The streak

[The Mac]

so i think kane should end the streak
what do u think

As I said several times before, I totally agree with you.

Not because Kane is the greatest wrestler anymore, but because in storyline I think Kane's character deserves it.
They've met two times in WM before, and as I also said before; every good thing is three!

Kane's character have always been in the shadows of Taker, and if you ask me, I really don't see Undertaker as a bigger superstar than Kane.
Undertaker barely wrestles, and he gets titlereigns and all that.
They need to build up one hell of a feud between The Brothers of Destruction that ends with a match at WM for the WHC Title!

I disagree with you completely, The Undertaker IS a bigger star in every aspect, he can get heat or pops when he wants, plus he's a big hit in sales. I doubt that the streak will ever be broken, it take Undertaker's mistique away

[Travicity]

Lol I thought about that but I would of prefered the other Kane with the mask. Kane/Taker Hell In A Cell World Title Streak vs Career or something said it for years but dont think Kane can be put ina big thing like that nowadays. Probably have to start with a reunion they win the titles. Then some crazy sh*t happens Kane turns on Taker. Cant see Taker turning heel on Kane probably a few matches between the 2 that will end at Mania.

[Smartmark]

I can see Kane take the mask back if they turn on eachother, because Kane will once again be haunted by his past.

[Travicity]

Unless he get's burnt again or something making him put the mask on but that would be a step backwards

[Smartmark]

^^ If the past comes back to haunt him, he may go back to be The Big Red Monster again. I'm actually very irritated that they uses that in 3 different storylines, but Kane never put his mask back on.

[Metalitia]

That would be horrible.

Taker is likely going to retire sooner rather than later and should bow out as the only superstar ever to never lose at Wrestlemania.

If they were going to end the streak then they should have done it back in 2005 when Randy Orton was still a relative up and comer and had the Legend Killer gimmick.

They didn't opt to do that so it would really suck to have him lose it now especially to someone like Kane whose best years are well behind him.

[Smartmark]

^^ What would be horrible? The return of the mask or defeating Taker?

Kane defeating Taker at 'Mania would be horrible now.


I understand the reasoning behind it and get what is being said but I disagree that it would revive Kanes career into a main eventer. Kane was great when he first came in and around 2001 when he dominated the Rumble and worked with Taker against the Power Trip stuff etc.

In retrospect losing the mask was probably the worst thing that could have happened to Kanes character wrestling wise. It's taken all his mystique away and coupled with his following 6 or so years of being relatively buried again and left simmering in the mid card whilst still being talked about as a destructive monster it's just ruined him as a convincing force in the main event fold.

The reason I mentioned Orton when they had their Wrestlemania match a few years ago is because at the time Orton was clearly on his way to being one of the companies top guys but was still in the process of getting over to that level.

If Taker were to ever lose the streak it should be in circumstances like that where it will be seen as a passing of the torch so to speak to someone who is convincing enough to already be a part time main eventer but who could carry the company in the future.

There isn't currently anyone on the roster that really fits that bill.

Undertaker has built up the streak and it is synonymous with his character now. I'm of the view that he should retire soon, with the streak intact. Not many guys give 20 years to a company almost constantly at the top of the field. Taker is deserving as going down in history as the only man to be undefeated at the sports premier event. NOT as someone who only lost once.

I think that Taker coming back to Smackdown this week within the next month they should start working out an angle for him to feud with someone deserving to retire him at Survivor Series. Completing the 20 years (PPV wise) with the company.

I wouldn't object to that person being Kane perhaps as that would be quite fitting and the sentiments in the first post are valid ones, I just don't think that the streak should be ended.

Taker gets in the Fatal Four Way match but Kane costs him the title. A segment on Smackdown a few weeks later airs where Taker has Kane in some back stage area and he chokeslams him into some fire pit or does something to disfigure Kane who is then off air for a while.

Taker gets a one on one shot against Swagger for the title at Summerslam. Both men are down, lights go out then the crash and fire erupt and Kane returns WITH THE MASK but instead of attacking Taker he lays out Swagger and leaves. Taker looks surprised but takes advantage and gets the win.

Taker calls out Kane on Smackdown but he doesn't show. Later on helping Taker again possibly at "Unforgiven". Maybe Paul bearer is there with Kane just for old times sake and as the monster really shouldn't speak much. He explains he has been instructing Kane to help The Undertaker and the reason is that Kane is fed up of playing second fiddle to The Undertaker and how he not only wants to win the Undertakers World Title but he also wants to end The Undertakers career. Which happens at Survivor Series in some kind of unique match between the two. This would also leave Kane in prime position to fill the void that The Undertakers retirement would create on Smackdown.

[The Mac]

ya kanes best years r behind him
but he deserves to beat taker and beating
him would revitalize his career

[Smartmark]

^^ Yeah. I never understood the whole getting behind Undertaker thing. In my eyes Taker's gotten stale in the last years. I always thought he should return with his biker gimmick at least once before he retires.

[The Mac]

ya i think that to
it will help his injuries to
as he fights a different style with less impact on his joints
which was one of the reasons he changed in the first time

[DA]

Why would you revitalize someone's career if their past years are behind?

And the Big Evil gimmick shouldn't come back, the phenom gimmick helps him because the point of the gimmick is that he stay hidden as a creature of the night, then he can have any week he wants off.

[The Mac]

to me it seems like he is in a creative rut
he can still compete he has just been buried in wwe right now

[DA]

Kane should stay where he is tbh, he should NOT jump to a feud with Taker to take away the undefeated, that would hurt him even more.

[The Mac]

hurt him how?

[DA]

Losing 3 times to Taker at WM would mean he is done, they would only use hin for dark matches, no one should lose three times to him at WM, I mean put him for another title, plus they should give another star the change against Taker at WM.

[Smartmark]

I don't get the fascination when it comes to Taker. He's not that good anyway. He's become stale and need to do something new.

[DA]

^^So has Kane, both have practically the same gimmick, Kane hasn't changed anything either, they both are entertaining powerhouses, in my eyes you just want the streak to go in my eyes.
