I've never understood this viewpoint that the streak HAS to be used to put over a young guy. There are literally hundreds of ways to get a guy over. Using the streak for that seems like a cheap and lazy shortcut, and would feel like an anticlimactic end to something that has become really special. People say WWE doesn't gain anything by taker retiring undefeated or losing to an established star. Actually they gain an incredibly epic, match of the year candidate, that has a special kind of feel you can only get when two megastars collide. The kind of feel you won't get, no matter how well it's promoted, with an up and comer. It's like people can't just be satisfied with a great build, followed by an incredible match. There has to be some benefit for one of the midcarders that they go gay for, before taker can retire. Not everything has to be about pushing talents, even ones that deserve to be pushed. When it comes to Taker's streak, I'd rather see the clash of titans that we've had for the past few years, rather than the david and goliath match some people seem to want. If this crazy momentum and popularity CM Punk has gained lasts until Wrestlemania, I'd say go with him. Otherwise I'd have to go with Jericho. |
