Will Undertaker's retirement be bigger than HBKs?
HBK and Flair had big retirements, long storylines that lead to them and great send offs. do you think The Undertaker will top both of those retirements?
Obviously, Taker is not considered as "great" as Flair and Shawn, but he has pioneered a lot of things in wrestling, is one of the most recognized big men, the first gothic character to make it big and loyal to the WWE for all the years it had competed with WCW. So, will Taker get a grand send off? that time might not be too far off... |

Not sure. If I recall, the current Undertaker is the 3rd person who played the gimmick, correct?
Have they got anyone down in FCW? The Tough Enough winner might be a good fit if his ability comes up to snuff, but his face might be too recognisable to slot into the role without people noticing. |

Was unsure if the WWE was only counting his singles career record since he was around 6-0 when he took on Taker but had a few tag matches and couldn't remember if he won all of them with Christian.

His entrances are twenty fucking minutes long. There will be a four Raw spectacular for Taker's retirement.

Before. I actually hated The Undertaker as a gimmick. Thought it was a relic from the 80's/early 90's comic book WWF which I hugely disliked.
However, the Ministry changed that. It changed the character from a zombie To a delusional man who believed his own gimmick but had the charisma as a cult leader to influence others. I enjoyed that evolution far more than biker taker, although I did find that to be better than his non-ministry stints. |

Randy Orton is the next Taker. Why?
Because they are both cold and silent types. Randy is likely to never reach the level of Austin or Cena due to him lacking an ability to input humanity into his character. Thus he becomes in some ways 2d. Take is of a similar cast in that respect yet Taker has achieved something greater in an entirely different and timeless way. Randy Orton will do something similar. He is a legend already and will continue to improve and ect. |

I doubt that it will be, but that's only because of his character..... unless he comes out as "Mark" the 50-year old guy who played The Undertaker, which I doubt we will see.....

I agree. The Undertaker is not a flashy wrestler by any means. He will either lose, end the streak and retire, or it will be known that win or lose, it will be Taker's last match and he will walk away! Why not, he has a smoken hot ass bitch to fuck at home!

I don't think it needs to come to that in order to do a major sendoff for the Undertaker.

My instant thought was "yes", after a bit of thinking I thought "hmm, maybe not". Now I'm at a "dunno", but I can't be bothered to explain any further than any of that.

I always thought 'Takers streak was more coincidence than any really planning,don't think even really mentioned it till it was at about 14. Thats the only way i can see it happening again.

I'm guessing he ended the night continuing such a streak of "terror" that having him enter the Rumble and be eliminated would have been a little step back. Meh. A streak of just competing in Rumbles isn't impressive or anything anyway. His streak of domination he's currently on is more important to keep up. Keep him looking unstoppable, even in a Royal Rumble match.

tough question. Taker has had the better career, hard to argue otherwise. He's been on top longer and loads of non fans know who he is. He's been a draw for the entire time he's been in the fed, while HBK was only a draw in his last fives years give or it take. so it stands to reason that there would be a larger fan base for taker. and i think there is, BUT HBK's demo is more vocal. HBK is more "beloved." so i think people would be more passionate about HBK reitering, but more people would be interested in Taker. 6 of one and half a dozen of the other.

It didn't count. He left the match early due to an "injury" and the contest wasn't pin or submission. It was not until his match against the Undertaker, when he lost his first WM.

Plus, it's a technicality anyway. If you keep a streak because of a technicality like that it's officially not even worth counting the streak anymore. He competed in a match that he didn't win. |

First Mention of The Streak: Wrestlemania 11 in 1995, McMahon mentions that the Undertaker is undefeated at Wrestlemania... it's at 2:20 in this clip
My favorite look for the Undertake is the current one. My favorite Undertaker match is v.s Steve Austin at Summerslam 98, followed by HBK at WM 25, followed by Triple H at last years show, followed by Hell in a Cell Badd Blood with Shawn Michaels, followed by Hell in a Cell with Mankind, Followed by Cold Day in Hell with Mankind, followed by Hell in a Cell with Brock Lesnar... many others follow, he's had many great and forgotten matches. The best wife he's ever had is Michelle Undertaker The best Undertaker inspired poster on TPWW is obviously Taker It Easy, he's had a gloved hand in changing all of us. The best Taker inspired gimmick match is Hell in a Cell The best Taker inspired PPV name is Cold Day in Hell The best Taker storyline is the story of Kane The best Taker stare may have been on Raw this past Monday looking at his legacy in the Wrestlemania 28 sign The best Taker title run was in 1997 The best Taker tag partner was Big Show in 99 K? |
