Thought it was a decent show, I love the "New Era" idea, but I have my doubts that Bryan sticks around the ME long-term. Like was mentioned earlier, he can easily be the Benoit-type (minus the obvious...thing...) wrestler of this generation.

That could be an amazing mania program...

I might actually pay for the PPV just for that match. 2 of my favorites.

Taker vs Kane III. It's going to be Undertaker's last match. Might was well be Kane's last match too, though that's not necessary. The match and its build-up can be dark, epic, and still be rated TV-14.

I'll be honest, I'd just get a young heel who needs some heat (Del Rio, Barrett, etc.) and have them break the streak. Instant credibility & overness. Remember how Jericho was able to bring up the Undisputed Title about 6 or 7 years after the fact?
Won't ever happen, though. At this point, I'm tired of the Undertaker & the "come back for Wrestlemania, leave for the next year" thing... But I guess he won't be around much longer so I can stand it.

Unfortunately I see him in some "also ran" match like the MitB.

Yeah, I think this is how a lot of people see him long-term. One thing that I think will help him is the fact that Punk is a good friend. I really think creative/Vince/whoever is getting behind Punk as the #1 face & are starting to take some of his advice.
I'm not saying his friendship with Punk will keep him in the main event long-term, but I don't think this is going to be his only WHC title reign...
