CM Punk vs Undertaker at Wrestlemania
 

How would the IWC feel about this match?

The clear future of the business against the hallmark of tradition.

I know this would never happen for business reasons, but would CM Punk, with his clear lead of the company, be able to beat The Undertaker at Wrestlemania?

I understand that having Punk beat Taker here would be weird, but it would solidify him as "the guy" in the company. The match would go on before Rock and Cena, but could it actually happen?

With all of the Jericho stuff going around it seems unlikely, but let's speculate...

Zack Ryder vs Taker at WM. Ryder with the win of course. You know it!

Would it be a great match? Yes. But the timing of it is very poor, and it definitely should not happen this year. For argument's sake though, if the match did indeed happen, Punk would lose.

Punk should defend his Championship against either Ziggler or Jericho at Mania this year.

As for Taker, I'm almost certain we're going to see him face Triple H again.

If we somehow ended up having Undertaker face Kevin Nash at WrestleMania again, I'd mark out.

What would you do, Kevin Nash, if when you wrestle Triple H, this happened to you again?

What would you do, Big Daddy Cool?!

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?!

<font color=goldenrod>It'll be Triple H vs. Undertaker...which, while always a good match, just feels kinda blah. The only real positive about it is that you know Triple H will be in a high profile match at WM despite his mostly non-wrestling role, so throwing him and Taker again would kill two birds with one stone and free up a match slot for somebody else.</font>

Oh yeah?

What if THIS happens at the Royal Rumble again?

WWE already has the blueprint as to how to carry out this feud. I really think there's a chance we might see it.

I mean...Triple H has to wrestle CM Punk SOMETIME, no? All the comments Punk made about Steph and Triple H's manhood can't just be forgotten.

What better time to do it than at 'Mania?

It's not gonna happen, guy

We'll see.

If it DOES...ya'll are going to have to read me telling ya'll "I told you so!"

You can't have Undertaker against HHH or Nash again. Mark will not allow it. The dude has a solid record of stellar matches at WM, and those two can't provide.

He will not face Nash with his streak.

He won't face a guy he can just blow over, ever again.

..."Mark" he calls him :shifty:

I love Nash, but there's no way he can put on a high caliber match with Taker like HBK and HHH did.

You mean like "Michael" and "Paul".

Shut up

Can Phil Brooks put on a match with Mark Calloway?

20-0 at Wrestlemania

Have him go against the guy who broke the 4th wall. Have a huge sendoff for Undertaker afterwards. It would make Punk. It would give Taker a send off if Punk did a "pipe-bomb" type thing.

HBK lost to Taker and he looked like a jobber...

Who looked like a jobber? Undertaker?

Cena vs Rock

CM Punk vs Taker

who isn't buying?

no one looked like a jobber

Well, according to you, someone did.

ellipses... ... ...

HBK won that match at WM for all Im concerned with

No.

I had the thought that Taker comes back and gets pissed at Cena and the Rock for taking his spotlight at WM and wants to make it a Triple Threat.

Hi there.

Rather see Punk vs Jericho if the whole teaser stuff about 2012 is actually meant to be about Jericho but Punk vs Undertaker would be great.

Considering the real lack of big names worthy to take on Taker in the biggest hyped match of the year, Punk might be the only big name left considering Cena is already booked and Orton probably gets involved in a title match. Triple H could face Taker but then that would be the third match they've had while others such as Ziggler or Barrett would be a bit risky to use as of now. Daniel Bryan most likely is involved in a title match so that takes him out of any potential young wrestler as a challange and doubt the WWE would use Christian or the Big Show.

Cody Rhodes is the only potential big name I can think of to replace Punk for the match.

I think the one thing we can all agree on, is that whoever Undertaker faces, it'll be a seasoned veteran, not a "new guy" like Ziggler or Barrett or Miz.

I actually think Ziggler will win the MITB at WM28.

Ziggles will have a tough time winning MITB at WM since they dont have MITB at WM anymore..

He said solid, not perfect. Asshole.

Anyways, if Taker is going to retire at 20 wins undefeated, Punk would be a good way to go. A great match at Wrestlemania against the Undertaker would be better for Punk than a title match. They just need to push Punk as close to the brink of victory as possible. I really thought that in both Taker/Michaels matches, they should have had Shawn a half a second away from a count-out victory before purposefully breaking the count because he wanted to win the "right" way. It would have been especially powerful in the second match, since refusing to take a count-out win would have cost him his career. In Punk's case, it would give him a kind of "uncrowned champion" status; with the Undertaker retired, he could tout the fact that he came closer to winning than anyone else who ever faced the Undertaker at Wrestlemania, and that he could have won if he had wanted to, but that the "Best In the World" doesn't win that way. If the teaser vids are for Jericho, have him come back and win the Rumble, then win the title from Orton at Wrestlemania. Not only would this break the Royal Rumble winner/loser streak, but it would then set up for a triumphant Jericho/Punk feud to run through the summer and cultivate in an amazing SummerSlam match.

If he wasn't dead, I could totally see El Gigante (refuse to call him WWF name) come back and challenge Taker at WM since he's pissed that hes the only guy that Taker couldnt actually "beat" at WM. Of course he'd have been more crippled up then Andre was vs Hogan so it'd probably be the ugliest match ever..

I would be legit scared if I ever had to wrestle someone the size of Giant Gonzalez.

I would be legit scared if I had to wrestle someone in that furry, pseudo-naked suit.

If Punk wins, he breaks the streak. If Taker wins, Punk has to do the biggest line of coke known to man.

Everytime I watch that match, I'm distracted by the backside of that suit lol

Huh. Didn't realize he was dead.

Anyways I'll never get over his appearance at the Royal Rumble.
Monsoon: Who is this guy???
Heenan: As far as I'm concerned, he can be whoever he wants!

The bar is pretty high on that:

*Sobs* That's just mean. Now my feelings is all hurted :(

Anyway, Punk vs. Taker makes sense, since you could have Punk spout a load of shit about how "You held me back, Mark!", but I'd rather not see it. Never been a 'Taker fan. Dude bores the shit out of me.
