That's why you don't end it until he's absolutely done.

As soon as he's ready for that last match though and there is no more Taker streak matches to be had, you end it with a loss and you get arguably the most memorable moment in wrestling history out of it in an era where memorable moments just don't happen anymore.

Taker's still got the streak as a big part of his legacy (23-0 doesn't cease to have ever existed just because he lost a match in the end. The streak still happened and the DVDs, etc. still get released) and his opponent, the business, the fans and he himself get a once in a lifetime moment out of it that we'll likely never see the opportunity to have again.
