  The streak felt bigger than mania at times.

  Story of DX never being able to conquer the Deadmans streak is one of the most fascinating stories of wrestling which gets overlooked , but I also think that we missed on so many other bangers on the streak like with Kurt angle , Prime Cena etc. <br>The Streak shouldn&apos;t have broken honestly 💔

  Its understated how badly Shawn wanted that mania 26 match, he and Chris Jericho had come off a blood fued years in the making not too long before that moment. &nbsp;So for him to gift Jericho the title, just to get to Taker, really shows how obsessed he was

  A really small detail that people usually miss is the severity of his obsession at Elimination Chamber. The hidden detail that in all of his blind rage and obsession with Undertaker, he gives Chris Jericho, the man he JUST had a blood feud with a year prior, the Heavyweight Championship. It&apos;s the little stuff like that that makes me love this entire story arc

  Seriously the buildup to Shawn&apos;s match vs taker at wm26 leading up to his retirement was one of the most beautiful storyline

  Crazy to think he beat both members of DX multiple times at the grandest stage of them all..

  I think you ought to have mentioned that not only did Shawn cost Taker the WHC but he inadvertently gave Jericho the belt. Shawn and Jericho had an incredibly personal feud. Jericho was like his worst enemy. So it showed the extent of his obsession was so much that he&apos;d let Jericho have the belt if it meant he could fight Taker.

  I never realized that Undertaker never bet Shawn until Wrestlemania 25.

  From WMs 23-29 Undertaker’s catalog was the stuff of legend and DX vs Undertaker from WM 25-28 was pure cinema.

  At the time, when they kept kicking out, it felt like they were trading in their career longevity just to keep going. That was basically the story with Triple H. Its why it felt so impactful. Everything was on the line, including their futures.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysllfg2zphM&amp;t=1169">19:29</a> it seems that Triple H has a weakness against submissions. He lost quite a few matches in that way.
