10 Biggest WWE Creative Mistakes Of 2015

10. The Undertaker€™s WrestleMania Match Lacked Aura

At WrestleMania XXX in 2014, The Undertaker's much-heralded 'Mania winning streak was ended at the hands of Brock Lesnar. Wrestling fans worldwide were shocked, because many felt the victorious run is something which should have remained intact. Undertaker himself disagreed, feeling the time was right to finally lose on WWE's largest annual stage. Fast forward to the 2015 version of the event, and 'Taker was programmed opposite Bray Wyatt. As good a talker and character overall as Wyatt is, the bout felt like an anti-climax of sorts. Little reasoning was given for the match, outside of Undertaker needing someone to work with at WrestleMania. So much more could have been done, including booking Wyatt to warn that he was going to pick the scraps of Undertaker's 'Mania carcass. That story was hinted at, but never fully developed. Perhaps the first post-loss WrestleMania outing for The Undertaker was always going to be a disappointment, but this was a lame duck. Out of all the major matches scheduled for 'Mania 31, Undertaker vs. Wyatt came across as the least interesting. The hook of someone trying in vain to defeat 'The Deadman' was gone, but WWE should have come up with something more inspiring.
