Guest HHHater Report post Posted January 17, 2003 I know there aren't many Undertaker fans around here, but this was a big-time disappointment for me. I am a nostalgic, old-school WWF kinda guy and a huge Taker mark. I know that a lot of WWE fans were looking forward to the return of the Dead Man...even some of the Taker Haters. It was going to be one the coolest things that the WWE had done in quite some time, but now once again they've managed to turn chicken salad into chicken shit. Not only that, it was just plain dick of them to excite fans with the "Dead Man walks again" promos, and then fucking screw them a couple of weeks before the Rumble. Fuck you, WWE, FUCK YOU.

Guest NoCalMike Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Well I am not sure how he was going to grow his hair back in two months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HHHater Report post Posted January 17, 2003 On an additional note, I have decided that Vince and WWE just love fucking with the fans and rubbing shit in our faces. Remember that mean Bret Hart Anthology promo? What a tease. Then came The Undertaker gimmick swerve, and let's not forget Vince's "Austin was not invited"...I am starting to hate this company.

Guest HHHater Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Undertaker wouldn't need long hair to be the Dead Man. Just a pale skin tone, his old ring attire, and his old entrance. That's it. And it would have gotten way over. I am going to be attendance at the Royal Rumble, and I hope that the fans boo and chant, "We want the Dead Man" just to show WWE that they can't fuck with us like that.

Guest Anglesault Report post Posted January 17, 2003 I hate the company. I hope EVERYTHING THEY DO tanks, so they are forced to give the fans what they want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Electrifyer Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Maybe he'll pull a Mick Foley and come back as The Deadman first, then the Bad Ass after being eliminated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Satanico Report post Posted January 17, 2003 "The Dead Man" is dead why bring it back. It would've just been lame to bring it back now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh and you gotta admit, the "dead man" gimmick would look a lot different without the long hair covering up the face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest NoCalMike Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Oh and not to mention that since the UT wrestlers like a literal DEAD MAN....I am not so sure how his clothes and/or face paint make a difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LooseCannon25 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2003 I wish he could come back as the dead man but vince probably doesnt think it would make sense for him to turn back into a friggin zombie like that. Not that Vince ever makes sense anyway. He would look kind of weird as the dead man with a crew cut anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest art_vandelay Report post Posted January 17, 2003 They didn't drop the ball, a revamped Dead Man would have sucked. However, I do think they were being misleading purposely. Perhaps it was done just to get the fans talking about UT's return. If they bring back anyone from the dead it should be Al Wilson. RIP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HartFan86 Report post Posted January 17, 2003 If he returns as the Bad Ass, I for one and my friends will be booing the fuck out of it in Boston. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not that Vince ever makes sense anyway. He would look kind of weird as the dead man with a crew cut anyway. True, however it wouldn't make any less sense than the current situation with Kane. I mean why is Kane STILL supernatural?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HHHater Report post Posted January 17, 2003 He is coming back as the Bad Ass, now it's confirmed. I will be chanting right along with you, HartFan. Where are you sitting? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LooseCannon25 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Yay, now we get to see The BAd Ass vs. The Big Slow in a worst match of the year candidate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HHHater Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Yeah, at least it would have been cool to see Taker do the zombie sit-up and shit on Big Show...oh well. Fuck WWE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wwF1587 Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Hell if I was there I would boo the fuck out him too... I hope that if he does return as the bad ass (dont do it Vince... dont let me down again) that the whole crowd boos it.. and chants bullcrap.. but then again WWE would just take it as the fans want UT as a heel so....if the show really sucks...chant "REFUND!" yeah you wont get one but itd be funny near the end of the ppv to hear it.. of course the WWE would try to blur it out but..

Guest HHHater Report post Posted January 17, 2003 I hope there are crazy "We Want Austin", "We Want Bret", "We Want The Dead Man", "W-W-F", etc. chants. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HHHater Report post Posted January 17, 2003 What would WWE do if people brought a shitload of "WWF" signs to events? That would be hilarious. No way could they blur them all out or confiscate all of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Just call me Dan Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Speaking of W-W-F Why were they allowed to show all the old school WWF logos on Raw X, while still having to edit out the old logos on the clips? If they can show the old logos because they are just part of history, why wouldn't they be able to show WWF logos on at least microphones? Those clips belong to thier video library and are a part of history. Same difference, no? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HHHater Report post Posted January 17, 2003 The pre-Attitude logo is not the logo in question. It's the WWF "scratch logo". They can still show the pre-Attitude Era Federation logo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Just call me Dan Report post Posted January 17, 2003 That is ludicrous! It's like saying the word federation is not acceptable in scribble chalk, but is in 80's block letters! BAH! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HHHater Report post Posted January 17, 2003 Yeah, and I think there is actually more of a chance for "confusion" with the old Federation logo than the scratch logo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
