There will never ever be another heel character like this. I'm glad they went with such a monstrous version of Taker during the Attitude Era, he was truly the greatest heel of that time.
Lol what are you talking about. Did you forget Stone Cold? How about Corporate Rock? Way better heels than Taker at the time. But taker gets credit for lasting longer than both in this business through reinventing his character over the years.
@@MS-dc2tt lol did you forget that they were standard heels that simply sold out? Compared to Taker who was an absolute monster with his demonic acts that he could only get away with during the Attitude Era. Seriously how is this even a contest!?
Mark admitted that this is one of his happiest moments as the Undertaker.. He had his own stable and he had free range to be as hellish as he wanted to be.. I agree! He was just a monster cult leader..
@@charlestonbowman1022 I agree. The Character Development for 99 Taker was awesome. He legit seemed like a guy you wouldn’t want to fuck with back then. (although Taker’s badass in general)
Ministry Taker with the pulled back top knot and the anton lavay goatee minus the stache and this music yes I would say this was the most intense and intimidating undertaker, big evil heel biker taker from late 01 to mid 02 is a close second.
Taker will always be are childhood, no matter what, grew up watching him in 1990 through out 2009 and I am glad that it ended in my teenage years in 2009. taker was that good, no one can say who’s born in 2007 and today that they grew up watching taker cause that’s just a slap on the faces for us, who grew up watching him first as a kid 😎
Best gimmick. Best in ring attire. Best entrance music. This is also the years taker started to become more versatile in the ring. Overall the best version of the undertaker.
Me too, don't scare me anymore though, but used to 💩 myself when watching him on tv , plus i have seen him (deadman persona) , kane (unmasked) and bald headed big show live. Ministry of darkness undertaker is definitely my favourite and at the royal rumble 1999 when he had apa attack viscera and pulled his hoody down , rolled his eyes back then stared at viscera that really scared the 💩 out of me. Wrestlers that used to scare me as a child growing up watching wwf 1. Minustry of darkness Undertaker 2. Masked Kane 3.Mankind 4.Goldust 5.Gangrel
Yeah, you could feel that demonic force from him which wasn't good. Wouldn't be surprised if he's possessed for real. I believe he is. He looks possessed outside the character.
@@4zafinc Yeah, I agree but he looks possessed even outside the character when he's being himself. 👀👀👀👀 I honestly think that character did something to him mentally. Just my personal opinion.
No matter which version of the Undertaker, whether it's the original deadman, the american badass, Phenom or the ministry gimmick, He's always the Legend.
Hes the entire reason I started watching wrestling! I was just flipping through the channels one night and saw a dark screen with a crowd, I knew it was wrestling but I never saw an entrance like that before, I watched the match, was impressed by his physicality in the ring, and was hooked ever since!
Most demonic version of Undertaker and my personal favorite version.. I was only 8 when he formed ministry and This Undertaker used to scare the shit out of me as a kid
When this Undertaker was the main WWF villian, really feeled like OMG we are f*cked. Because regular villians they felt like cowardly liars who win only by cheating. instead the ministry of darkness really felt like something awe-inspiring that was won by brute force. And yeah I know i know,before someone answer me, the ministry of darkness did cheat at times. But wasn't the only way to win like most main antagonist in this show.
Agreed. I watched the entire Ministry Taker run and it really felt like watching a villain trying to takeover the world. It was like holy shit, Is Undertaker actually gonna rule the WWF? WWE/F just don’t make good villains these days
My thoughts pretty much. That shit blew me away as a kid, I remember being so frightened at the same time... even the theme songs couldn't have been more perfect. It really was the absolute peak of their creativity in terms of everything writing, acting, talent, theatrics. Too bad they have shit writers now. Rock and metal music was such a big part of their image, I think that's what made all the difference between then and now. With all that gone now you have this yuppie duppie superman punch cheesefest, its literally unwatchable.
There are sooooo many like us all around the world who were kids when THE UNDERTAKER lived this character and it terrified us. Now most of us are in their thirtees and seeing this takes us back in time and brings smile. Thanks to the phenom the great Undertaker for making our childhood great. There would be be only ONE like the great Undertaker
The cool thing is that Mark was ALWAYS in Character. I really wish more wrestlers were like it. The Dumb Scmucks and Kenny Twinkle Toes McFingerbang did a LOT to destroy the wrestling industry. Did I know that Mark Calloway was playing a character? Yes. But the fact that he was in character ALL the time make it BELIEVABLE. Frankly the ONLY other person in USA like that is Gangrel.
