I enjoy the ridiculous suggestions for 'Taker's opponent much more than the serious ones. Dan Spivey would be hilarious. Dude hobbles down to the ring to silence, gingerly climbs into the ring, Undertaker chokeslams him. 1, 2, 3. TWENTY AND ZERO, MOTHERfuckER!

Ultimate Warrior (wearing ultra-conservative business suit) stuffing HIM in a coffin to end his career would be so bizarre there's no way I wouldn't love it.

Brian Lee returns as the true Undertaker in a rip-off of the Spider-Man clone saga. The Undertaker we've been watching since Summerslam '94 has been the fake one the whole time!

How about DDP and Sara teaming up against him?
 
[quote name='KaneRobot']It really does kind of have to be Cena I'd think for next year's match. They know they still have that money match waiting and Undertaker's time is rapidly running out.[/QUOTE]

Truth. Not the kind of truth I care for, but still truth. Anyone in charge of WWE's roster would be insane to not promote that feud.
 
Miz is on Conan, and the more I look at the WWE title, he's carrying a replica. It's got a sticker on the back of it.

Edit: Also, he just dubbed Conan the Ginja Ninja.
 
For me, the problem with the speculation at this point all goes back to that story about Taker's health. If that was true and he's really never going to be 100% ever again, he's basically going to need to be carried through a match. It's the reason for the street fight this year, but I can't imagine what it would be like a year from now. If that shoulder is really fucked the way the report said, he's never really going to be able to have a 5-Star HBK-level match again.

So, let's figure it this way... I think we can all agree that Taker has one year left *MAYBE*. He's not going past 20-0, if he even makes it to that. Since we've used the street fight excuse this year, I'm going to assert that if next year is the last one, it'll be a Hell in a Cell match. It's big, flashly, very closely associated with Taker, and can go far in covering up any mobility problems Taker has. Who it would be against, I have no idea. Given his health, Taker really needs a 'partner' in these things to work the match, so the days of tossing someone like Mark Henry at him are over. It also has to have star power. So, we need a big star that can actually work a match.

... yeah. I'm not even going to attempt to figure out who fits that description on the current roster. Shit, maybe they'll just throw together Taker/HHH 2.


Overall, this match bugs me. It bugs me because if we know that Taker doesn't have a lot of time left, so does WWE. It really begs the question of why they'd just completely toss together this match for this Mania, especially when both guys had ready made feuds to pick up upon a return. HHH *should've* been going after Sheamus. Taker *should've* been getting revenge on Kane. However, they scuttled both of those plans for this match. So, what is it... did they seriously have so little confidence in this WM that they wanted a huge starpower match, or does someone know something we don't? Honestly, if I were booking and knew these guys were both going to be around next year with one of them likely to retire, I would've saved this for WM28. Toss a random at Taker to get him through this year, possibly the rumored Barrett match, and then go all out next year. So, like I said... this bugs me. I don't want to be conspiracy guy, but I truly wonder if this is going to end up being a WM19 scenario where this is booked to be either HHH or Taker's last match, but they just haven't told anyone. Taker can't go much longer, and HHH... well, look, HHH is always going to be around, but his behavior the last few weeks has been weird. The tearing up, the talking about how this could be his last time in the ring in that building... this is shit that people building to a retirement stipulation match do. Since there's been no mention of it, it's strange. Add to all of that the fact that it's heavily rumored it'll be the final match on the card, and....

I don't know, maybe after being fooled last year I'm looking for things that just aren't there. I admit it, I was a total mark last year and didn't for one second believe Michaels would actually be retiring. Perhaps I've gone too far the other way. Regardless, I still have a gnawing feeling that there's more to this match-up than we've been lead to believe. Guess we'll find out.
 
It should be Daniel Bryan if we're talking match quality.

It should John Cena if we're talking match hype.

Has Cena ever beat Taker?

Yeah, I was thinking it was a replica as well. When it was laying flat on Conan's desk it looked really thin compared to the real belt.

You know, it makes me wonder, just how much is that championship belt worth if they don't trust him to carry it around.
 
Funny you posted that because I am currently reading the Hitman's book and he talks about all of the cartoons he has drawn throughout his career.

