Undertaker: Reigns, not Lesnar, should've broken my WrestleMania streak
The Undertaker doesn't think Brock Lesnar was the right opponent to end his undefeated WrestleMania streak.
In an interview with the Dallas Morning News' Joey Hayden, Undertaker explained why he would've chosen Roman Reigns over Lesnar to break "The Streak" at WrestleMania 30 in 2014.
"I mean, on a selfish note, it would have been nice to retire undefeated, but that's not business," Undertaker said. "My career, like I said, and I'll say it over and over again, I've been incredibly blessed with what I've been able to do in this industry. And there comes a time where you've got to pay it forward.
"Although, I don't know if Brock was the right guy. I like Brock, me and Brock are friends. I don't know that Brock needed that win. Brock was a bona fide superstar at that point. So, I don't know that he needed it. Roman (defeating Undertaker at WrestleMania 33) definitely, that was the right call. I just wish he may have been first. I wish I could have reversed them, you know what I'm saying? If Roman would have been able to do it, I think it would have increased the value."
"The Deadman" won 21 straight matches at WrestleMania between 1991 and 2013 before losing to Lesnar. His WrestleMania record currently stands at 25-2, with his only other loss coming against Reigns.
