Ranking The Undertaker’s Post-Streak WWE Matches From Worst To Best

Only just pipping its successor to the post, 'Taker's battle with Lesnar at SummerSlam 2015 was an unexpected gem. Taking place over a year after the trainwreck that ended The Streak, fans weren't thrilled about the idea of seeing these two go at it again - with many fearing that 'Taker would suffer another injury. Nonetheless, the unusually billed 'rematch too big for WrestleMania' main-evented the 'Biggest Party of The Summer' and, despite everything working against them, Undertaker and Lesnar went out there and stole the show.

Unlike their WrestleMania build, this renewed rivalry was highly physical, with the pair getting their hands on each other weeks before the match - each one out for blood, with Lesnar wanting revenge for 'Taker costing him the WWE Championship while 'The Deadman' was looking to avenge the death of The Streak.

That physicality continued into the match itself as Lesnar started off by mauling his older opponent. Despite that, Undertaker held his own with the animalistic 'Beast', his punches landing harder than they had in years as the aging gunslinger was desperate to prove that he still had it, leading to that phenomenal shootout sequence in the match's closing moments (and their infamous "laugh-off").

It's a shame that this one was overshadowed by its controversial ending because, in terms of match quality, storytelling and all-round enjoyment, this was the best contest in their recent trilogy of matches and, without a doubt, The Undertaker's greatest match since the Streak came to an end.
