It only took a year and 3 months to turn Undertaker to be a fan favorite. Good move. I cant imagine him being a heel again. It would be like the Rock, can turn him heel but everyone would love him anyways. No question, one of the best that WWE has.
Thats because Ted Dibiase is the man.. loved how he was able to portray his character to be so hated.. that anyone associated with him would get instant heel status.
I'd never realized that Hitman was the first guy Undertaker ever got in the ring with in WWF. Both future world champs and legends, kind of a cool little fact.
According to Mick Foley, the Undertaker was originally slated to be the Eggman and hatch from the infamous giant egg except somebody realized somebody that great can't be an eggman so they made him the Undertaker.
OK so someone please enlighten me here. I've been watching wrestling for a long time but is it true that The Undertaker debuted as "Kane The Undertaker" in the WWF before this event? I was just watching a video of him as "Kane The Undertaker" and it was televised so why was everyone so surprised when "The Undertaker" made his debut here?
According to the Ultimate Warrior in a shoot video, the Undertaker was kept off television for weeks while they worked out his character and him gimmick. Also, that taping of him as Kane the Undertaker aired on delay, it was held over until after the Survivor Series so this was the first time the masses truly saw the Undertaker.
2 of the biggest superstars were introduced by both Ted & Brother Love; Undertaker was introduced by Million Dollar Man and managed by Brother Love, then Stone Cold was introduced by Brother Love & managed by Million Dollar Man
I remember watching this live and thinking then that he was a legend in the making and i also preferred him this way not the shit american bad ass persona he had later on
How sad will it be when he retires? Ive grown up on wrestling. My grandfather brought me up on reels of wrestling when it was territorial b4 the mcmahon monopolization. For the past what 16-17 years ive watched this man. through all the whack b.s. gimmicks this is the one that will forverbe the most trancendant.
I remember this, 2 years after I was born. But I just noticed something in Mark's debut to the WWE; he had a damn mullet. lol. Since I was only 2 I never really paid attention to it until now.
7 years after 1990? what the fuck?why are you on the internet?go outside,go play.i say this because i wanna help you.trust me its not healthy.mad wierd,this is a problem.internet didnt get popular till round 97 98.the young is getting raised off it.i think this is explaining why kids of this generation are so cheezy.technology is doing everything 4 them.next they wont even have to wipe thier own ass's.i use it to reminisce.nothing new anymore because people arent creatin thier own history.
Gotta love Roddy on color! Fucking genius. Man, thi s takes me back. 'Taker looks like a redhaired Glenn Danzig almost. Ya know, just taller and with a shirt and tie lol.
It isn't smart or cool to call wrestlers by their real first names. You don't know "Mark Calaway" in person or go drinking with him etc, so to you and to all of us commenting here, it is The Undertaker.
i was only 4 at the time on taker being in the video so for me it's kinda strange looking at taker in this video and then looking at what he looks like now
I like this look better than his current one. The blanched face, dark circles under the eyes, red hair, and ripped sleeves look a lot scarier than the "white trash tank top" he wears now. I'm a huge fan of the 'Taker, but this look is far superior to his current one.
Its amazing that people still try to say that there were two different people who "played" the Undertaker. You must be the same people who buy into EVERY conspiracy theory that exists.
i no theirs a weird difference the kane now is good but the masked kane was amazing it couldnt be glenn jackobs cause masked kane was way more powerfull bigger and stronger and faster and it took so long just to get him on the ground
Don't take this the wrong way, but you are retarded. Glen Jacobs is, and always has been Kane. And as for it "taking so long to get him on the ground", its wrestling, they're booked to look strong you assclown. It's called no selling.
assclown lmfao get ur own saying and not jericho douche bag and their is a mystery about kane their is suspicions that the old kane aint kane now u retard and i choose to believe that u retard its just like some 1 piking to believe in jesus let them and dont say bad things about them so get a life
