When Brock Lesnar broke the Undertaker's undefeated WrestleMania streak in 2014, fans were rightly shocked. For over two decades the Deadman had crushed everyone in his path, so to see him lose, so handily at WrestleMania 30 sent some into a state of denial, as many fans believed, and still believe the loss wasn't planned.

However, it's clear that WWE had the plan all along for Lesnar to break the Streak, and several reports have emerged that the Deadman handpicked the Beast Incarnate to do the honors of breaking his record.

Though fans claimed the shocked referee and moments of silence showed it was an error, what is actually the truth is that WWE rightly took a moment for fans to take in what they had just witnessed before Roberts made the call, and the wrestling world changed forever, exactly on schedule.
