Undertaker's new look when he will return

[Guest reshad974]

ok we know that he is returning with his dead man gimmick but what will be his look ? I really hope he goes back to his 90-96 attire with grey gloves, hat, etc....and not his 96-99 look. What do you think ?

[Jack_Bauer 0]

I also wanna see the grey boots and gloves again.

[deancoles 0]

He'll most probably use his 97-98 look.

[eiker_ir 0]

I prefer the Purple Gloves myself, but he'll probably just go back to the look of 1998. That's good enough for me.

[Guest BionicRedneck]

He'll probably have a "new" look, which is basically just a mixture of several old looks.

[Nevermortal 0]

Swerve everyone and have him come out as American Bad-ass.

[Nighthawk 0]

That would be hilarious.

 

Speaking of which, that makes me wonder if he'll be doing the Last Ride anymore.

I don't see why everyone is getting so hyped about this. It's the same wrestler everyone has bitched about for the past who-knows-how-many years. If you think he's less likely to say "Eh, I'm not feelin' it," as the deadman, then you're in for a rude awakening.

...but it all begins again.

 

Right?

 

RIGHT?!?!?!?

That would be fucking HILARIOUS.

But...but...it's THE DEADMAN~!

 

THE DEADMAN~!

Yeah, I'm not really looking forward to his return, either.

[Guest Your Olympic Hero]

I vote for the purple over the gray.

He'll have a completely new look like L.O.D. 2000. It'll hit the original points (like L.O.D.'s Spiked Shoulder Pads) but it'll all be new.

 

I really liked The Undertaker's run as the American Badass. Especially when he started incorporating more armwork and submission moves into his arsenal. It made it so that the "Old School" wasn't as pointless and that he had more than one or two ways to win a match. I distinctly remember a Dragon Sleeper victory and a leglock chokeout on the Big Show.

 

I like it when almost any move can win a match. It's boring when it has to be "hit a finisher to win the match" or "hit a false finisher then repeat" for main events. Why can't Triple H win with his Spinebuster a few times? He beat Jeff Hardy with a Sleeper. Randy Orton won with a DDT...and his finisher is the Diamond Cutter. It just doesn't happen often enough. How about letting RVD get a win after a Split-Legged Moonsault again? Or his Rolling Thunder? Or a German Suplex with Bridge?

 

It helps add to matches I feel. Near falls would be a lot more...near.

On a somewhat related note, regardless of who goes over at Mania, I'm expecting a tombstone finish.

I agree with the "standard moves" finishing a match point. I also like it when wrestlers would have several finishers at their disposal, but maybe that's the puro fan in me talking.

I've been saying this for a while now. Only thing is, whenever people win matches with sleepers, spinebusters, or even DDTs *ON A METAL STAGE*, people start bitching about how the person who lost is either buried or being made to look weak. I'm all for having matches end on non-finishing moves. Doing so would make near-falls mean something again, and would probably make live crowds a little bit hotter.

Who said I was a Taker hater? And I don't know what your definition of "complaining" is, but it certainly differs from mine. Re-read the post.. and if you still don't get what I'm saying, then go back to school.

[Guest JumpinJackFlash]

Anything but the satanic 1999 look. I hated that. I thought it was stupid, and he freaked me out. What was he saying in his entrance music, by the way?

[notJames 0]

I say the biker look with that crazy wide tie is the way to go. And I'd love it if he would stop talking, too.

 

::also not looking forward to one more year with 'Taker::

[Vyce 0]

I think we'll get a mix of the old school Taker and the Ministry of Darkness Taker.

 

The makeup has GOT to come back, though. I won't be happy unless his face is painted like a Dawn of the Dead refugee.

[Guest wrestlingbs]

The Undertaker will return....

 

 

...as "Mean" Mark Calloway!

 

Talk about old school.

[iliketurtles 0]

I see him coming back to his 97-98 look.

[Guest TheZsaszHorsemen]

It's interesting, because he's in as good a shape now as he was back in the 97-98 days (If 2003 was any indication) so I hope the return to the DeadMan style won't totally destroy the good workrate he's been giving.

[NoCalMike 0]

I see him coming back and moving around slower then EVER before.

[Steviekick 0]

Thats what I think will end it, as well.

 

Taker can still use the Last Ride (from Hell) and call it that. It's still eerie enough for the "deadman" gimmick.

[Steviekick 0]

At least his non-selling will make sense.

[Nevermortal 0]

They should give Kane/Taker a stipulation.

 

CASKET MATCH, BABY.
