    I heard Roddy Piper say, talking about when people tell him he’s the “best wrestler to never hold the belt,” he always thinks about how you give the belt to someone to get them over. Taker is the best example of that. A guy who could have believably in kayfabe beaten any wrestler at any time in his career but hardly held the title because he didn’t need it.

    • @nooneinparticular5273
      @nooneinparticular5273 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      Well part of it was that he didn't need it, but the other part is the problem of how do you get the belt back off him? It's the same reason why Andre never had a major world title reign. It wasn't cause he didn't "deserve" it or that he wouldn't be over as champion. You can't put that belt on him because you can't beat Andre so you can't get the belt back. It's why he mainly held tag belts. Beat the other guy, Andre wasn't beaten, he just lost. Similar to Undertaker.

      Not saying that is right - I absolutely believe that Bret would have dropped to several different people on the roster - just specifically not Michaels.
      But if the trust is gone, it’s gone. And if you *cannot* take the risk ... then I think it’s understandable that Vince did what he did what he did. Not right. Not even nearly. Just understandable.

    One of greatest one..Never in a real controversy...The absolute crowd favorite and a locker room leader. I heard Shawn Michael say that during the time of screw-job, he had an altercation with Vince for the money. Vince gave a large sum of money to Bret hart to retain him which was much larger than what Shawn used to get. Shawn on the other hand believed that as the WWE top dog and champion, no one should get more money than him Except The Undertaker. He believed that Deadman was in his own class and he is OK if Deadman gets more money. That was Mark Calloway's aura and impression. A loving guy off the ring and much respected ini his peers. He is also called as one of the safest guy to wrestle with and even did not hesitate to loose his belt to even new upcoming guys like JBL and Kurt Angle to push them up.

      kayfabe died out a long time ago, people realize now its just an action performance. These guys are stuntmen/women/actors, people can know that and still enjoy it just like anything else. I watched the Flash, but i'm not upset that Grant Gustin isn't ACTUALLY the flash.

    It's surreal to see and hear the Undertaker without his spooky voice. The only time I cried watching the WWE was during WM30. He'll always be the Greatest gimmick in wrestling history.

    When Taker stops burying people, he starts burying hatchets.

    I'm enjoying , "The Last Ride" series. But Deadman, you gotta have your turn with a tell-all book. From your early days in the texas circuit, the inspirations/ideas behind your gimmicks, your time with paul bearer, the legendary matches, the friendships made on the road, and everything else you wouldn't mind sharing with us in between. A true living (and HUMBLE) legend.

    ""He couldnt let bret leave with the belt and end up at wcw", from a business perspective, Vince did the right but morally that was the worst way to do it. Taker was one of the most loyal company men and he was a leader in the ring and out of the ring/backstage

It's like in any wrestling promotion you don't jump ship from another company with there championship. Unless they are affiliated with each other new Japan, AEW, TNA ect