I see this being HHH's last match more than Taker's. I also don't want another Taker HBK just yet... I know there isn't a lot of time left for it to happen, and I know it would be another 5 star classic, but HBK doesn't need to be the one to beat the sreak, it adds nothing to his career.

I also hate that the most logical choice for someone to actually beat it is Cena.
 
Reading this thread, I'm consistently baffled by the number of people who talk about the streak ending.

It. will. not. end.

Really, some of you *seriously* think Taker is going to retire as 18-1 or 19-1?
 
Maybe Shawn Michaels runs to the ring and gives both of them some Sweet Chin Music and the match ends with both of them broken and beaten, the streak stays alive at 18-0 and they can both go away.

In the Top 50 documentary I watched on Netflix Jericho said Undertaker would not want to end undefeated.

How will they possibly give him the proper send-off if the streak is never broken? His last match almost has to be at Mania. But what could the stipulation possibly be? If Taker wins he can retire?!

There needs to be a passing of the torch. Someone who is also undefeated at Mania needs to pick up the streak. They play up the whole supernatural bit with Taker, so how about having the person who finally beats Taker at Mania inheret the "streak."

Sorry... that's just the way I would book it.
 
[quote name='basilofbkrst']In the Top 50 documentary I watched on Netflix Jericho said Undertaker would not want to end undefeated.[/QUOTE]

True, but I think it was more in the context of "I think...", not as if he was revealing some great secret that Taker had imparted to him. I do agree with Jericho, though, in that Taker's hope is that there would be someone worthy of stepping up and taking that honor. Problem is, there doesn't seem to be anyone.

While I'm usually a big supporter of going out on your back, this is a special case. The streak has become much more a 'thing' that it ever has been in the past and, frankly, I think it would hurt someone to beat it more than it would help them. I don't disagree with WWE when they talk about it being the highest honor is wrestling at this point. It is. Problem being, it's been built *too* much. There's no one in the current landscape, or even on the horizon, that deserves quite the boost it would give them. After the past few years, it's not just about beating Taker, it's about being better than anyone that's come before. They'd be doing what HHH failed to do. What HBK, who WWE promotes as the BEST GUY THEY'VE EVER HAD, couldn't do TWICE in a row. There's just so much behind it now that it's *too* big of an honor.

Which is why it needs to not end. No younger guy is prepared or deserving of it, and no veteran should have it. It's Taker's thing. Period. This way, when they talk about WM, they can always talk about his accomplishment... the man who went undefeated at WrestleMania. From a historical and even business standpoint, they're actually better off letting it stand. Ten years ago? Wouldn't be as big of a deal. Now? Too big. Way, way too big.

Taker retires undefeated at Mania. Period. Anything else is an 'Invasion'-level mistake.
 
Well, nobody wants to go home after last call empty handed, but many people regret their decisions when they see what they wake up next to.

Shouldn't be Cena to end the streak.
 
Taker vs. Jericho could be great IMO, as could Taker vs. Christian.

I'd love for it to be a younger or less used talent because even though that person will indeed lose it'll make them a star.

Christian will probably never get pushed that hard though, but Morrison has a shot. *crosses fingers*

A friend of mine says it'll be someone like JBL. UGH. Please god no.
 
That's a bit melodramatic. I'd say the streak shouldn't be broken simply for the fact that it would be good material for their future fluff DVDs. Other than that, big accomplishments in a fake sport mean nothing. They're almost always heavily padded anyway. Do it for the fanfare and money making, but not because it means something.
 
I don't understand why you guys think it matters who ends Undertaker's streak. We all (should) know that it won't mean a thing three weeks after it happens.
 
So I'm assuming no one expects Triple H to win then?

I'm with 007. The streak isn't ending. It's too much of a feel-good moment to throw away.

In fact I'll say it. I want Undertaker to go 20-0. fuck whoever he goes against next year.
 
i don't know about you, but HHH was off tv for nearly a year, he came back, and I'm kinda meh on the whole thing.

Oh, hey, he's spittin' water and wearing a leather jacket and pointing at his dick. I like it when the Rolling Stones play "Gimmie Shelter" because it's a fucking classic. Triple H's promos and presence outside of the ring don't move me in the same way. Same with Orton. They're simply not classics.

The only thing he's done is sing his greatest hits and squash Ted DiBiase. When you squash someone that is beneath Primo Colon on the card, you're not gonna get the crowd riled up.

