The Undertaker’s undefeated streak at WrestleMania remains one of the most iconic and debated topics in WWE history. His loss to Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 30 shocked the wrestling world, leaving fans and peers alike questioning the decision.
In a recent revelation on his Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway patreon page, Undertaker shared insights into his peers’ reactions to the streak’s end. Many believed Vince McMahon’s decision to have Lesnar break the streak was “horrible,” with Undertaker himself expressing reservations about the choice. Despite Lesnar’s stature, some, including Undertaker, felt that Roman Reigns or Bray Wyatt would have been more fitting candidates.
Undertaker elaborated on why Bray Wyatt, in particular, would have been the most logical choice to end the streak. Drawing parallels between their characters’ darkness and mystique, Undertaker believed that a victory for Wyatt would have elevated his career significantly. Moreover, he speculated that their characters could have merged in a storyline akin to a “higher power” narrative, offering a unique and compelling direction for both personas.
