He was more "satanic" if you will. Sacrifcing people on his symbol which resembled crucifixtion. Burning his symbol on the McMahon's lawn. The way he would stick out his tongue and roll his eyes into the back of his head.
I guess he just wasn't pleased with the more extreme direction his character had taken. He pretty much became the devil.
That is when I started watching (the Greater Power storyline was the first huge angle I saw, so it holds a place in my heart for one of my favorite angles even if the outcome was disappointing), so for me, I thought the whole thing was pretty cool. Since then, I have seen older footage and matches and whatnot. His older gimmick was sweet too. Not that I didn't know who Undertaker was before I watched. That is the gimmick I believe he will be returning with.
