Would it be a dick move for Undertaker to keep his streak in tact when he retires?

Look at what happened to Shawn Michaels in the months after retiring Ric Flair. One of the most popular wrestlers of all time was getting boo'ed for what he was made to do. It made for some good television though and a pretty good feud with Batista that turned into one of the greatest feuds in recent WWE history with Chris Jericho.

Though Shawn ended up on the short end of the feud with Jericho and was lost in a crap gimmick with JBL until getting free and fighting the Undertaker. If it was anybody else (other than MAYBE Triple H) I don't think they would have survived ending Flair's career.

But that was Shawn Michaels and he is Mr. Wrestlemania. The fans were able to forgive Shawn in time and that Flair gimmick was created only a couple of months before. This Undertaker streak has been going strong since 1991 and I don't know anybody who would be strong enough to survive becoming the most hated piece of shit in WWE history for beating The Undertaker at Wrestlemania. I don't even think Shawn Michaels could have handled that pressure again and multiplied by a million times. If you think X-Pac heat is strong baby you ain't seen nothing yet! Ending Taker streak heat would burn anybody alive. They'd become a social-piranha in the lockeroom and with the fans and sooner or later it would be future endeavored.

People talk about how beating The Undertaker at Wrestlemania would make their career and they don't understand at all. You don't spit in the wind, you don't tug on Superman's cape and you don't fight the Undertaker at Wrestmania. Win or lose: you will rest in peace!

So I don't understand, are you trying to prove HBK beating Flair worked or didn't work for future storylines? Cause you're negating your own argument