I'm 39, watched him debut in 90, cried at his final match, and have always accepted the lord and darkness as my savior! This version of the Undertaker and his theme just resonates and still does even after years! My utmost favorite Taker.
When I was a kid back in 1998/99 This version of The Undertaker use to scare the crap out of me but yet I was curious 😂 that’s how you know they had gold back then the old days. ❤
This was deffinitely Undertaker's peak: one of his best gimmicks, leader of one of the most fearsome and unstoppable stables (if we discard the whole "Corporate-Ministry" thing), he was at a extremely good age (33-34) and he got what I could say it was his best physical condition in his entire career. The Undertaker was a beast in the late 90's (We could say he was "The Beast"?)
If you watch this period, it was actually a time were he did the least action in the ring, because he had lots of injuries that built up. His match quality was quite poor, but because he made the character so scary it didn't actually matter. Don't forget he was out for a long while at the between I think September/October 1999. until May/June 2000. Even he said he couldn't wrestle much in 1999 hence why they have him so many promos at the time
I love the Ministry of Darkness era of The Undertaker. It used to scare me as a kid. My all time favorite era of The Undertaker. That's why he is The Lord of Darkness
Man, these were glorious times. Switching back between Nitro and Raw. Seeing stuff like this going on that we still talk about all these years later. Wish I could go back to those days.
The "Accept The Lord of Darkness as your savior" gives me chills. I found out about this version of Taker 7 years ago. I wasn't born in the 90s but I wish I was, Imagine seeing The Undertaker at his prime! This is without a doubt my favorite Gimmick. I'd say this is the best character he played in his career way better than The Hybrid Undertaker.
I knew him from video games in the early 2000s and was scared of him in like 2004-06 when he appeared on tv sometimes. But in 2008 i started watching the AE and he is my fav since.
I watched this version of him while I was a kid and he’s still the best character and heel of all time. Ministry of Darkness Undertaker was the height of his evil powers.
@@countryboyred i start watching wrestling in 2000 that time triple h was the champion feuding with mick foley.. saw Undertaker first time during judgement day as a biker didn't know his previous character then i buy all the 1999 wrestling vcd ppv and see him in different character pure evil damn i were 1 year late
A truely terrifying sole and prince of darkness. A walking dead with a dominating spirit sabotage all. Miss you Phenome for give my best childhood golden memories. R.I.P .
This was a true character, who causes impression, amazement, admiration, loaded with enormous adrenaline along with the best entertainment. WWE needs to work on their roster to try to make them as memorable as Dead Man and improve his performance both in the ring and in his character. Today Mark is and always will be the Undertaker
It's awesome how even when he was the company's top heel and was doing unspeakable things such as literally crucifying people, beating anyone who dared to cross in her path to near death and even going as far as targeting a young Stephanie, the people still cheered at him. This character was like the Antichrist: Evil but extremely charismatic
This is perhaps the greatest Ministry Taker compilation ever. Whenever i watch it, I basically relive my childhood in 4 minutes. Awesome work and the quality of each clip is excellent 👌🏻
Mark Callaway was born for this role. From the Master of Pain to the Ministry of Darkness to the American Badass to Big Evil or simply The Phenom Nobody else in the history of wrestling could have pulled off this gimmick. Even the M.O.P. , "The Punisher" Dice Morgan and "Mean Mark Callous" seem like early incarnations of the American Badass. The way he played the Deadman character, how it transitioned to the Ministry and then to the Badass, and how easily he brought back the Deadman, but new and improved was simply amazing. All his gimmicks and personas are forms of The Undertaker and he made it believable.
My single biggest regret as a wrestling fan is that I never got a chance to see Undertaker wrestle live. But I hope that when this pandemic I can meet him IRL and get his autograph or something. Hands down my favourite wrestler of all time.
