I just don't understand why all these people want Undertaker to lose at Wrestlemania. That's pretty much his legacy in professional wrestling. It seems like people just want Taker to lose by WWE burying him to Cena.

Huh?
Maybe I haven't been paying enough attention, but who exactly is saying Cena should end the streak?

No one. I'd rather Sheamus end it so he could have a truly unique achievement to put on his resume. Keeping the streak alive serves no one by now, since we all assume Taker will win automatically, which devalues the match.

Beat?No,if anyone does beat Taker it should be someone who is not already super over(TBH i dont care if Taker loses his streak or not but if he does it may as well do someone some good).Face him at WM?Yes,Its been a while since they have faced each other and unlike other times it would be a match we are not 100% sure how it would end.

A poster on here said this a while back: If Taker were to lose at Wrestlemania, he'd only be remembered for the one loss and not the streak.

If anyone should it end, which I don't think it will happen, it should be a guy they have their hopes set on him leading the company. The problem with that is that we can't see the future, and a lot of times WWE gambles and loses (see Lashley, Lesnar, and Kennedy). Imagine if Sheamus was the one to end Taker's streak...and then 2 years later he's caught with 4 hookers in his hotel room, a bag of coke, and is soundly future endeavored the following day. What reason was there for this guy to end the streak again?
And Cena already leads the company now, he's already a sure fire Hall of Famer because he's the Hulk Hogan merchandise gap of the giant hole that is WWE of a new generation, why does he need to beat Taker to prove he's dominant when anyone over the age of 10 already knows he is? He deserves it sure, but so does Orton, so does/did HBK, so did Trips, Angle, Jericho, Batista, Punk, and any other main eventer in the past 5 years. But does that mean that any of these guys should/should have ended it? Hell no.
So no one needs to end the streak unless they have a crystal ball where they can see which young wrestler won't be fired in 6 years.

Cena doesn't need the win at this point, and neither does Orton. The only possible picks I like are Sheamus and Punk. Just keeping the streak going doesn't make Taker any more over than he already is, and he won't be around for too much longer. Let Taker's streak "make someone famous".

It should be Cena, in my opinion.
All of the talk of "giving a young guy the rub" is moot, because Taker would get his win back almost immediately.
WWE has shown they are willing to do anything and everything at the expense of anyone and everyone to keep John Cena strong. This would solidify it forever.
And in all seriousness, aside from WWE brainwashing us all, why are people so hung up on Taker's streak?

I don't know. I actually believed that HBK would have done it last year. Hell, they didn't even let HHH do it. I guess if they want to give cena everything, then why not.

Cena doesn't need it. He's already had plenty of other accomplishments during his own career. All letting him beat the Undertaker would do is take away the chance for a guy who could use the rub to do it instead. These days, they need all the help they can get in that department.

Yeah, if they're going to end it (which my opinion changes on everyday) it should undoubtedly be for a HUGE rub. Cena obviously does not need it. Shoyuweenie makes a great point though. Say they want to give it to a guy like Morrison. His track record isn't exactly crystal clean. It's understandable for WWE to look at it like that.

Orton was the right guy at the right time to end it, I dont see anyone eles who would need a rub that would make sence.

Deserve? Well, if anyone does, he's certainly deserving of the honor.
Should he? Hell no! And that goes for anyone really... At this point, whomever, ends the streak, will get more backlash than anything. This ain't the kayfabe days where the wrestler who'd break the streak would be a "made man" in the eyes of the fans. Instead, they'd be "This is the guy who ended it?!?! F this Guy! F You too, Vince!" Legitimate HATE!
I personally don't want the streak to end 'cause it's one of the few "magical' things left in wrestling. Also, I have NO FAITH AT ALL in Vince or his s***ty writers in following up the career who the guy who ends it. (See Invasion, NWO, etc.) They'd just botch it like they do everything!

No one should beat Undertaker at WrestleMania.
I honestly think that if someone does beat Undertaker at WrestleMania, even if it's a top face like Cena or HBK, that they would instantly become a huge heel just from the crowd reaction.

Why is that a bad thing? Why should NO ONE beat Undertaker at Wrestlemania? What's got everyone so hung up on it? I'd most likely be a waste. I can't see anyone in today's world of wrestling for whom the win will be a good business move for both the wrestler and the company. It better be the next Hogan! Also, with their recent track record, chances are the win won't do much considering Vince and the writing team are responsible for the follow-up. Also, the fans, IMO, legitimately will not accept the guy who beat him and the poor dude's career doesn't take the turn he and Vince want. Imagine Sheamus beats Taker this year. I'd bet his career goes south rather than north. Unless, Vince keeps pushing him as if the win was actually successful in the reaction the company wanted. There's "This guy beat Taker at Mania! Holy Crap!" heel heat. And "This booking sucks. Screw everyone involved!" heel heat.

No one deserves to beat Taker at Mania. No one is over enough, not Triple H, not HBK, not Cena, no one. Whoever breaks the streak will become the most hated person in WWE and, I don't mean that in a positive heel heat way.
