Just a what-if scenario I thought of...
So, for those who are familiar with the Diesel vs Bob Backlund match for the heavyweight championship, and how he won in eight seconds...
What if this occurs with Taker vs Triple H? The two are looking each other in the eye, bell rings, Triple H kicks Taker in the abdomen, Pedigree. 1, 2, 3. The streak is over.
What sort of reaction would come after that?

Diesel vs. Backlund was on a house show at MSG.
Somehow I think the same style of match happening with one of the top WrestleMania matches wouldn't get any favorable reactions.
If the Streak ended like that, and to HHH, I might throw up legit.

Well, this board would crash, and the number of HHH hate threads would rival the Bryan Danielson threads after he got fired. I'd LOL, and probably have a smile on my face for at least a couple of weeks.

I'm thinking Madison would actually have to close the boards down for a while.

Undertaker would never allow that to happen, even if his body was seconds away from collapsing upon itself and he had to move around with crutches. And Triple H wouldn't be stupid enough to even attempt to ask.
That said, if it did happen it would probably hurt their future pay per view business pretty badly for awhile.

Heh, I'd feel really bad for Shawn Michaels. Failed to defeat the Undertaker at Wrestlemania, has to retire, and his best friend, who once attacked him with a sledgehammer, pulls a King Kong Bundy vs. S.D. Jones on an unbeatable zombie.

JBL/Mysterio for the IC title at Mania was kind of similar to Diesel/Backlund.

I think Taker would have to do something pretty degrading to the WWE for them to bury him (no pun intended) that much.
If HHH was indeed able to pull the strings to pull that off, it'd put me off WWE for good. The interest has been waning as of late and once Vince retires/passes and he's in charge, I can't see it getting any better.
HHH might be a huge fan of the business, but that doesn't mean he'd be a good booker. In fact, considering how much politicking he's done over his career, he'd probably be more of a screen hog than Vince has been over the years.
I can't say I'm worried, as this seems like a highly unlikely scenario. If it does happen this way - well hey, there are a ton of great independents to watch (no TNA for me with Russo there, thanks).

Or the bell rings, Hunter pokes Taker, Taker falls, HHH pins him and wins.

JBL/Mysterio for the IC title at Mania was kind of similar to Diesel/Backlund. Agreed. But it was JBL's retirement match and he wanted it that way. Backlund was used as a transitional champion so Diesel wouldn't get the belt off Bret. That's the only reason that match went that way it did. Give Diesel steam (heh) and keep Bret from losign to Diesel. If HHH beat Taker that fast...I'd mark. And then login as fast as possible to see the internet as we know it explode. I honestly think it would get coverage from all the major media outlets.

I'd mark. Then I'd realize the gravity of the situation. Then I'd mark harder.
Seriously though, that would be really stupid of WWE if they did that.

That would be an actual embarrassment for WWE to air.
I'm not even much of a Taker fan but doing something like that might even make me stop watching. Would basically be akin to HHH smacking everyone on the roster one after another with a big signboard that said "LOLBACKSTAGEPOLITICS" on it.

I would LOVE it if they got HBK to be the special ref, and then the HHH/UT match was an exact duplicate of HBK/HHH for the Euro title on Raw. HBK looks on in disbelief, is then attacked by both men and crucified on that UT symbol they put Austin on, and Vince comes out and crotch chops all over the place, yelling about his grapefruits and "you can't retire, you'rrrrrrre fired" etc
Well ok, I wouldn't love it, because HBK was great. But with all the little nods to the Attitude era lately, something like this wouldn't surprise me.
