WWE: 10 Matches Brock Lesnar Needs To Have Before He Quits

Brock Lesnar After Brock Lesnar destroyed the Big Show at the recent Royal Rumble PPV, rumours suggest that the former UFC Heavyweight Champion has his eyes on ending the Undertaker's streak at Wrestlemania. With Brock's limited schedule, The Beast's matches are usually few and far between. After having recent battles with John Cena, HHH and CM Punk, only a select few names get to test their mettle against Lesnar. Given how he abruptly walked out on the WWE in 2004, not to mention those recent rumours of a UFC return, it remains to be seen just how many WWE matches Brock has left in the tank. Of course, given the big dollars and comfortable workload that his current deal involves, he'd be a fool to not keep his relationship with the E ticking along as long as he can. Whether Brock's competitive edge gets the better of him and he returns to the UFC or if he decides that he's had enough of floating around the WWE every few months, here's a list of ten wrestlers that Brock needs to fight before he eventually calls it a day.

10. Undertaker

'Taker and Brock had some hellacious, brutal battles during Lesnar's first run with the company, and it appears that the two names are on a collision course for Wrestlemania if rumour is to be believed. Of course, that could all change if a certain face-painted icon finally decides to join the McMahon-run promotion. Would another Undertaker and Brock match really draw fans in? Either way, at least it's not Cena vs. Orton for the 1,004th time on PPV. Whenever Lesnar is on the card, fans tune in. Similarly, the Undertaker's rare appearances also bring the fans in. Put the two together, with 'the streak' on the line, and it could be something stunning. The obvious concern is Undertaker's health and Brock's extremely physical style. At this stage in his career, would another battle with Lesnar be too much for the Dead Man to handle? And you also have to ask whether fans would really believe that Lesnar is going to be the man who finally topples the Undertaker on the grandest stage of them all. After Brock's dominating display against the Big Show, it looks as if this match is a given for Wrestlemania, meaning at least one more Brock and Undertaker tear-up. The only way I can see this match not taking place is either if 'Taker isn't physically able to do it or if a certain Steve Borden finally makes his WWE bow.