Cena did an interview with newsday.com where he said he wouldn't win if put up against him.

WWE Superstar John Cena recently commented on his feelings about a match against The Undertaker at a future WrestleMania in an interview with Newsday.com. “Nooooo, he just doesn’t lose. That’s not a profitable night for anyone,” stated Cena.

Didn't you watch Monday? Arn Anderson compared the streak to winning 18 straight Super Bowls.
 
Off topic but Arn Anderson is such an interesting case. Talented guy but in my opinion as boring as off-white paint. Would he have been bigger without Ric Flair? Would he have even done what he's done *without* Ric Flair?

He has that Benoit persona. Or Benoit had the Arn Anderson persona.
 
Miz has to be the dumbest name ever for a wrestler. Seeing that Conan is actually taller was kinda funny though.

I always enjoyed Anderson for what he was, a really good 'enforcer' type. He wasn't really flashy, but he looked like a guy that was beating the shit out of his opponents, which is what he needed to be. He was never going to be a main eventer or anything, but he was always a hugely solid tag team division or mid-card guy.

For me, a guy like that doesn't need a huge excess of personality... just like the Benoit comparison. Both Anderson and Benoit are people I enjoyed immensely mainly for their in-ring style. Still, Anderson actually had way, way, way more personality than Benoit ever did, and is actually pretty good on the mic.

I admit that most of what I've seen of Anderson in his prime has been on video. I really started getting heavy into wrestling right around the time he retired, so I never got a ton of 'live' Arn. I've never seen a Brainbusters match that I didn't enjoy the shit out of though.

Oh, and that spinebuster? Gold. Someone posted it a while back, but that Anderson run-in during the Taker/Flair WM match is still one of my favorite moments ever. So good.

The fact that we're discussing the streak means that it does in fact mean something. Obviously it doesn't mean that UT literally beat up 18 guys without losing, or that he could outside of a professional wrestling match. It means that...

1. The biggest wrestling company on the planet sees Undertaker as possibly their biggest/best talent, at least on their biggest stage

and

2. We collectively buy into him in pretty much the same context. Looking back, there hasn't been a WM match that I wanted Undertaker to lose (certainly not since they started talking about the streak). I want the streak to continue because I have a tremendous amount of respect for him as a performer.

Conan is 6'4" and Miz is 6'1".

It's always freaky when Conan stands next to someone, because for some reason I have it in my head that he's a little guy, but he's an orange haired giant. He should have put that animal fur looking thing back on and wrestled Miz.
 
[quote name='007']Oh, and that spinebuster? Gold.[/QUOTE]

Indeed. Arn was excellent on his own. I hated, hated, HATED the Brainbusters when they beat Demolition for the tag team titles at SNME in a 2 out of 3 falls match.

But by the time he served as a frequent defender of the NWA (WCW by that point?) Television title on Worldwide on Saturday mornings, I knew I was watching someone very special in the ring - even when that was in my youth, and I knew nothing about workrate or whathaveyou (not that I do now, but it wasn't in my vocabulary then).

DO THE MATH. TNA+Russo=Failure

What an awful television show. Anderson beats up a fake professor, yells, bitches, complains more, has a chance to get a rematch FAIRLY, still can't' do it, blames everyone but himself, attacks anyone he wants to...WHY IS HE A FACE!? We've got another stupid concussion angle, and maybe the day will come when one is done well, but RVD, with his. Limited. Acting. Skill. Isn't the guy to do it, dude. Okada/Okato being FINE after being viciously beaten was just stupid. Ref only DQing Pope for one illegal thing, but after he did five billion other illegal things, was also stupid. Then Joe took nine hours to SAVE HIS FRIEND WHO WAS CLEARLY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING. Now, granted, Joe hasn't been in a TNA ring in a while, so he might've forgotten how to get there, but I'm sure he should've found it faster than last week's mysterious darkened room.

