WrestleMania 32 - Undertaker vs Brock Lesnar - What kind of gimmick match will it be?

And no - I'll have to strongly disagree with you on the assertion that Taker will get booed in Texas. If the fans know coming into it that this could be Undertaker's last match (i.e. retirement stipulation a la HBK/Flair), then there's no way the Texas crowd will turn on him. As far as Brock goes, I actually like the fact that he won't be involved in a title match at Mania' as it keeps him away from Reigns and Rollins (i.e. two guys that he's fought over the past year). I like Brock being kept away from Reigns/Rollins right now, as it 1) Allows Brock to continue his winning ways while making his inevitable job in the future that much more meaningful. 2) Allows one of Reigns or Rollins to win at Mania', which then sets up a match with Lesnar again down the road when the feud would be fresh again. 2) Prevents Lesnar from having to job at this year's Mania. I am in favor of not having Brock job until atleast 2017. That way, you continue to keep Brock dominant, while you continue to build up both Reigns and Rollins. The 'appeal' of Brock right now is that he's almost unbeatable. If you job him to Reigns/Rollins too soon, then you still have all that time left on his contract where he doesn't appear to be 'invincible' anymore.

But if all Taker wanted was another Mania match, why cost him the title at Battleground? Taker costing Lesnar the title match was a heel move to begin with. Taker using low blows are heel tactics. Taker tapping behind the refs back is a heel move. Its a heel move to say I wont fight you right here right now. Holding off till Mania is a heel move.

Plus I dont see what is gained from Brock going 2-1 against Taker. If Brock went 2-0 against Taker, sure I see a point in that. But to go 1-1 in their last two fights does Brock no good. And there's no continued winning ways. He hasn't won a big match since Royal Rumble 2015. Assuming he doesn't have another big fight till Survivor Series or Rumble, thats close to a year.

Brock SHOULD be in the main event of Mania winning the WWE title. Winning a rubber match against Taker is useless. No win vs Taker will be bigger than what happened at Mania 30. So what is gained?
