Lets imagine if the undertaker was a black african american.his gimmick and push stays the same, he is just a big black dude. Do u think he would have gotten as popular or is there hidden racism in the wrestling world?

Black people tend to be pretty big. I mean, we bred them that way. You don't want scrawny field labour, do you?

There's racism everywhere. Even psychological racism that people don't even realize that they possess.

But to answer this question....we don't know.

He plays a dead man gimmick who shoots lightening bolts out his fingertips, I doubt anything would of stopped him from being popular if he can get over with that baggage and besides, black people always die first in the movies and TV shows anyway.

This is actually a good question. Judging by Papa Shango, it could go either way, but in the early 90's there was a dearth of black stars and it was around that time that Ron Simmons broke the color barrier and became World Champion. Could go either way, but I don't think they would have done anything different if Mark happened to be black.

That is interesting, because the argument is that it was Mark, not the Undertaker that got over with the fans. Supposedly, there was somebody using the "Undertaker" gimmick before him (not Brian Lee). I guess it's like asking if Steve Lombardi had been the Original Doink instead of Matt Borne, would the character been as popular?
