The Undefeated Streak

First topic message reminder :

Here comes a nice hypothetical question for a Friday……

So, in case anyone is unaware, The Undertaker is currently on a bit of a role when it comes to Wrestlemania. His unbeaten streak currently stands at 20-0. Hypothetically, let’s assume that Taker and the WWE have an unwritten agreement that he will wrestle 5 more Wrestlemania matches taking the streak to 25-0, at which point he will hang up his trench-coat and hat for good. With this in mind who would you want those final 5 matches to be against, and why?

Here’s my list…..

WM 29: Wade Barrett - okay so curveball first pick. The obvious choice for the next WM match is Brock Lesnar, however I think that Barrett would be an equally suitable challenger for the streak, providing he gets a decent push upon his return.

WM 30: Kurt Angle – this one relies on Angle returning to the WWE obviously, but IMO Angle would be a great opponent for Taker, and at the 30th anniversary of WM, I imagine WWE will want a couple of high profile matches on the card, and these 2 legends facing off would definitely add some prestige to the event.

WM 31: CM Punk – Taker and Punk had a couple of really great matches back in 2009, and I think Punk is the perfect candidate to bring out another great match from the Deadman, and hopefully if Punk remains in the spotlight he will be seen as a serious threat to the undefeated streak.

WM 32: The Miz – Another curveball, not necessarily the obvious choice, but IMO The Miz is back on the rise. I think WWE realised they pushed Miz into the main event spotlight a couple of years ago, but I think he will be back in the main event scene shortly, and hopefully become one of the biggest names in the WWE. A WM match with Taker would certainly do wonders for the career of the Awesome One.

WM 33: John Cena – Assuming WM33 is Taker’s final ever match, it needs to be a big one, and it doesn’t get much bigger than Cena. Perfect way for Taker to end his career with a win against the biggest start of the current era.

Gaff now that we've established your are best buds with the dead man I have one question:

Does he watch Match Of The Day with or without his socks on? I've always wondered..

The big man doesn't like football, he's a cricket man

Brilliant!

Go on, admit it, you're picturing him at the stumps ain't ya?

Can you imagine his walk out to the stumps? It would be EPIC!!

I bet he's got a helluva yorker on him

Epic 20 mins walk to the stump, thunder, lightning, smoke machine, dry ice, the lot! The world seems a little darker around Lords!

DUCK!!!

Come on! An american playing cricket!

I'm sure they do actually have a cricket team but their pitchers are a tad poor.

Wow - could you imagine if they ran T20 cricket competitions like pro wrestling?

Not only the aforementioned pyros, music, light show and videos, but each match would be preceded by build-ups in which each member of the team feuds with their opposite number in the opposing team.

Face paint and/or outrageous costumes would also be mandatory, as well as cryptic, scary or daft nicknames (pitch names?).

It infinitely makes Cricket less kill yourself boring, I say make the changes and reduce Suicide rates