I’ve seen him wrestle twice. I saw him and Brock at No Mercy 2002 Hell in a Cell. And again in like 07. In 07 the woman sitting next to me was a massive Undertaker fan! When the first “gong” hit for his entrance, she burst into tears! She had never seen him live and he was really the only reason she bought tickets! She couldn’t contain herself after being pretty relax before he came out. That’s the effect he has on people man…his aura is one of a kind. That entrance live on a random smackdown was amazing! I can’t even imagine what a Wrestlemania version in person would be like!
I saw Taker v. Yokozuna at a house show in Baltimore and they did the casket match. i swear it really got colder in the arena. nothing like it!! (side Note: where I also found out Yoko wasnt japanese because i overheard him talking)
MY ALL TIME FAVORITE UNDERTAKER!!! My inner teenager has got goosebumps. 1:53 Undertaker's Wrestlemania entrance with that outfit looked sick as hell. It's liked Dracula and Satan fused together
Yep! Damn right! Undertaker was super devoted to making his 1999 Form as evil and menacing as possible. I heard he hated when The Corporate Ministry happened. I can believe this because if you look around At Undertaker in his Corporate Ministry Segments he actually looks bored and uncaring of what’s going on around him.
@@Wrestling316 ya he did say the ministry was good but it was one of his lowest points in his careers because of the corporate ministry. If the higher power was Jake Roberts then taker's opnion on the CM would have been extremely different.
@@airjordanfan11 True..the ministry could've been the greatest run for the undertaker if only the corporate ministry didn't ruin it..for sure thats why he turned into his real persona the american badass cause he thought that the deadman character was ruined
3:30 Hot chick thinks she can tempt and manipulate the Undertaker with her body, like she does with mere mortals; this is the Lord of Darkness. He doesn’t want your body… he wants your soul. (GONG)
Undertaker has always been my favorite wrestler and when I saw this I was blown away by how dark they got with him. This was a truly terrifying villain.
I was 9 when all all this was going on and I was scared of this phenom and his ministry now I'm 32 going on 33 and it still gives me chills. Best Taker version ever. Nice to have been part of it as a young fan!
This was the version of the Undertaker when I started watching as a kid. By far his best rendition. Dude was massive at that time as well. His shoulders and arms were huge.
Undertaker siempre será mi luchador favorito aunque ya esté retirado veo todas sus luchas y sin duda alguna es el mejor....en honor a el jugando todas las wwe con su hermano kane y me gustó mucho esa canción cuándo se enfrentó con Big Boss Man
Kind of ironic you say that, this version of Taker came about BECAUSE he was badly injured but Vince really needed him badly to work, so he worked... so casting him as an evil faction boss with underlings that fought for him let him take it easy most nights and keep physical work to an extreme minimum. If he was healthy, there's a chance the entire faction would not have happened
@@chrisbuttonshaw2088 Edge and Christian would have made it some other way. They're more than good enough to carry themselves, it just helped that at the time them plus Gangrel were a perfect fit for the Ministry. APA... Eh... yeah... I dunno... I never once thought JBL was any good, ever. Farooq is okay... just okay.
Idk why but this theme was my absolute FAVORITE Undertaker theme song! Just so badass I can’t even describe it…..hell I even tried learning it on guitar as a kid
Best version of Taker ever. All they did was take his existing character and amplified it to match the renegade vibe that the WWF was at that time. A masterpiece.
I've watched the WWF from the Early 90s to around 2010 and Ministry Taker was always my favorite. Something so dark so sinister and captive all at the same time! Jim Johnston is a beast too🤘🤘
This was easily Taker's best entrance theme. The guitar riff goes so hard. Ministry of Darkness Undertaker wasn't the best version of his character, but it's MY personal favorite version.
This was when Taker had the best heel turn in the history of WWE, his portrayal as the Lord of Darkness, his look, his song theme and his Ministry of Darkness was just brilliant.
There will never ever be another heel character like this. I'm glad they went with such a monstrous version of Taker during the Attitude Era, he was truly the greatest heel of that time.
is he actually a heel at that time...
@@ziragers9562 yeah
Lol what are you talking about. Did you forget Stone Cold? How about Corporate Rock? Way better heels than Taker at the time. But taker gets credit for lasting longer than both in this business through reinventing his character over the years.

This was undoubtedly his best entrance theme
Mark admitted that this is one of his happiest moments as the Undertaker.. He had his own stable and he had free range to be as hellish as he wanted to be.. I agree! He was just a monster cult leader..
