I know this guy has plenty of fans, but I also know that I can't be alone in thinking that his act is beyond tired and stale. His win tonight basically wrecked the entire PPV for me. What will he gain from beating Punk? Nothing.
I'm just tired of his seven minute intros, forced fake voice promos, and endless stream of non-earned title matches.
*rant over*

Only CM Punk could make the internet turn on the friggin' Undertaker.

His entrances, mic work and all that are stale and passe, he still works really well in the ring, so I'll take the good with the bad.

I never thought I would ever say these words, but it's time for the Deadman to Rest In Peace. He doesn't need the World Title. He doesn't even need to wrestle. All he needs is to just show up and the place will go apeshit. Taker is too old, broken-down, and past it to warrant World Title victories over younger talent that could use the win much, much more. The HIAC PPV showed this. Punk lost to a barely-capable-of-walking Undertaker in 10 minutes in the OPENER! Once it gets to this point, it's time to let go before he starts doing some real damage. WM 26 HAS to be his LAST match. No other way around it.

It's time for a new Undertaker (dressed like old-school Taker with gray or purple gloves and boots) to appear, claim the Undertaker we've been watching ever since the old Taker v. Taker match isn't the real one, end the current Undertaker's career, and replace him.

The match did not make any sense at freakin all.
1. A World Heavyweight Championship match that goes 10:40 is BULLSHIT
2. A Hell in a Cell match that goes 10:40 is not acceptable
3. Undertaker winning the title in 10:40 seconds after all of this build up is completely retarded.
Did I mention that this match went 10:40 Minutes?
Undertaker sucks and finally everyone realizes it, the last time I cheered for Taker was as ABA.

He's not even fully fit. No idea why he was given the title.

I like Undertaker... but this latest run has been really, truly awful. I called this CM Punk feud sucking ass months ago, but I didn't expect that Undertaker would have lost as much of it as he has since returning.

Taker is one of my all time favorites.
He is in my top ten for sure and maybe even top 5. Yet, he is now suffering from old man syndrome. He just cant go like he used to.
I would much rather he hang it up after all he has given us, then continue to limp through another run. Wrestlemania 25 should have been the end.

I'm not saying that's legit, but it might have encouraged the booking decisions. As for Taker...I don't understand how people are saying he's all of a sudden terrible in the ring when people were praising him and Michaels at WrestleMania? As for his characterization, yeah, I'll concede. It's getting old. And stale. And redundant. A move to RAW could help..or a full-fledged out heel turn. Or just let the character evolve again into something different. |

I haven't really seen alot of his matches other than the Submission match with Punk..I don't see a startling change, but maybe I'm not looking that hard. If that's the case maybe he's just adjusting to it. If it was major, it's going to take a while to get his body back.
I'm not against Taker hanging it up soon, it really wouldn't distress me. But he is one of the most over-superstars, so I can see why WWE wouldn't want him to stop.

I was telling a friend recently that the Undertaker is just as bad as Triple H. In the sense that he'll occasionally put someone over, but it's always on his terms and he has to have the last word.
Tonight, helped prove that.

I can't stand it when he gets put over anyone in title matches. He, along with Cena, Michaels and HHH, belongs to a special group of wrestlers. If you, for whatever reason, dislike one of these guys, you're inmediately labeled as a smark and a mindless hater. That being said, I do like Taker. However he is clearly not fit to continue wrestling anymore. He's hurting the product and when he doesn't, he's hurting himself. Not saying he should retire if he doesn't want to, but maybe a long break is in order. |

Tonight, helped prove that. I think that's something that no one ever wants to accept. You hear all the time what a company man Taker is and all that, but there have been so many instances of him going over people who needed the win. He's in it for himself just like most everyone else in wrestling. It's just more irritating in his case because people try to pretend that he's selfless. |

I don't mind Taker as the Champion, but it shouldn't have been tonight. Punk could've held it longer. And it isn't just mindless PUSH PUNK TO THE MOON stuff, Taker's Title win would have meant more with a better chase and the whole thing could've meant more than it did. But he just came back, then bam, Title right away. Silly.
And it makes me mad that for whatever reason they don't let Michaels near the belt anymore. He deserves a reign more than Taker at this point and can put on much better matches, IMO, and he wrestles and works in a way that gets people over more than feuding with Taker does.

It's about advancing the "Vince is MAD at Teddy Long" storyline, and we're going to see Vince drop the hammer on Teddy for letting Punk lose the title, ultimately leading to Vickie getting her role as SD GM back, when this angle comes to a close. |

I'm a fan of Undertaker, but Taker doesn't need the belt right now. He getting too old and his injuries finally catching up to him. |
