Undertaker winning, and people trying to justify it by saying "being in the ring with Undertaker is an honor" or some junk.

Bray Wyatt wins. He then gives Taker his Hawaiian shirt. Taker puts it on and smiles. At next year's Mania, Sting vs. Faker in a game of shuffleboard.

Not really sure.
I get that you're holding 'Taker off of TV in hopes of drumming up WM interest, but you're also showing that Bray Wyatt isn't enough of a challenge for the Undertaker to respond to in person.
This has been a really bad WM build-up to this match and the whole card in general.

I don't understand how they just end the Streak and throw him into a random feud outta nowhere wrestlemania Fixed for my overall bafflingnessment at this years show. I feel bad for Bray, I can't help it. Even the Taker mind games are stupid as f***.

Does nobody see that the audience should at least understand what the Undertaker's motivations are for taking this match? We haven't seen him in a year since his WM was snapped and now he's just going to return like that because...?

Regardless of the outcome, nothing of significance will change. Wyatt and Taker will have a crappy to mediocre match. Then Taker leaves until next years Mania, while Bray Wyatt picks some midcarder's name randomly out of a hat so he can have another one of his nonsensical feuds.

Bray will be WWE Champion within the next year regardless if he loses or if the match sucks. The WWE sees a Taker match as an elevation for a guy these days, it's a big deal. They have so much stock in Bray, he will grow from this. This match is essentially Bray taking the "evil dark monster" torch from Taker. Win or lose he'll have earned Taker's respect to call him of all people out, let alone at WM.
Bray will be WWE Champion sooner than people think.

It feels weird going from two matches each against Shawn Michaels and Triple H, followed by CM Punk and Brock Lesnar, and now Bray Wyatt.
Anyway, I think Bray has to win, and he will. Maybe I'm looking too far beyond kayfabe here, but how can the up-and-comer in any way look strong losing to old and slow Taker? More likely Bray is given the rub by getting a Wrestlemania win over Undertaker, which should still be a big deal sans streak. I suspect last year's loss was to set the stage for up-and-comers to get this kind of rub without facing a backlash for ending the streak. Long term payoff would be the establishment of Bray Wyatt as a upper mid-carder/main eventer.

While I don't know the specifics of the feud, it seems like they're basically just acting like the streak's still a thing the way they're doing it. Like, they can't be bothered to write anything for Taker at this point that isn't just, "I want to prove myself by beating you at Mania, Deadman!"
Either way, Bray gets squashed, Taker has a staredown with Sting on Raw then disappears for the next twelve months, comes back to beat him and retires immediately afterward.

There's no chance Taker loses two in a row; especially to Bray.

And there it is, THE reason why I did not want Bray VS Taker to happen. Taking winning won't matter because the streak is broken and if Bray wins it won't mean much because there's nothing to gain with the streak being broken. Also if Bray wins, it's going to make Taker look bad now with a mania losing streak and giving the image he needs to hang up the boots. There's just nothing to gain from this match.

I don't understand the hypocrisy of appreciating storytelling in the ring, but then pre-judging and writing off a match because of some bizarre, preconceived notion of what people think the aftermath will be. How stupid is that?
Taker is a veteran storyteller and Bray Wyatt's ring psychology is clearly underrated here. They will tell a story in the match and have really cool moments we'll see in highlights for decades. Everyone just let the streak go, incase you haven't noticed, these two are VERY similar characters so the match is going to be a passing of the torch, of sorts. It's a showdown of two generations of demons. Period. Neither has to win here and neither will look bad losing. It's a spectacle no matter what and these two will sell the story better than most on the card.
Goddamn. This is a dream match as far as I'm concerned and people shit all over it. Nobody will ever be pleased.
