Guys like Hogan, Rock, and Austin are household names. i.e. Plenty of non-wrestling fans know who they are, and only that kind of a wrestler should beat the Undertaker. WWE just needs to find a young wrestler who will one day be in the same league as Hulk Hogan.
You know how those guys got there? By beating other guys who were over and having iconic matches.

Cena is the "icon" of this era. There's no reason why he shouldn't get a win over Taker at WrestleMania at some point and accomplish the impossible. The streak will always be a big deal and a huge part of the history of WWE and Taker's "seemingly unmatchable feet" regardless of whether it ends or doesn't. There's no reason not to use it to give the guy who carried your company on his back for 10 years that monumental win that forces him into the upper echelon.

You’re right, other than the fact that they have no plans to turn Cena heel and how ridiculous it would be to turn a once-a-year wrestler heel just for 1 match. I’d also like to note that I’m not in the slightest interested in a “may the best man win” face vs. face streak match where both guys do something similar to Rock/Hogan post-match at WM x8 with all kinds of hand-shaking and posing and back and forth with the showing of “respect” and “sportsmanship”. A ’Taker WM match has never ended like that before and there’s no reason to ever do it period, just like there’s absolutely no reason to destroy the defining piece of Undertaker’s legacy -- EVER.

He put Triple H's arm over his shoulder and helped walk him down the aisle after the match last year! lol. The end of it was all about respect and sportsmanship.

Agree wholeheartedly. It would be nice to see Cena get his signature moment for all the hard work he's put in.

Because Cena defeating JBL at WM 21 to win his first WWE Championship doesn’t count, and neither does beating HBK at WM 23 to keep the WWE title.

You're right and I know it. Afterall, where would Hogan be if Andre never jobbed to him at Wrestlemania 3? After all these years, I still sometimes think like a mark - i.e. I just hate seeing Undertaker lose, especially to Cena or C.M. Punk because I don't care for Cena's gimmick and C.M. Punk just gets under my skin. (Which means he does his job well.)

The only two young guys I'd be comfortable seeing Undertaker job to would be (again) Lesnar because I've always been a mark for big guys, or Randy Orton just because I truly believe he can go very far in the business and he is the legend-killer and there is no bigger legend in the business today then the Underaker. If Orton could "kill" the Undertaker (i.e. retire him) Orton's status as a legend-killer and a heel would be huge.
