I was watching it at a bar. I was half paying attention and playing around on my phone because the match was boring. But when it happened I immediately thought somebody had f***ed up. I had to ask people around me if Brock won because it just want connecting in my mind. I then laughed at the crowd reactions the camera picked up, and just couldn't believe what just happened. I enjoyed the rest of the show though.

It was denial, then shock, then awe. I was in the crowd. I remember thinking Taker had kicked out because the ref's count was strange and I looked straight at Heyman, who had put his hands on his head and had his mouth hanging open. I thought he was freaking out because Brock got so close but Taker must've rolled the shoulder up and I missed it. Then the 21-1 went up on the screens around the Superdome and I realized Heyman was selling the disbelief I felt. Then I became totally focused on how eerily quiet the 75,000 people in the building were. It is an unreal feeling to have such a huge crowd in collectively stunned silence. It was an unbelievable moment.

Wow, just wow. I can't remember ever being that shocked while watching wrestling before. And I saw Big Show's heel turn at Over the Limit!

Either they messed up big time, or Taker was hurt.
I was thankful it wasn't either.

My brother and I started cussing up a storm at the Undertaker and laughed at our other friends who were Taker fans. I was buzzin too and I do remember the first thing I said after the three count : "F*** you Undertaker you jobber @** mother******!!!! Take your old @$$ back to Death Valley where you belong!!!"
That's what you get when you bet double shots per match during a Wrestlemania PPV

I did the hands on the head thing too. Easily the most shocked I've been in wrestling in years. Easily years.

I wasn't immediately shocked. My reaction was "And here comes the restart..." it took a good 10-15 seconds, and until they started cutting to the reactions of the crowd, before I was like "Oh... Shit. He lost." Then I was pretty much in a state of disbelief until the triple threat got underway. I can't think of another time where a match just gut punched me with the outcome, leaving me completely stunned.

Thinking back, Silence.
Followed by a "wow, they actually did it"

Yeah, this is my experience.
I live in Malta, in Europe, and the show here starts at 1am. Suffice to say, staying up that late tires you out, and I incidentally dozed off during this particular match. I woke up during another match and on the live chat people were going crazy about the broken streak. Needless to say, the confusion I felt in that particular moment was incomparable.

Absolutely floored when the ref's hand hit the mat three times. I actually felt sick after it sunk in that Taker lost and I haven't felt that way about wrestling since Hogan turned heel at BATB 1996. The next thought that popped into my mind was that Bryan better win the title in the main event or the ring will resemble the contents of a garbage truck.

It was the biggest shock they've achieved in years, and likely will be for a long time.
I think that's the only reason they did it. Just to get people talking.

I saw it in person, and it was like the air just got sucked out of the Superdome. I had my hands up to my mouth and kept whispering "holy shit, holy shit!" over and over. Fans in my section pretty much had the same reaction. Truth be told, I was on the verge of falling asleep up to that point because I was fighting a cold for most of the weekend. Needless to say, this shocking development got me right back into the show!
Just for fun, I decided to check the WM thread when I got back. No joke, it was page after page of:
"WTF!" "Holy shit!" "The f***?" " .... " "WHAT THE F*** JUST HAPPENED?"

I thought, and part of me still wonders at times, if it was a f***up. Then silence.
What caught me out was Cole..."THE STREAK....is over." Almost as though he didn't know it was coming either and was just setting up one of his "THE STREAK IS IN JEOPARDY!" lines.

I had to work that night, so when I got out, I saw a text from WWE that said "The streak is over" and was like WTF. I hated being spoiled like that as I wanted to watch that night without knowing what happened. I unsubscribed from the text service so I didn't get anything like that in the future.

I was watching with friends and we were getting tired of the match. I even loudly yelled, "That was the worst Tombstone ever!" and "That F5 was a botch!"
Then we saw the three count and shouted for a good five minutes while our non-wrestling fan wondered why everyone seemed so mad.
