I really like undertaker style in the 00s.
He went from being just a dead giant to do a lot of moves, like suicide dive or old school, it's rare seeing wrestlers that big doing those moves.
And now compare it to beeg moves or kevin nash moves, they barely move.

He really stepped his game up that decade but all the time off caught up to him. Granted, they probably did the best they could slowly retiring him.

beeg can move if they allowed him to but vince was hell bent on all giant should be like andre type mentality.
nash is a shitter tho, no denying that
>>
>>14589405
>or old school
he'd been doing old school since before he even became the undertaker ya mark

He wasn't in his 40s, retard.

Someone as big as Show doing flippy shit is just a disaster waiting to happen. Flippy shit is safe or safeish when flippy shitters do it because they only weigh 100 pounds. If Big Show did Frankensteiners, he'd fucking kill his opponents just from his weight.

Very strange that he sucked for like 90% of his career and then became a GOAT level performer for 8 years, then sucked again
>>
>>14589596
you dont need beeg to do flippy shit, just make him move a lot more, he can do the andre type of move when he cant move much more
>>
>>14589894
limited moveset due to his character and always had to face other midcard shitter or giants because vince always saw him as a seperate attraction besides the world championship scene, when he went against bret, austin, or hbk, they always had great matches together
>>
>>14589405
he always did old school, what the fuck are you talking about you fucking Zoomer

For me, it's Phenom Taker, who had the best version of his theme bar none that got completely Mandella Effect'd by WWE's retarded revisionist editing into that phantom of the opera shit. Him vs. Austin felt like the biggest match of that era, no contest.

He was great from the mid 90's to 2013. That's more than 50% of his career. Some of his early on matches were good too

The Takermeister always felt like he was on a league of his own. Say what you want about his gimmicks or his boomer mentality, but nobody loves the business more than him except maybe for Vince. And Vince was a retard who occasionally made bad decisions. Taker came in and immediately cemented himself as one of the faces of WWE and always managed to stand out amongst the hundreds of wrestlers that have come and gone despite how bland and dull his gimmicks were (except for Ministry Taker which was absolute dimes). Even now, he’s still under contract and making his podcasts where he constantly shills WWE, not just because he’s getting paid to do it, but because he marks over the product itself. It’s like he actually believes the things he’s paid to say. You can say what you want about the man, but nobody has poured more love into the business than Texas Red

Nah Take sucked from like 99-03
>>
BikerTakers actual matches were kinda shit, exception being the Vengeance triple threat. Deadman comeback also started off bad.

Once he ditched the pants and went to the singlet with tights he got real good
>>

>>14591646
Big Evil was good. The WM match vs Flair and especially the HiaC vs Lesnar come to mind
>>
>>14591646
Big Evil was goated, his feud with Brock was also amazing. Even ABA had a great match with Gaytch at Mania

This nigga was putting on classics

Not quite, it was built off of this one. He used it in '98, then in '99 he'd come out to his OG theme he had since 1990 and it would switch between different versions of the Ministry theme until he got the final one he'd keep for the rest of his run right up to when he had to take time off.
>>
Late 00s Taker was the best.
HGH is based.
>>
Taker had the kino run in the late 00s because WWE allowed him to roid and he found the right mix that allowed him to reach his physical peak nearly two decades after he should've been at it
Then his age and his general injury proneness that he always had caught up with him and he basically wrestled most matches injured and unfit because he got injured preparing for said matches
>>
>>14591574
nah it's a little heavier and has more strings/choir/whatever shit in the middle

https://youtu.be/bV_zajsC-uo?si=l7oGDtTzhID8PMUF

ministry theme is great too though. I have no idea why they brought back his shitty slow theme in 2004. People wanted Deadman taker back, but they were thinking of 98/99 Taker. Instead he came out as some weird half biker version with his old theme and his character was also a lot less interesting. Taker coming back 98 style to dominate Smackdown would have done a lot to save WWE in 2004 after Austin/rock/Goldberg/Hogan/Brock left. But the version he came back as was boring as hell and practically looked the same as biker taker. Only by like 2006 did he start getting his shit together, grew out his hair and got better ring gear
>>
>>14590314
rewatching that era, i was surprised how over taker was in 98. i dont get why they turned him into ministry.
>>
>>14592613
This is his perfect theme. It has the gongs at the start but it's also faster with guitar parts. WWE made so many dumb decisions after the attitude era. It's like they went backwards and forgot what made the attitude era great.
>>
>>14592082
Ladder match with Jeff was based too.
>>
>>14592625
They had no heels. Rock was getting too over and turned face after Backlash 99. HHH had only just turned heel at WM15 and they were still building him as part of the corporation/corporate ministry. There was nobody else. By the time Taker got injured in September 1999, HHH and Jarrett were basically the top two heels in the company lol. Even Vince McMahon was babyface. The main event would have been way more interesting if Taker stuck around and didn't get injured, but the Unholy Alliance stuff he was doing with Big Show was kind of boring anyway and biker taker freshened him up for a bit. There was nobody else who was a legit threat to Austin. Kane was too over as a face plus he was basically a midcarder already. I'm not surprised Russo was trying to get a feud with Austin and Jarrett going because the roster was really thin on actual heels. They even had to turn Mr Ass heel just so Rock had someone to wrestle

guys how long until we can post weekend taker

Bikertaker is the goat for me. Everything was so much shorter and more effective than Deadman and Phenom, from his promos to his entrance to his matches.

The promo that he bitched about Jericho for interrupting when he first came to the fed is probably one of the worst I have heard ever, literally aew tier.

Bikertaker just looking like a dude at a bar who would kick ass for fun was so simple but so different so everyone else on the roster at the time that it was just perfect imo

I’m sure a percentage of it is unironic contrarianism. This is 4chan after all. But the majority of people at the very least respect Undertaker for the hours he’s put in. Most of the jokes posted here are just that, jokes. Because, I mean, The Undertaker is ridiculous no matter who you ask
>>
>>14600972
Jokes aside, I have no idea who coined “ugly ass motherfucker bitch nigger”. It sounds like too specific of an insult to come from /asp/. Like maybe some kid called him that and /asp/ just ran with it

Ol’ Take will post it again next Friday, don’t you worry.
Till then kick back and relax with some Jack; it’s Saturday after all.
And another thing kid - Ol’ Take appreciates all the love. You guys are most Badd Ass fans there ever were.
Taker fans, mmmm wouldn’t wanna mess with them.

>>14604753
it's literally just an /asp/ meme, nobody ever actually hated taker, it was funny shitposting, but newfags arrived thinking the taker hate was unironic, so now they join in on it as an attempt to fit in
>>
>>14605012
people started calling him undercarder and making fun of him on /asp/ just because it was funny. but the newfags got worked by it, so occasionally you will encounter someone unironically seething about taker on here, because they had their opinion influenced by the undercarder shitposting and thought it was serious
