Don't forget about Fred Durst:

Don't forget about Fred Durst:

When Taker and Kane saved Lita, that was a top 10 entrance

I was hoping he'd pull a diversion in response to Bray Wyatt's mind games and come back as Big Evil for WrestleMania 31. Woulda made sense since the outdoor sky was gonna kill a Deadman entrance anyway.

That pop when the lower pitched gong, "Dead Man Walking", and KEEP ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN hit the speakers would've been

Limp Bizkit in 2015?

But I would of marked out.

One of the LAMEST gimmicks in wrestler. And what I call "the dark age of the Undertaker." I cant believe when I was younger I thought this gimmick was better than his dead man one! Cant believe some people wanted this gimmick back! This gimmick nearly ruined the Undertaker which is why the WWE hardly mentions it.

They don't reference much from 2001 in general tbh. Biker Taker, heel Austin/Power Trip, Invasion, etc.

Taker first showing up as the biker taker sucked, he was slow and fat. He didn't hit his stride untill he became "booger red" heeling it up and kicking ass
