the REAL reason the streak ended
12 years ago
General
the undertakers shocking lose at wrestlemania 30 to brock lesnar caused a rise of many emotions. shock, anger sadness, disbelief, and many other things. but what was the real reason the streak eneded?
in the words of one of my friends:
the match itself was defiantly worthy of wrestlemania, the match was back and forth, neither lesnar or taker could seem to get full momentuem. but afer brock delivered the second f-5, i'm gonna admit, i thoght it was over, but then taker kicked out. i thought undertaker was gonna come back at brock with full force, but i noticed that undertaker not only struggled to get back to his feet, but he seemed, rather out of it. as the match went on.....undertaker was able to mount less offense, but he also almost seemed dazed, out of it, wich was not normal. i noticed this immidatley, and i knew something was wrong.
evn after the streak had ended, taker stumbled, his eyes were shifty, unable to fully focus, he almost looked like he was haveing trouble finding his breath and the way he walked up the ramp.
to be perfectly honest....i wasn't as much concerned about the streak as i was for the undertaker
after my friend and i had this disscusion the night after wrestlemania, i became cousrious. i started looking up what i could find on the internet, and thats when i saw the most intresting article.
one word people: concussion!
thats right! as my friend pointed out, after the second f-5, undertaker seemed to go out of it. i watched the match myself, and i watched the second f-5 very closely, and when i watched it in slow motion, i noticed that undertker landed in the worst way possible, head first. this is what caused the undertaker to get a concussion, so after the tird f-5, even if undertaker had kicked out, he would have just caused even more injury to himself.
undertaker collapsed backstage, and was rushed to a hospital. he was released soon after, and returned home.
now wether or not the streak was supposed to end is still unknown to me... but here are some facts i do know:
1, chad patton, who was the refreree for the match was unaware of how the match would end, and even admitted that he was shocked at the outcome.
2. undertaker returned home as soon as he was reliesed from the hospitol, and has yet to return to the wwe, when most superstars would return as soon as they were better, rather to annoince their retirment or to announce their not though yet.
3. there has been a rumor that undertaker could have kicked out, but choose not to.
this honestly....wouldn't suprise me for many reasons.
this raises just one more question.
will we ever see the undertaker again?
there is no doubt in my mind. undertaker is a surified hall of famer.
and while the streak may be over....the memories the deadman has provided us with will never ever be forgetton
rember...streaks end....but legends and memories live as long as we make them.
