During a recent appearance on the Tetragrammaton podcast, WWE talent Paul Heyman reflected on Brock Lesnar ending The Undertaker’s undefeated streak at WrestleMania 30.
Heyman explained that it was Vince McMahon who came up with the idea to have The Streak broken at WrestleMania 30.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On the end of Undertaker’s streak: “If this was anybody else’s promotion, I would suggest Undertaker himself, and anybody else observing would have a right to feel betrayed by the notion after a while that you would stop [The Streak], that you would end this, that you would take this away, but the fact is that it’s Vince McMahon.”
On how important the streak was: “That was more important than any title. … It had to be the right guy. The moment Vince came to [Lesnar and I] and said, ‘Here’s what I have in mind for Mania’ … The first thing in my mind was, ‘Oh my God, we’re getting the Streak.’”
