Who else found the graphics in Taker's promo funny, and liked the fact that he seems to care about destroying Kofi, Miz and Morrison, Priceless and Santino?

"May all these jobbers feel my goozle and gogoplata and rest...in...peace."
Seriously, the WWE is making me apathetic towards Undertaker. Undertaker! Not Big Show, not Carlito, but the smurfing UNDERTAKER! This man has been reinvented how many times since 1990? And I finally couldn't care less about him other than the three minutes of entrance, which remains cool. I'm sad.

About time someone else doesn't care for him. I can't stand the bastard.

If they'd brought in Paul Bearer to do a promo like they did for...the 92 Rumble, I think, I would have marked harder. "29 men, 29 hearses, 29 CASKETS!"

I think you can also tell they have nothing for him, this time was meant to be taken up by the Hade Vansen angle.

Just give him Shelton. Turn Shelton into a main eventer, or make the US Title mean something.
Tazz: Why does the Undertaker want the US Title?
JR: Tazz, it's something' called respect. He's seen Shelton defend against Hurricane Helms, R-Truth, and MVP. He's seen that Title get left off out pay per views. He's seen that belt, that symbol of greatness, held by such men as Harley Race, Terry Funk, Ric Flair, Ricky Steamboat, Roddy Piper, Wahoo McDaniel, Magnum TA, Tully Blanchard, Dusty Rhodes, the late Rick Rude, Steve Austin, Lance Storm, John Cena and Matt Hardy.
Tazz: So he thinks that Shelton's degrading that championship by being the champion?!
JR: Tazz, you know even better than I do how champions, how legends, how the future guaranteed Hall-of-Famers feel about this business. I know how you'd feel if you felt the ECW Champion wasn't carrying his championship with pride. Now put yourself in Undertaker's shoes.
Tazz: Undertaker truly is a phenom. And Taker feels that he can only do sports entertainment justice, do the WWE justice, and do the US Championship justice by winning it or making Shelton Benjamin earn it.

My fury will be focused entirely on Santino, and he will rest in Peace.

Even more surprised that Shelton wasn't in the graphic, considering they had a pretty competitive match only a week ago. Yet they thought it necessary to put Santino and Priceless in there.

Did anyone else momentarily snicker when Kane appeared on the screen as part of the "mortal men" entourage? Even Kane's brother forgets that he has Taker Powers™! Then again, saying "28 mortal men and my...brother who isn't my brother but we're related, honest!" would have ruined it, so...

it made him look like a right prick. he basically said "there's no one who can beat me, and i'm gonna kill them as well", which is, minus the killing part, exactly what he beat up shelton for saying a few weeks back. so not noly is taker a killer, he's a hypocrit who thinks that the biggest battle royal in the WWE is something he's guaranteed to win.
seriously, taker's character is such a twat. just once i want an opponent to call him out on all of his hypocritical bollocks.

I think this is an example of what Bobby Heenan calls the ol' Wally Karbo direction: "Go out and talk, but don't say anything."
This was worthless. You couldn't have dragged out a Kizarny sketch instead?

It would have refreshed everyone's interest in Undertaker and it would have made Hade Vansen seem like a legitimate threat. Yet, they still keep Ricky friggin Ortiz.

And when was the last time he actually did the ringpost pyro explosion?

Yes, I like the whole idea of "Lose to the Undertaker and Go to Hell!." It's like when Masters of the Powerbomb offered Sting and Davey Boy nursing home tickets. Or how when Piccollo kills you in Dragon Ball Z, your soul goes to some limbo instead of the Afterlife. Or something.

Ooooh Oooh Is this 8th Annual whine and Moan about Vansen thread? Yeah, it seems some people are complaining about Vansen just to complain about Vansen, like the dude a couple posts up who didn't even know his name and called him Vade Hansen.
