I agree that the streak needs to end, and that it will be an epic moment. But I don't think they will throw it away on an up and comer. Perhaps 'throw it away' is poor phrasing, but I feel WWE, and more importantly Vince, won't see it that way.

This is something that has been built up for almost 8 years. I feel that as soon as they consider a new-ish guy, they will be reminded of Brock Lesnar. To put a guy over Taker at Mania would be to push them to the moon. So what happens if that guy ups and leaves 6 months later. It becomes a waste of a moment.

I think its a safe bet to say the 'Ending of the Streak' will go to somebody established, and someone that they know will have an epic match with Taker. I think it would also be a safe bet that the end of the streak would also be Takers last match.

I think that this will likely go to somebody like Jericho or Kane( although apparently Kane has already been approached about this, and turned it down, stating what many of you have, that it should go to younger talent).

I like the John Cena idea, but only if one of them were a full heel. Preferably Cena.

Or Shad Gaspard

CM Punk should end the streak.......no i'm kidding, he should retire undefeated.

I'd be all for Jericho doing it. Reversing a tombstone into the walls of jericho

I don't see why The Undertaker has to retire after he does lose the streak. The man is still a hell of a performer. He's putting on the best matches of his life right now. Just because he loses at WrestleMania doesn't mean he can't come back the next year and make his record even more impressive.

While the initial win will be a star-making moment, the following year, another talent could get a VERY big rub from beating The Undertaker at WrestleMania, where he has been so successful.

'The Streak' will never be broken. It'll end like 20-0. Once Taker's retired it'll be one of the key talking points about his career. DVD's will have whole chapters devoted to it.

Undertaker will never be beaten at WrestleMania.

But he should be.

Just a question about Jericho vs. Taker -- would you like to see it for the World Heavyweight Title? I'm just trying to think of a match SmackDown! could offer forth that would be WM quality, and I can only really think of heel CM Punk defending the World Heavyweight Title against face Royal Rumble Winner, Jeff Hardy.

I'd have Undertaker defending the WHC against the 2010 Royal Rumble winner...Chris Jericho.

I'd love to see Chris Jericho win a Royal Rumble before his career is over. It's about the only thing he hasn't done. Not sure if Edge is going to turn face, though.

I think they are just going to let Edge be Edge, and kind of be a tweener and lean to one side or the other depending on who he is facing.
