I would rather give the rub to end the streak that's over with the crowd, than someone who the crowd doesn't give two shits about.

I would personally love for the streak to end. Ever since his demand promo to have a match against Triple H last year, I get the sense that Taker wanted to find someone "worthy" to end the streak. And since Triple H had him nearly broken at the previous WM, he wanted someone to beat him, but they would have to earn it. I think he might have mention it in a promo against Triple H. A loss would not tarnish his career...and I don't think having CM Punk get the rub wouldn't be a waste. Just my opinion.