@@kenrickkahn It was definitely his most interesting segment in his career from my perspective as a fan
Nah. The updated version of this was way better
同感
@@kenrickkahnhey didn't like ministry to much especially when it got really dark
This is my favourite version of Undertaker
Mine too
Hell yeah ministry of darkness undertaker was the best undertaker out there
@@charlestonbowman1022 I agree. The Character Development for 99 Taker was awesome. He legit seemed like a guy you wouldn’t want to fuck with back then. (although Taker’s badass in general)
@@Wrestling316 indeed plus he had too many followers even though he didn't need them at times
@@charlestonbowman1022 Nah. He was good with his stable. Now The Corporate Ministry is a different story
I can't believe he was only in his early 30s at this point in his career, the character work is unbelievable.
This taker was terrifying af
He was the same age back then as I am now, 33-34.😮
33/34 to be exact.
@@IHateTH-cam-sr1wjword
This version of Taker.. gave us kids nightmare...truly GOAT ...

🎩🪦@@keepthatsameenergypodcast
In my opinion this was the absolute best version of The Undertaker, music included!!!
Also check out ain't no grave wm 27 theme song it suits perfect for taker.
this song makes me want to join a satanic cult just so i can listen to this song everyday
Should have kept this
Ministry Taker with the pulled back top knot and the anton lavay goatee minus the stache and this music yes I would say this was the most intense and intimidating undertaker, big evil heel biker taker from late 01 to mid 02 is a close second.
@@LilBobSabMinistry Undertaker couldn't work in today's WWE. Way too many people would get offended cause of the satanic nature of the gimmick.
even if he has retired he is still the best wrestler ever in my heart
Fax there won't be another Undertaker. Not even Bray Wyatt can replace Taker.
@@art_the_king02 Definetly
Can nobody match the same dark and evil energy as undertaker except Kane
Exactly
Taker will always be are childhood, no matter what, grew up watching him in 1990 through out 2009 and I am glad that it ended in my teenage years in 2009. taker was that good, no one can say who’s born in 2007 and today that they grew up watching taker cause that’s just a slap on the faces for us, who grew up watching him first as a kid 😎
Jim Johnston ought to be in the WWE Hall of Fame just for creating the most iconic wrestler's theme song. Criminally underrated!
In 2024 hope it happens
I dont know why he is still not there yet he deserves his spot
@danielmitchell893 yeah he really does. The shit entrance music today doesn't compare
Referees and the camera crew should be in the hall of fame
To underated man
the true final boss of wrestlemania.. rock you got smoked..
Best gimmick. Best in ring attire. Best entrance music. This is also the years taker started to become more versatile in the ring. Overall the best version of the undertaker.
He was real slow. Not the best
@@Snyper1405he was the best lmao
Ministry Undertaker scared the hell out of me as a kid...and he still does at 35.
As a kid? I'm 37, and I was 15 when this was going on. Which means you were 13.
He was saying under taker was 35 when he does this
@@praveenreddy6542 or he could be 35. I was 5 in 1999 now I'm 27 and this still freaks me out

Yeah, you could feel that demonic force from him which wasn't good. Wouldn't be surprised if he's possessed for real. I believe he is. He looks possessed outside the character.
imagne ministry undertaker vs sting 1997
They ruined it by merging with Corporation. Also no way this gimmick would work unless Taker looked legit scary
@@4zafinc Yeah, I agree but he looks possessed even outside the character when he's being himself. 👀👀👀👀 I honestly think that character did something to him mentally. Just my personal opinion.

:)
Me from 2024 from future 😂
Here in 2024!!!
Hallo
Naw, Undies was a boring wrestler, but this song is incredible. The only time he was fun to watch was 1999-2004.
This is Undertaker best theme!!!
With guitars, bass, drums and orchestra
Excellent! 🙂
This version of the undertaker had so many iconic moments
No matter which version of the Undertaker, whether it's the original deadman, the american badass, Phenom or the ministry gimmick, He's always the Legend.
Hes the entire reason I started watching wrestling!

@@danielberry1146 So do I.
Those young undertakers would destroy wrestlers today!!!!
