Taker's Theatrics

[Muttley]

I was thinking about this after Summerslam and didn't see any topic like this in the forum, but after Undertaker 'appearing' in the casket at Summerslam after seeing that it was empty multiple times I began thinking about ALL of Undertaker's promos, 'stunts', entrances, etc. and how many he's actually pulled off. Whether it gives goosebumps or a 'holy shit' moment, Taker is no stranger to the theatrics in WWE...especially with the move to SyFy, we might even see a little bit more on a weekly basis.

To keep the initial question short, what has been your FAVORITE Undertaker promo, stunt, entrance?? This appearing in the casket trick at Summerslam? Throwing Edge 'to hell'? The creepy little girls jumping rope video promo back when he returned as American Bad Ass? Putting Paul Bearer in a cement tomb? The possibilities are endless...so what's you're favorite theatric of The Deadman??

Well, my absolute favourite is when Undertaker dragged Deisel under the ring. I was young and I was fucking scared to death. But as I grew older, I found myself thinking it was actually really awesome.

I'd say some of my favorite Taker promos had to be:

his feud with Randy Orton leading up to SS after their WM match? I think..
Where the casket was brought out and RKO thought he would put taker in it, and when they did a close up, they should Bob Orton and RKO in it. I was tripping out on that!!

Then I also was majorly digging after Edge cashing in MITB on an injured Taker after Henry assaulted him, the druids came out and carried him away. When you would see Mark HEnry take out many local jobbers after the time passed, he would brag about how he took out Taker, then the arena would go dark and the jumbotron would show vignettes about Taker's history of retuning, with eerie images of a desert and a snake (I think.) That was probably the coolest ones I recall.

Another honorable mention, was after the Montreal Screwjob II where Punk and the ref screwed Taker over, and Teddy Long gets into the limo on SD, and the doors and back of the limo starts going crazy. Then taker appears and you see Teddy Long gasp in horror. I was loving every second of that.

My favorite of all time would HAVE to be when he broke into Paul Bearers house,
A little while after Kane debuted,
& mauled him,
"WHAT YOU THINK I FORGOT WHERE YOU LIVED"
HA
CLASSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I liked his Orton promos. My favorite one would be the one where he appeared in the mirror while Orton was looking at the mirror. I liked the Orton casket one too. This latest one was pretty trippy, I'd love to see how 'Taker does these stunts. It must be pretty hard. Can't be too easy. I think with the move to SyFy he'll do more of them.

 

[Trivia247]

the theatrics were probably very prominent during the Taker Kane original feud, I mean pyro and throwing Lightning bolts and effigies lol cool.

Crucifying Austin.....

actually sorta non theatric were during his American bad ass days...

when Austin was all hurt and they were carting him to tha ambience when suddenly he's in the driver seat... "HELLO BOYS!"

or right after he lost to Austin...he appeared in his dressing room and got right in Debra's face "HEY WOMAN YOU SCARED YoU Should be!" Austin just couldn't do crap to him.
a segment so nice... we all have to see it again..
