The Undertaker’s unbeaten WrestleMania streak ended in 2008 in some parallel universe that exists somewhere out there.
Edge claimed in a recent interview that he rejected the suggestion when it was made to him prior to their WrestleMania 24 match. At least that is what Edge claims to have done.
The WWE Hall of Famer said in a recent interview for Logan Paul’s “Impaulsive” podcast that he had been approached beforehand with the idea of defeating The Undertaker and snapping his 15-match victory run.
“When it was brought to my attention, or at least thrown by me as an option, I just thought ‘no,’ because it was just as important as the world championships at WrestleMania,”

The Undertaker raised himself and others to a new level with The Streak, according to the “Rated-R Superstar,” and he didn’t want to be the one to end it.
“So why take away one of our marquee attractions?”

After falling in to The Undertaker’s Hell’s Gate submission hold, Edge went on to lose the 24-minute match and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Before falling to Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 30, Undertaker would continue to extend “The Streak” to a record of 21-0.
“Like, why would he do that? That makes zero sense to me. I’m already a made, man. I’m in the main event of WrestleMania, what’s it going to do for me? Sure, it would do something I guess. But let’s save that. Let’s save that for somebody who can really use that boost. And to me, as the years started going, going, going, I was like [Roman] Reigns is that guy and let’s save it for that. But it wasn’t my call, obviously.”
