You're probably puzzled by this one, and rightly so. Brock Lesnar and The Undertaker worked countless matches across multiple decades in WWE, so why is 'Taker even here? Well, two words sum it up best: "The Streak". Brock had a real problem with company plans at WrestleMania XXX.

Basically, he didn't think it was a good idea for him to beat The Undertaker and end a winning run that had stretched all the way back to 1991. Vince McMahon thought otherwise though, and he called the shots. Both sides went back-and-forth (with 'Taker acknowledging that he'd given his blessing on the booking) before Lesnar relented and the finish was set.

At first, Brock had refused.

Think about that for a second. He'd said no to a dream spot for hundreds of pro wrestlers - ending 'Taker's unbelievable winning streak at 'Mania would've been a career-making moment for many. Lesnar, at least originally, wasn't too keen on having it.
