At this time, the Undertaker is scheduled to get surgery on his right shoulder and his left hip. Undertaker has told Vince McMahon that he will be at WrestleMania XXX, and that he has ideas for the event. A member of the writing team had the following to say about the situation…

"Taker would like to work with either John Cena or Brock Lesnar. Taker also has some ideas regarding The Shield. The whole scenario on Smackdown played out great, and Taker sees big money in those three."

Don't have a problem with either of these matches, but I do really want Cena/Taker the most.

I also do not have a problem with either of those matches. All seem like they'd be very good and entertaining money making matches that would have a sweet build. Personally I'd prefer to see Lesnar vs Taker the most because of the past between the guys and it'd be a hellacious match. Just seeing them both go at it would be awesome. The build would be very exciting and I'd enjoy it. I'd like to see it happen at WM30 but if plans are Rock vs Lesnar like the dirt sheets have been reporting then the match that makes most sense and would put Cena their poster boy in a high caliber match at the milestone 30 would be against Taker.

Nice to see Taker thinks highly of The Shield. If WWE keep booking them right, they will be stars. Crowd already have a huge interest in them and they draw well.

Cena or Lesnar? Sounds an awful lot like a send-off feud to me. Both of those matches have "finality" written all over them. And it's really no surprise either, because when your hip starts getting blown out... dude... you're getting old.

all 3 would be nice send offs indeed but I hope he just retires because I think this once a year stuff is hurting the legacy of the streak

I think Brock would be a better match up in all honesty, although a Cena match would feel more special. I want to see a Rock match aswell, shocking to think they never faced off at Mania.

Not really, considering jobbing at the biggest event of the year for someone like Stone Cold or The Rock would have been very similar to Goldberg jobbing to Kevin Nash at Starrcade. If one of those two loses to the other, it's fine. But losing to someone like Taker in the Attitude era? No way. Might as well throw the shovel on top of their body after the match.

Why?

So Wigger Jorts can claim yet ANOTHER accomplishment that he doesn't already need?

how do you know Cena would go over?

Good question, can't see it myself as big as Cena maybe he is not bigger than the streak or Undertaker's history.

What better way to go out then by going over the face of the company to keep the streak alive. Cena doesn't need this win nearly as much as someone like Ambrose or anybody from the Shield.

Don't see him retiring on 22-0 though. If he is going to 22, gotta be going to 25.

25 would be sweet, but I'd rather him retire at 22-0 instead of trying very hard to go 25-0 and looking like he might die.

Cena vs. Taker has been a match I have wanted to see for a long long time. Would be match of the night, and the greatest send off Taker could ask for. No one is bigger then Cena. And has we have seen in the past, Cena has no problem taking the lose to Anyone at Mania. He lost to Miz for Christs sakes. Cena will take the fall, Undertaker will go out on a high. Has money written all over it. The buildup has to be better then Cena/Rock. The stuff they could do for this feud is amazing to think about. The Invincible vs. The Immortal.
