Yet another PG Era star who came across the Phenom's lair just at the right time. CM Punk had enjoyed a fairly decent run as the WWE Champion but was constantly overlooked by bigger stars like John Cena and Brock Lesnar.
At Wrestlemania 29 he would again miss out on a chance to main event on the grandest stage of them all despite only losing his WWE Championship a few months before. But, as was the case back in 2013, facing the Undertaker in a quest to end his streak was arguably more prominent than any title match the company could put together.
This feud was also helped, in a rather morbid way, by the death of Taker's manager and life-long friend Paul Bearer. Punk was able to play the villain perfectly by mocking the untimely passing and when it came time to lace up their boots, the two men did an excellent job.
