I would have to say the one from 98-00. A little before the ministry and a little after.

Didn't really care for Limp Bizkit's "Rollin'", with the exception of the spooky music at the start and the footsteps and of course 'Taker doing his "DEAD MAN WALKIN'" voice over work...

Also, in those clips during that theme he had, there was a pretty sick chokeslam he did to Cena (see the 1:31-1:33 section)

Maybe, I remember him saying he didn't like it when Vince joined though.

I like the original 'Taker. Just for nostalgic purposes. I remember being generally freaked out by the aftermath of the Yokozuna casket match at the Rumble.

Other than that, current 'Taker is my favorite because of the matches he has been able to put on.

My reasoning is pretty simple, I simply don't buy gimmicky wrestlers. I know it's unpopular, but I like Kane more without the mask, simply a big guy who's looking for a fight. I like Taker because I could understand a giant bad ass riding around on a Harley. There's a world of difference between an embellished personality and a downright fictional gimmick. I don't like gimmicks. Plus, I mark like a bitch for the Last Ride Powerbomb.

I will say in terms of match quality, his best matches have actually been since his most recent return as the deadman. But in terms of personality and marking out for a guy, yeah it was Biker Taker all the way for me.

I have a couple of theories:

*Booger Red meant that he was the type to punch you right on the nose and soak your boogers red with YOUR OWN BLOOD!!!!

OR

*You would be alarmed if you picked out a red booger as opposed to a green or yellowish one. He was the booger that you DIDN'T want to pick (a fight with).

***

Both of these theories are quite dumb, but that's the best I can make of it.

Did you, however see the impact of the chokeslam on that vid from him to Cena at about the 1:32 mark? I'll bet Cena did not know where he was for about 12 hours after that match.

In a kayfabe way, early Taker. I mean i was young, and believe things more back then, but that was the mysterious Taker and he played it perfect. I also think Paul Bearer added to this mystique.

In my current capacity (what are we called? MARKS / SMARKS?), whatever, I like corporate / ministry Taker. The whole "IT'S ME AUSTIN" time was an amazing storyline and one of my favourites.

Hasn't Taker actually stated before that he didn't enjoy doing the whole 'Ministry of Darkness' thing?

Like Savior mentioned, it was actually more that Taker really didn't like being portrayed as a Corporate Bitch, and it didn't suit where the Undertaker was as a character at that time. He was supposed to be (and was) an demonic beast and outlaw but in the end he was just McMahon's bitch. After the whole Corporate Ministry thing, he returned to being what he was meant to be in the Unholy Alliance.

Anyway, Taker in 98-99 was great, and the current Taker now is a great combination of all his past characters, and puts out the best matches he ever has.

Wasn't the biggest ABA fan. He was pretty much like everybody else.
