Jiji Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Undertaker's mostly been a shitty promo for his entire career. That was pretty much par for the course for him. While I didn't love a lot about Bikertaker, that was clearly the period he was most at home on the mic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(BP) Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Taker's best run on the mic was during the Big Evil phase and it's not even close. He did look shook Monday coming to the ring without his normal lighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Yeah he's been mostly a mediocre or slightly worse promo with occasional gems. He's great at delivering one or two badass lines, but not at filling time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I will never, ever criticize the Undertaker's promos after this moment: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go2Sleep Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Taker's best long promo was when he talked about leaving Big Show in the desert. Also, the Revival are DOA. Not just because they got beat up by ancient DX/Kliq this week, but because they were given a "we're serious wrestlers who are being held down" gimmick, then got beaten up by ancient DX/Kliq. Wouldn't be surprised if they're the new jobber team now that Gallows/Anderson and Titus Worldwide are getting slight pushes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The jobber team is clearly Slater/Rhyno, who Revival beat upon their return, Revival have gotten squash matches just to get them over, and the WWE almost certainly views "guys that get to stooge for the Klique" as a primo spot - see Slater's run of stooging for legends. He eventually got a tag title run and sustained push even as a comedy guy. I think Revival has a powerful fan in the back - perhaps the guy who runs NXT and has a long documented history of loving the late-80's NWA that Revival are patterned on. They do have to stick around for at least a couple of months before getting hurt if they want to go anywhere, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonzombie Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 So Cena vs Elias? Taker seems done as a worker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Yes but in his last match, they put it in black and white. He put over the new 'young' star for lack of a better term, cleanly, looked pensive, and then left his gear in the ring and got celebrated as he left. There was literally no better possible way he could have ever, ever left the business. Like Flair (should have) his send off was 100% ideal and to bring him back for a match would be a travesty (all joking aside). Thank You Taker should have been it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a big Undertaker fan and feel same. 'Taker vs. Cena needed to be done at WrestleMania sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I basically think whatever Taker wants to do is the right call. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is great because his whole family is in on it. I will admit I miss Senor Benjamin on my TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
