I would not have Punk do it this year unless Taker is absolutely sure that he won't be back for another Mania. While Taker vs. Cena next year seems like the really obvious choice, it's also possible that a lot could change. Punk and Taker could have Taker's favourite match ever and he could be adamant that he wants to drop the streak to Punk at WrestleMania XXX the following year, which could make a pretty good story. Punk could interact with Kane, Shawn Michaels and Triple H heading into the PPV, and perhaps even battle Triple H en route to his big match with Taker. At the February PPV (which I do wish they would change back to No Way Out) Punk can battle Cena for the right to face Undertaker at WrestleMania XXX, with both outcomes being matches that people would want to see.

At the moment, I definitely think that Cena would be the best choice to end the streak at WrestleMania XXX, but if they give Punk another WWE Title reign in 2013, he beats Stone Cold Steve Austin in a special match at a PPV and the story lends itself to Punk doing it at WMXXX, then I might reverse my opinion.
