I thought maybe I was the only one missing the Underbiker. This watered down version of the Undertaker just isn't cutting it for me. I could care less.

HEre's the problem.

Mark didn't want to play a role on TV. They let him more or less play himself.

The fans didn't like this: They wanted the REAL Undertaker. Not some dumb redneck called the Undertaker.

They cop out on a return by making him Bikertaker with a new hat. Bring back his old finisher, and make him wear mascara. Still the American Redneck, still has them big soup bones, still fights like a hick.

Fans cheer for him though, because he's got great production. I swear, if I had the kind of budget they use on Taker to make a wrestler, I could turn the worst fucker on this board into one of the most over characters ever.

You can't go back to the Deadman now. They broke with the character, and it no longer fits. But to be fair, the boring shit routine's been a staple of take through his Decade+ of destruction.
