    I grew up with Hogan, Warrior. I loved Bret Hart.
    I'm so glad I lived through Undertaker's entire run.
    Truly the greatest pro-wrestling character ever.

    I remember when Taker had a match with Rey Mysterio and they were both baby face. Taker won but after he raised Mysterios arm in the air saluting him. Just a moment during the good times on Smackdown!

    He’s the 🐐. The King and the Cornerstone of the WWE. There will never be another who will match his dedication, loyalty and passion. He’s the only one who can claim the fact that he was a STAR (active) during six different eras within WWE’s history. (Golden Era, New Gen Era, Attitude Era, Ruthless Aggression Era, PG Era, Reality Era)

    I must be old... I started following him before he entered the WWF at the time as a character called Texas Red... Right there and then I became a fan...and even predicted that he'd make it big in the F...now E... Glad I was right...

    I was 6 years old, sitting next to my dad in the middle of the night (CET) back in 1990. Ted Dibiase stands in the ring and announces a new man! (08:20 The moment!!!!!!!!)
    In this very moment, he scared the isht out of me, when he entered the arena! But as I grew older, I got less and less scared and more and more interested in this character.
    He has a special place in my wrestling fans heart and sure is the biggest head on my personal mt rushmore of wrestling! (Although Vince would hate me for this qoute. xD)
    To me he always was, always is and forever will be THE GOAT!!!
    THANK YOU MARK!!! THANK YOU FOR PUTTING YOUR BODY ON THE LINE TO ENTERTAIN A LITTLE BLACK HAIRED PUNK FROM GOOD OL GERMANY!!!

    I like to hear taker is willing to help bray Wyatt out with his character. That says alot he let his streak get broken and hes still giving back to the business thats a stand up thing to do. I hope bray Wyatt really picks takers brain if he does that i think he will be in for the long haul like undertaker was i mean its hard to just stay in that business especially with keeping the basically the same character i mean undertaker was always undertaker in wwe i mean he changes appearance but still the same character bray can learns things from undertaker i hope he takes that all that knowledge and uses it

    I had an idea back in the day when he became the American Badass that learn was the power of the Undertaker so when Mark Calaway wanted to be the American Badass I feel like it's like being possessed right so someone else could have been the Undertaker as long as they can roll their eyes back and walk that rope they got the job in my opinion doesn't matter how tall they are doesn't matter how big they are as long as they can do what the Undertaker does in a way. Then you could have had the American Badass versus The Undertaker I mean back in the day they had the Undertaker versus the Undertaker died was a very confusing fight when I was a kid. Then when Mark wants to pick it back up somehow he gets the urn and he becomes the Undertaker again so then when he retires you could either groom a wrestler or hand it to someone that he thinks that could fill his shoes and The Undertaker would never leave the WWE there would always be an Undertaker. The shity thing is the story does not work now but it's kind of one of those what if they did this it's really too bad

  • @Treevors30
    @Treevors30 ปีที่แล้ว

    8:17 I would like to ask him but one of my favorite fights The Undertaker versus The Undertaker I know a lot of people think o that sucked really did it because when I was a kid I could not tell them apart the only way I could tell them apart was one was wearing purple the other one was wearing Grey. I'm also curious if he is ever watched a q-and-a of Kevin Smith cuz I feel like it's kind of pulling a book from Kevin Smith cuz he has done this and turned it into like a stand-up / Q&A and they are very good

    Not including veteran status, I remember when he did a vignette that saw him cutting his hair with the story at the time so it would make sense. It went over well. But, the moment Matt Cardona dyed his hair during his push, he automatically gets buried. Tell me how this was fair? Similar could've been done with his gimmick, too.

      To be fair his character didn't really need it what made him stand out more then winning the title was the Streak that made him a legend going undefeated for 2 decades at wrestlemania, as their won't be another one like him he will always go down as the greatest of all time the legend and I'm so glad he finally retired cause he has nothing else to prove he gave everything to the WWE company.
