. The build-up and thus the actual match as well as the buyrate may very well be better this time.
It seems however that a lot of people seem to forget that Punk/Taker is not the freshest of all pairings as well. They had a feud in 2009 already that turned out ugly for Punk. This is why I'm not looking forward to this match. I'd be a lot more excited for Cena/Rock 2.

Yes but people don't really want to see HHH vs Lesnar or Rock vs Cena because the out comes are so obvious. Everyone will know going into it that Taker, HHH and Cena will win.

i agree no doubt but i said if 2 rematches were on the card as main events then it would do a shitty buyrate. one would be fine, 2 no

Re: Official Undertaker WM Streak Thread - No Other Threads
at least this time they are trying to give The Undertaker a heel to face at Mania, when is the last time that happened? Problem is outside of Brock Lesnar and CM Punk there is nobody else that is legit enough to challenge him, unless they turn John Cena (which very unlikely) or The Rock (also highly unlikely) heel.
Not sure anyone would want to see him face: Wade Barrett, Randy Orton (newly turned heel), Antonio Cesaro, Alberto Del Rio (yeah right), Big Show, or Mark Henry.

Re: Official Undertaker WM Streak Thread - No Other Threads
Last heel Undertaker faced at WrestleMania was in 2008 in the main event with Edge, and that match is fantastic.

Re: Official Undertaker WM Streak Thread - No Other Threads
Dave Meltzer talks to a lot of people backstage at WWE and he's never once reported Brock/Taker. Now, that's strange and info norm gets out about matches are could take place and the observer and other site (PW Insider) have never reported Brock/Taker.
I don't think it'll take place and it'll go like this. Top matches WM 29: Brock/HHH II - Rock/Cena II - Taker/Punk

Re: Official Undertaker WM Streak Thread - No Other Threads
Taker V Punk at WM. I think I might cry tears of joy if it does happen. My two favourites ever going at it on the biggest stage of the year. Epic. Makes up for the lackluster Brock V HHH 2 and Cena V Rock 2.

Thanks.
I'd be completely fine with this. It is a bit hard to buy into the match from the believability aspect of it with the way Punk has been booked as a heel and also given the story arc of the streak. I don't know how they could engage us into believing that Punk could end the streak after the stuff the they worked in the cell match at WM 28. On the other hand, it would definitely be a great match and the heel/face dynamic like others have said, could also help add to the match.