I had no idea Mexican America was even coming out for a match since it began with Hernandez cutting a promo and then dropping two flags. Then for some reason, Devon was Morgan's partner. Then, for some reason, Velvet came to help, and then, for some reason, presumably magical powers, Angelina, looking either under a spell or emaciated, I'm not sure which, came out and didn't help. Then, FOR SOME REASON FOR THE THOUSANDTH TIME BECAUSE NOTHING IN THIS MATCH MADE ANY GODDAMN SENSE AT ALL, Winter came out and yelled. Oh, and it was a street fight. Taz noted it, said Devon was PERFECT for it...then Devon did his wacky spinny elbow thingy. And Morgan did his elbows in the corner WITH HIS BACK TO HIS OPPONENT. Probably not a good move in a real street fight. Oh, and the wizard of Oz might've rung the bell. Someone did. They teased the Wizard of Oz, and it might've been him, or the same person who drove the Hummer, gave Hogan a hummer, was the higher power, or something. Mickie-Tara was good, Madison looked HOT in her dress, Matt Hardy cut a better promo than Flair and Bully Ray. Rest of this show was just awful. Okay, the Captain America movie ad was good, too.

Taz - Who’s the fella with the salt and pepper build with the slightly stocky build?
Anderson - I’d like to introduce you to Prof. Shubert, from the University of Green Bay. I was there studying to become a professional asshole, and he was trying to become one of the finest mathemeticians in Wisconsin. While you were teaching integers, I was thinking of plowing ol’ Mary Beth that sat next to me. But that was then, we’re older, wiser. We got these two boneheads in charge of this - Hogan and Bischoff. They apparently…their mathematics aren’t up to par. So I brought you out to verify that my math was correct. I had a match with one REEFER VAN DAM! Both of our shoulders were down - we pinned each other at the same time. Two guys…on the mat…same time…right? TIE! Add that to the fact that I never got a frickin rematch! What’s this all equal? I WANT MY FRICKIN REMATCH! Do you agree?
Math Guy - Yes I do.
Anderson - Well then, you’re free to go. Nah, hang on a sec. Let’s get back to Mary Beth, her with the 38-38-24-38, her butt was big, but that’s more cushion for the pushin. You really didn’t like it when I was flirting with her. Was that because you were concerned about teaching me integers or getting inta her? Did you have a crush on her? I’ve known her for a long time…I knew it was true cuz SHE TOLD ME. She also told me…that you told her that I WAS GAY! Did you tell her that? So you’d get some action? I love gay people - one of my best friends is gay, but I’m not one. Did you tell her that? You did? Come on… I’m 35 right now. I’d like to live out a fantasy that every high school and college kid would - to give them something to remember them by. You know why I’d do that?

You been messing with my rules, and I tried to help you out. I OFFERED YOU THE LEAR JETS, BUT HE SAID HE HAD TO THINK ABOUT IT. I got something for you to think about - THERE WILL BE NO REMATCH UNLESS YOU EARN IT!

Hogan - No, you have a rematch contract signed by DIXIE CARTER, WHICH MEANS NOTHING. YOU CAN TAKE THAT PIECE OF PAPER, THE REMATCH CONTRACT, AND WIPE YOUR WHOLE STINKING ASSHOLE BODY WITH IT! TONIGHT, YOU FACE RVD! YOU BEAT HIM AND YOU GET YOUR SHOT!

Hogan - I LIKE IT, AND IF YOU DON’T LIKE IT, YOU’LL BE IN THE SANDBOX PLAYING WITH THAT PERVERTED PROFESSOR!
RVD - I’ve been wondering why I signed with TNA in the first place. I WAS BURNED OUT, EVERYONE CALLED ME - DIXIE, VINCE RUSSO, AND BISCHOFF ALL CALLED ME, BUT WHEN HOGAN CALLED ME, I TOOK IT SERIOUSLY. Why did you change your mind?

Anderson - OH YES YOU DID!
Anderson - WHO RANG THE BELL!? THE WIZARD OF OZ!?
 
Arn was always one of my favorites, even when he was a heel Horseman and I was young enough to hate the heels for being heels. When he would pivot and just snap that spinebuster I absolutely loved it. Also, when HHH did the spinebuster and JR would call it "Arn Anderson-like" it would always chap my hide. NOBODY ever does a spinebuster as good as Arn did (and JR knew better). He owns that move.
 
He used to post a lot of matches but that has happened for quite a while. I don't see the point of the recaps. People who want to watch the show will watch it and someone who just wants the bullet points will find spoilers and probably be satisfied with that.

Oh, wait, I know! Booty shots of Knockouts!
