WrestleMania XXX will forever be etched in history as one of the most shocking nights in WWE folklore. The fabled winning streak of The Undertaker was ended at the hands of Brock Lesnar, with Paul Heyman standing right there at ringside. Fans in attendance could not believe what they'd witnessed.

Following that match was a Divas Battle Royal, then the Triple Threat Match between Daniel Bryan, Randy Orton and Batista for the WWE World Heavyweight Title. Bryan, a true underdog, would capture the gold that evening, but his boss wasn't around to see it happen. Vince McMahon was elsewhere, worried over the health of one of his most famous names.

In Heyman's words, McMahon left the Mercedes-Benz Superdome to ride with The Undertaker to hospital. Collapsing backstage after his match with Lesnar, 'Taker wasn't in great condition. Ironically, he collapsed right behind Paul Heyman, who watched Vince depart WrestleMania (of all shows) to ensure the safety of Undertaker.

Whilst he was gone, Daniel Bryan thrilled the fans by becoming the new WWE Champion.
