was Brock breaking the Undertakers stroke the right call?

Thought it was a botch until they put the graphic up.
>>
yes
>>
>>16768289
They botched and put up a 22-0 graphic before the match started.

>>16768248
mmmmm strokes are no joke

No. Legend Killer Randy Orton should have been the one to do it. It was the perfect time to do it, even if it was just for the number 13.
>>
>>16768248
wrestling is fake and staged so I can't think of anything more gay than bragging about a "streak"

wow my boss decided i would win 21 fake fights in a row wow that is so historic

We're discussing it in its context as a storytelling device, anon.

The mark in me was SEETHING at the time. But it was the right decision.

As evident by the match itself and the dozen or so matches he worked after Undertaker clearly was broke down. And Brock was a made man because of it. Then WWE had a monster heel and a guy to help Roman get over.
>>
>>16768264
Sometimes I think 4chan just bots new threads in
>>
>>16768356
and its a horrible storytelling device because if anyone thinks about it for more than two seconds they go "wait, this just means he was booked to win a bunch of matches in a row, why do we care about this number? it's fuckin fake and predetermined"

BROCK SLAPS THE UNDERTAKERS HAND OFF HIS COCK
THE STROKE IS BROKEN
THE STROKE IS BROKEN
THE STROKE IS BROKEN
MAMA MIA HE'S GETTING SOFT AGAIN

Pro wrestling might not be for you, anon.

>>16768394
>who broke the streak
this is not an achievement that matters because it's just who was pre determined to do it. for a fake sport it's a retarded storytelling device, it's almost worse than just telling people "the following match is fake"
>>
>>16768405
so nothing matters in wrestling? championships and victories mean nothing? because it's a scripted show? what the fuck is this logic?
>>
>>16768405
See: >>16768394
>>
>>16768419
no, because there's a lot more than can be built into a feud over a championship belt, or anything else for that matter. the WWE soap opera lovers know this better than most - focusing on a number of matches when the matches are all fake is fucking stupid. it's the same reason AEW, when they randomly decide to do the "sports based" presentation and focus on win / loss record is fucking stupid too.

>>16768435
Very interesting indeed.

>Then WWE had a monster heel and a guy to help Roman get over.

It didn't work one bit though.
>>
>>16768248
You mean that moment that they tied the Undertaker's entire legacy to that they can't even show or reference in their own product anymore? Yeah no great decision Vince. He's known for making those after all
>>
>>16768248
Hindsight is 20/20 and all, but at the time it was the right choice
unless a ghost from the future appeared to Vince and made him wait for Roman to break the streak and turn heel, there wouldn't be anyone who could realistically do it
