The Undertaker lost to Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania XXX Sunday, ending his unbeaten WrestleMania streak at 21 matches.

But Lesnar proved too much of a challenge, a moment that stunned wrestling fans and personalities. Thousands of fans took to social media, with The Undertaker's loss becoming a trending topic worldwide.
I am speechless…The Deadman never dies but the streak does. @WWE