Jesus Christ changes everything He loves u and type in upci church locator for a church near u try Acts 238
There was just something special about this version though. They never go back and show it but the thing with Mideon freaked me the fuck out as a kid
Tbh this is the most dangerous Undertaker phase ever , looks terryfyingly good
Yeah and nerds want to say American "badass" Undertake was the most danger when he lost to the likes of Maven and Matt Hardy😂
Most demonic version of Undertaker and my personal favorite version.. I was only 8 when he formed ministry and This Undertaker used to scare the shit out of me as a kid
The looks, the theme song, the presence, his in ring performances: peak Undertaker, this is why he became my favorite wrestler of all times
One of the greatest theme songs ever.
This version of the Undertaker scared the shit out of me when I was a kid.
Same af lol
makes sense
Imagine this version vs the Fiend
Same, until the rock cut the promo of the undertakers micky mouse tattoos and 33 pound head lol
😂🤣🤣
Nobody can replace Undertaker, he is the only one phenom in WWE and in real life.
4:05 Taker’s Clothesline Flip is perfection👌
💯
This was Undertaker’s true final boss form
That’s exactly what I came here to say!
Real fans know real wrestling and this Undertaker was THE FINAL BOSS I never saw The Rock as that lololol
@@razielx1076Rock would be the tutorial boss if anything
Beat me to it!
Yeah. Last month at WrestleMania 40 Sunday, Undertaker came back to WWE and gave The Rock a devastating chokeslam during Cody Rhodes vs. Roman Reigns.
Unsung hero of the Attitude Era
This Undertaker basically had turned into Satan, used to creep me out.
That is what he saying on low key voice satanas

The Lord of Darkness.

This version of Taker was simply "The lord of darkness".
It's crazy how that skull at 3:44 was in his ministry titantron, this shows how far taker was willing to make his character evil and very dark
Yep! Damn right! Undertaker was super devoted to making his 1999 Form as evil and menacing as possible. I heard he hated when The Corporate Ministry happened. I can believe this because if you look around At Undertaker in his Corporate Ministry Segments he actually looks bored and uncaring of what’s going on around him.
@@Wrestling316 ya he did say the ministry was good but it was one of his lowest points in his careers because of the corporate ministry. If the higher power was Jake Roberts then taker's opnion on the CM would have been extremely different.
@@airjordanfan11 Agreed! I’m guessing he loved The December 1998-May 1999 Ministry Of Darkness Era
@@Wrestling316 ya probably
@@airjordanfan11 True..the ministry could've been the greatest run for the undertaker if only the corporate ministry didn't ruin it..for sure thats why he turned into his real persona the american badass cause he thought that the deadman character was ruined
Best custom video of the undertaker i have ever saw
Thank you!

3:30 Hot chick thinks she can tempt and manipulate the Undertaker with her body, like she does with mere mortals; this is the Lord of Darkness. He doesn’t want your body… he wants your soul. (GONG)
That was sable I believe
@@Fishing_n_lifting yep sure was
Sigma Taker. 🗿
Thats some badass sh1t right there
If you talk about sabel she loves lesnar a little maybe this is why lesner ended the streake of this lorddarkness man mark calaway
This was the most badass, the undertaker attitude era
Everything about this group was actually terrifying, he played such a good villain.
Best version of the Undertaker character. Terrifying in every way and loved that robe he wore.
Undertaker has always been my favorite wrestler and when I saw this I was blown away by how dark they got with him. This was a truly terrifying villain.
There will never be another like the undertaker. He’s a true legend
Yeah cos he stayed for 30 years while others in his era done 10x more than him in just 3 years like the rock and austin 😂😂😂
This was by far the best undertaker ever
0:24 when the beat drops
This theme is chilling me everytime, Lord of Darkness The Undertaker!
This one the best custom titantrons I've ever seen on TH-cam and given it's about The Undertaker that makes it perfect. Kudos 👌
This was my favourite version of Taker. The one that lasted the least longest. 😥
I was 9 when all all this was going on and I was scared of this phenom and his ministry now I'm 32 going on 33 and it still gives me chills. Best Taker version ever. Nice to have been part of it as a young fan!
0:49 - 1:02 & 2:37 - 2:50 ARE MY FAVORITE PARTS! I Love that specific part and how In rhythm they are🔥🖤.
Mine too 🔥
This was the version of the Undertaker when I started watching as a kid. By far his best rendition. Dude was massive at that time as well. His shoulders and arms were huge.
