12 Ways WWE Would Have Different If Brock Lesnar Hadn't Quit
4. The Streak Would Have Ended A Lot Earlier
If Lesnar had stayed with WWE, chances are the streak would have ended a lot earlier. It could have been as early as WrestleMania 23 in 2007, which would have served as the right time for Lesnar to work Taker on the grandest stage of them all. We know that Taker wanted to lose the streak to someone legitimate, and wanted to give the streak to Lesnar in both 2011 and 2014. The idea was that Taker wouldn't look weak in losing to a genuine tough guy. Chances are he'd have felt that way in 2007, too. It would have been likely he'd be matched with Lesnar before 2014, and also likely that he'd have done the job. It would have robbed us of moments like the classics Shawn Michaels had against the streak in 2009 and 2010.
