Ok, I think Undertaker is a legend, that goes without saying, but his kayfabe level I think is a bit much. If he had stayed the deadman the whole time he had been in WWE it would be one thing, but with the whole biker gimmick era, I think at that point the mystique of the Undertaker died, pardon the pun. I was watching a clip on youtube last night of The Undertaker on The Jimmy Kimmel show doing a pillow fight which I had never seen before. I just think it's kind of odd that he can't show up in the audience at the Hall of Fame because it would break kayfabe with his charechter and won't come out to congratulate Flair on his retirement until after the cameras stop.. I don't know, how do you guys and girls feel? Like I said, if he had been the deadman gimmick the whole time I think I would completely understand his reasoning, but to flip it on and off just seems a bit much.

I read The title as Undertaker and the Kayfabes. Like it was some kind of 5o's doo-wop group. Now I really want that.

Maybe he feels that off WWE TV is one thing, but on WWE TV he wants to keep the persona alive. I can kinda understand that.

I think he kinda has a sweet deal going on. No media tours, doesn't have to go to all these events, isn't forced to get a Twitter account... Then you have the mystique of Taker that needs to remain intact. His returns wouldn't have much impact if he was out doing interviews all the time. I completely understand why he keeps up the kayfabe.
