Not the WM 26 match, though? I thought that one was actually better.
As far as the importance of being Shawn's last match, it was HUGE. But from a wrestling standpoint, no. But this is mostly based on personal impact on ME, and on the night of WrestleMania 26, I ended up getting engaged. So everything else that night kinda dimmed in comparison at the time, ya know? I guess it kinda lacked the "who's gonna win" factor. In the back of my mind, the entire match, I knew who was walking out of there the winner that night.
At WM25, I legit harbored the idea that Shawn might do it. By "it", I mean end the streak. I was pulling for The Undertaker, of course, but there were several times during that match that my heart skipped a beat. When Shawn kicked out of the Tombstone, I SCREAMED a string of swears at the screen. I got so emotionally invested in that match. That is what makes a perfect match, to me.
