WrestleMania XXV.

Seriously, though, I think a lot of it had to do with how protected the character was. Taker came through when people really bought into the larger than life heroes. There was nothing more intimidating than The Undertaker to those fans, because he would be uneffected by offense, and appeared to be just what he claimed to be.

Adam Bomb's name just sounds like a joke, and Papa Shango worked to some degree, but I think lacked the same commitment as The Undertaker.
