While speaking on his Six Feet Under podcast, The Undertaker reflected on his WrestleMania streak coming to an end against Brock Lesnar in 2014…

“It could have been a record that never would have lasted forever. It would have been just the lore, the legend and lore of that would have been really cool for wrestling. But it’s not, you know, wasn’t my decision. And people ask me all the time, ‘Well, why did you do it?’ I didn’t really have a choice. Yeah, I guess I did have a choice. I didn’t have to do it. And then—and then what happens? And then me and Brock are having to shoot at WrestleMania and then it wouldn’t have been good. I mean, might have took it easy on him.

You have to look at this business in a sense of-there’s a lot of people that probably didn’t—maybe they didn’t want to put me over to get me into that position, and they did it, and it’s just kind of the way it works. Wasn’t my decision, so I had to make the best of the hand that was dealt me.”