Undertaker siempre será mi luchador favorito aunque ya esté retirado veo todas sus luchas y sin duda alguna es el mejor....en honor a el jugando todas las wwe con su hermano kane y me gustó mucho esa canción cuándo se enfrentó con Big Boss Man
2:04...just look at the faces in crowd..... pure terror ....there will never be another gimmick like the Undertaker
Absolutely my favorite version of The Undertaker.
Same
I'm sure that if Taker didn't had the injuries he had at that time, he would had his greatest moments in his amazing career
💯
I know that's right!!!!!!!
Kind of ironic you say that, this version of Taker came about BECAUSE he was badly injured but Vince really needed him badly to work, so he worked... so casting him as an evil faction boss with underlings that fought for him let him take it easy most nights and keep physical work to an extreme minimum. If he was healthy, there's a chance the entire faction would not have happened
@@shirakani and how many other wrestlers would we not have then? would EDGE & Christian exist still?!?! or the APA!?
@@chrisbuttonshaw2088 Edge and Christian would have made it some other way. They're more than good enough to carry themselves, it just helped that at the time them plus Gangrel were a perfect fit for the Ministry.
APA... Eh... yeah... I dunno... I never once thought JBL was any good, ever. Farooq is okay... just okay.
He was the greatest!! I love him more than anyone walking this planet!! I miss him so.
My favorite Taker theme, without question!
Omg. He is GORGEOUS❤
Taker was looking smooth with the belt
Taker always looked good with the belts, sadly, he was only world champ 7 times.
Wonderful tribute. It captures all his best ministry moments!
His Wrestlemania XV entrance is horrifically underrated.
As entrance, yes You are right
But the Match.... Was awful
@@cmezauniThe match was awful which is why the ending was the most memorable part.
Thank you,
Jim Johnston!
What a raw talent.. mind boggling
Taker from 96-99 was just unbelievable, the storylines and rivalries he had were flawless entertainment.
Oh my God this is incredible!
Just the greatest theme of the greatest superstar
CHANGE MY FUCKING MIND
When Taker started the Ministry of Darkness it legit scared the crap out of me as a kid.
he was beast in this era
ministry of darkness and unholy alliance ..two best versions of the taker..damn miss those days ..
Best version of taker
god i fucking love this, i loved the ministry of darkness, his best form in my opinion ❤️️
Astua36
This Undertaker would've destroyed Both Lesnar and Reigns
He already defeated them in his prime now he is old that's why losed
@@bakislayer He only faced Reigns once, that was Mania 33. I don't think he faced Lesnar like this either.
He would kill lesnar and Reigns
@@optimus2008 regins is trash
@@bakislayer wrestling is staged, you know that right?
0:37 gets me hyped and the whole song does
The Aura in this video is UNMATCHED!
This was by far my favourite version of Taker. I wish he'd had one more go at it before he retired.
Hands down the best ever. The GOAT..i believed in his mystical powers at 10 and still do now at 35...What an inspiration!!
Idk why but this theme was my absolute FAVORITE Undertaker theme song! Just so badass I can’t even describe it…..hell I even tried learning it on guitar as a kid
Nice bro 💪🏼 a true undertaker fan
Best version of Taker ever. All they did was take his existing character and amplified it to match the renegade vibe that the WWF was at that time. A masterpiece.
I've watched the WWF from the Early 90s to around 2010 and Ministry Taker was always my favorite. Something so dark so sinister and captive all at the same time!
Jim Johnston is a beast too🤘🤘
This was easily Taker's best entrance theme. The guitar riff goes so hard.
Ministry of Darkness Undertaker wasn't the best version of his character, but it's MY personal favorite version.
This version of Taker is legit scary
4:05 this part taker impressed me......
He used to do a yearly Mania run the back ropes, and dive over the front ropes into his opponent.
@@Deadpool_64 i mean the flip tho
@@KurtIsNowTaken frontflip
This titantron compilation is a sheer masterpiece. Perfectly edited with the music.
Vince: ‘Mark, we need a monster heel…’
Taker: ‘No problem, now cooking the greatest that you’ve ever seen’
The best undertaker ever
This was when Taker had the best heel turn in the history of WWE, his portrayal as the Lord of Darkness, his look, his song theme and his Ministry of Darkness was just brilliant.
