Carlito has no problem with the idea of The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak ending. He just thinks WWE gave the moment to the wrong person.
Uh it should have ended with Roman, not with uh not with Brock. Cuz it… What did it really do for Brock? Did Brock Brock didn’t need it.”
“I don’t think I don’t I still don’t know what they got out of it. Cuz he was still it didn’t make him more Brock Lesnar.
Carlito argued that the streak could only be ended once, so the victory should have been used to elevate a younger star with years ahead of him. His pick was Roman Reigns.
Um so literally like I said winning and losing didn’t really do much for Brock and then for Taker it it kind of was a wasted uh you know you know you can only do that once.
He admitted Reigns didn’t strictly need the win either, but said it would have done far more for his career than it did for Lesnar’s.
Reigns did eventually beat The Undertaker at WrestleMania 33 in 2017, but by then the streak was broken.
He isn’t alone in this opinion. Adam Copeland(Edge in WWE) also said Reigns should have ended the streak, and The Undertaker himself has questioned whether Lesnar needed the win, suggesting Reigns or Bray Wyatt could have benefited more.
