WrestleMania Braun is going to kill Taker

[The GOAT]

Now I don't know the guy, but just from what I've read/heard Undertaker wanted the streak broken. He's got an old-school mentality and wants to put someone over on the way out. That's great, but him putting over Lesnar hasn't really done much long-term now, has it? (granted the plan was for Lesnar to break the Streak, destroy Bryan, then fall to Reigns... lol) but if Taker would put over KO on the way out the door, that would do so much for him, right?

I'm not as bothered by Strowman as most, he can stick in his current role as long as he wants. That's great. He adds variety. But it's not like he's gonna main event

Yeah, Taker offered the Streak to a few people before Brock was chosen to end it (Kane, Orton, Angle, Batista I think as well...), so I don't think he has any particular problem putting someone over at WM. It's really Vince's call.

Problem is, it's safe to assume that Taker will probably never lose at WM again until the year he retires, and despite many people assuming that he will this year, there's been no strong rumors or conformation of that being the case. So I fully expect him to win regardless of whom he faces. (He would have put over Lesnar had they waited till WM to do Brock/Taker III, but that's just putting over the guy you already lost to, which is different. Then again, maybe the reason they blew the feud off at HIAC was because Taker was thinking about hanging it up at 32 and was gonna let his greatest nemesis Brock lesnar be the man to do it, but then he changed his mind. I seriously doubt they'll let an entirely different superstar go over him until he's absolutely sure he's reached the end of his career, though.)

As far as Strowman goes, I don't mind him per se, since he makes a unique addition to the Wyatt Family, but being the colossus of the group is really the only reason I care about him. Off on his own with the same strong booking, I probably wouldn't give a shit about him at all. Him vs Taker still sounds awful.

Think Styles vs Undertaker would be a really good match up. First off, you get a pretty good tag line; The Phenom vs The Phenomal One. And we all know how Vince loves taglines. Second of all, if Styles lost it wouldn't hurt him. Imagine Taker shaking his hand after their match, win or lose. That's a nice first WM moment for AJ.

He survived Lesnar, he'll be fine.

Lesnar can at least work though, Braun can't even make it through a 5 minute match. Much less a 10-15 match with someone like The Undertaker. Dude should've at least had a stint in NXT before being called up, he needs it more than a lot of people there.

Gotta be honest, I know absolutely nothing about Braun. I guess it is dangerous to have an elderly man go out there and rassle someone who doesn't know what they're doing, lol. RIP Taker.

Neither do I, all I know is that he was a weight lifter, and that he worked a couple of dark matches before being called up. The Rumble was the first time he really got to showcase himself, but all he did was a couple of clotheslines & had a staredown with Lesnar. He was in the corner with Jericho for the most part.
