The second time they did it with Undertaker wanting to challenge HHH even tho Taker won the year before was way better IMO. I just didn't buy HHH wanting to defend "HBK's honor" or whatever they tried to sell us for on the first match.

Triple H is a noble man and a damn good friend.

Shut the fuck up he just wanted to do something HBK couldn't and he failed THREE times at it

I mean his ego to end the streak was it not? TBH 26 is pretty the least offending of that 4-year period. Taker was the world champion at the time right?

Trips is a company man he knew that the streak should be kept alive. He’s what’s great about professional wrestling.

Yeah and Shawn cost him the belt so he could get the Mania match bc Shawn didn't win the Rumble which he was gonna do to challenge Taker, it was good shit IMO

 

[Chris]

But yeah I'll give you it was about the streak but it wasn't as bad as say on Raw that one year when Undertaker hadn't appeared since last 'Mania and they had a random fatal 4 way to see who'd challenge him and Punk won That feud probably woulda been EXCLUSIVELY streak shit if Bearer didn't die

This was my biggest grip was how many times he was gone all year and came back in February to see whom wanted to end the streak. Like, OK, but I don't care. 26 was better because yeah at least there was some build and story there. Still not my cup or tea, however.

I think that didn't really start til after the second Shawn match though, I know he dipped for a bit after the first one but still came back and won the title in 09 later on. 10 he only returned for the shitty Kane feud and from then on out his appearances were mostly just 'Mania related except for a few exceptions

I do love Triple H, but him going against Taker twice when HBK couldn't do it and then he could do it. Give me a break.

Kind of them to let Taker bury the Kliq like that though

 

[Hoss]

If I ever do a 2007 BTB (which I won't), Batista is ending the streak

That end of an Era match was hilarious to me. No way should they have failed to beat Taker in a cell with Shawn in the shirt and with Trips being the cell master.

I'd mark the fuck out.

Batista in 07 woulda been a great choice
