When the Undertaker finally gets his HoF induction

[noleafclover1980]

I was just thinking about this, and the fact that Undertaker would be the most unique induction most likely. Generally when they induct a person, it's the man and his contributions, not the character. IE, when he was inducted.. it was Ted DiBiase as a hwole, for everything he has done.. not "The Million Dollar Man". With 'Taker, I feel like it will be the character. I just can't see them mentioning "Mean" Mark Callous at all, hell, even the BikerTaker. I don't even expect them to even say his real name during any of the hype, or the ceremony. Just the Undertaker, totally in character.

Well, it all depends on how they retire the character. If he vanishes in some sort of paranormal, black magic kind of way...I don't think they should just have him come back in character to accept his HOF induction.

[percymania]

I can buy that, but I don't think they'll completely ignore the Biker Taker days. How could they?

[Wade Renegade]

I think he'll tombstone every other inductee on the stage with him, tombstone all the past inductees and then even their families as well. Once thats done he'll take 12 months off for no apparent reason and then at the next year's HOF the lights will go out. When they come back on, he'll be stood on the stage ready to be inducted by Unified Heavyweight Champion Michelle McCool.

I'd like to see this Taker at HOF

Ok, that was pretty great.

[Bub (BLM)]

I'd wager that he'd just be himself at his induction. No one else has been in full-on gimmick during theirs.

I think he'll just be himself, anyone who doesn't realize he's not a zombie (ie kids), would be watching a Hall of Fame Ceremony. Though it would be cool if he was Biker Taker at the time so it would seem less surreal.

We can only hope!

Taker should just be Taker, fans love the guy. I personally hope we get a book or an out of character DVD by the E talking about his career at some point.

Just amazing to think about how long he's been around and that he can still put out some decent matches with good opponents.

[Oakster]

Pretty much do it like when he accepted his numerous Slammy Awards in 1997.

[Clash, Never a Meter Maid]

More than likely, he'll leave the mystical aspects at home during his induction.

The Undertaker character's been a bit more "humanized" the past couple of years in both his interviews and matches (nostalgic bits like the urn aside), and the Booger Red Taker's not that old, so Ithink he could afford to wear a suit and tie.

I know this was scripted and planned and everything... but it still takes a man with huge canteloupes to say, "I'm sorry, I thought I was fighting the gay undertaker from Six Feet Under and not the gay-Undertaker from WWE."

[Ryushinku]

Just be himself, I think. If ever there's a time for him to be able to drop the gimmick it should be that night. Then go and tear it up one last time at WrestleMania.

Funny video, Throwback!

[no2humanorchid]

I can hear the persons voice who inducts him now "you may know him as a zombie, The Deadman, The American Badass, Big Evil or The Phenom, but to everyone regardless, he is simply known.............as The Undertaker"...............enter the intro video package on him.

I don't know how he will be inducted, in character or not, but I do think his last induction speech words will be along the lines of "I guarantee you one thing, that the legend of The Undertaker, will never, Rest.............In..................Peaceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee"

[Zen411]

I think they should induct a whole bunch of Undertakers in different looks through the years. The inductors? A whole bunch of Paul Bearers and Kanes. This is a totally awesome idea. If you don't like it, I will try again next year.

If Steve Austin will put on a suit and tie for his induction so will Undertaker.

[flatsdomino]

He should just be Mark Calloway, when suddenly during his speech the lights go out and another Undertaker (Purple Gloves old school look) appears with Paul Bearer, followed by the lights going out again and ANOTHER Undertaker (ministry look) appearing with ANOTHER Paul Bearer, leading to confusion as a whole bunch of Undertakers from throughout his career, each with a Paul Bearer, appear and beat down Mark Calloway, culminating in a never-before seen seven man chokeslam. Finally, they jump in the air and high-five to close the ceremony.
