Ok so i had this neat little idea while in the shower this morning and the more i thought about it, the more it made sense to me, at least. So we cant really say just how long mean ol Mark Calaway has left before hanging up his boots, we really dont know. But Once that does happen i assure you we can say byebye to Mark and the story line will probailly play off as the Undertaker can now rest in peace. I can see that being a play off for marks retirement. But where does that leave his gimmick when he gone?
Now, to me the undertaker gimmick is something i could see being revisited for awhile, Think about it. Who really is the undertaker?(kayfabe aside) Hes the deadman, the phenom , The demon from death valley. Mark may not be able to rise again, but why not the undertaker gimmick? After an extended amount of time passes why cant somebody else take up the gimmick? Get somebody with the same basic size and look and i think you could pull it off After taker gets tired of "resting in peace" and maybe he awakes with a vengence. Sure most people will notice the change but after awhile i think theyd get use to seeing the deadman character back.
Now I know what your thinking. What about the streak. Well for the shake of this argument, lets say HBK or somebody else beats taker, Streaks over problem solved. Or if that dosent happen. Continue it and then just have him lose or start a whole new WM streak where the fans craniums dont implode when they decide to end it. There are many different ways this could play out.
But this is all what i think, feel free to disagree. This is something i think could work if done right as i feel the deadman gimmick is almost everlasting and can be brought back at any point with a new superstar carrying on the Undertaker legacy. Or they do it, bring it back and its just an epic fail.
What do you guys think? Could the undertaker gimmick be reborn in the future with a new maybe badder superstar behind the role? Or is it better for takers legacy that it just remain as it is once Marks done?
