I knew about this angle since about August I'm thinking.
I would be one of those people who would say that Taker as the Deadman cant work in 2004 for more than a short stint. So yeah, people are gonna mark out like crazy, just like they marked out when Hogan came back. But what will happen, just like it did with Hogan is that people realize its a tired act that belongs in a different time period and they will grow disinterested.
Now, thats not a guarantee, I mean people might stick with Taker long term, and maybe he should carry the company, but I doubt it. My guess is that by month two of the Deadman gimmick people will tired of it, and it wont do any business, and then Taker will have to go back to the Biker Taker, which is a better character for 2004.
