New Undertaker Interview....

[realist]

This Undertaker interview came up on my feed.  He comes off as a great dude.  It is so surreal to see him talk about his love for his family and his relationship with God, given the Ministry era:

I see through Takers attempts to fool me with his faith, I know full well he still sacrifices Dennis Knight on a weekly basis in his basement.

Wtf Undertaker is a Christian?

My youth has been destroyed.

Literally disappearing like Marty McFly.

[Instant Classic]

Well Michelle McCool was always a believer. Makes sense.

Unlike me, Jesus wants Taker for a sunbeam.

Watch it come out soon that Aleister Black's actually a devout Catholic.

In all seriousness, as much as I don't want to see him anymore, nothing but respect for Taker. Probably a great guy to shoot the shit with on most things.

Alisters gimmick could be him being really good at guilt tripping people, and then he will talk about him having at least 5 kids. Oh and for some reason while everyone loses parts of names Alister can gain a middle name from this too!! *Catholic kid here btw*

Taker: "Have you considered accepting God into your life?"

Me: "Nah, I'm good, thanks."

Taker: *tapes fists*

I can believe Taker as religious. The stories have been out there that he absolutely HATED the Ministry era of his character

[The Thread Barbi]

More power to him but he seemed to express his love for his wife rather than God or Jesus.

True, though I think his issue was more that it was convoluting the character. Obviously didn't help matters that 1999 had him working hurt for much of it, plus I want to say that's around when he was going through his first divorce, I could be wrong on that. All added up to make for a shitty time, despite him probably making his best money to date at that time.

This is like when I found out Slayer was an act and that they are all actually Catholic.

I think we deeply underestimate the role faith has played and continues to play in pro wrestling - especially in North America. From our conception of the divide between face and heel, to the development of characters (such as Ministry Undertaker - hell, the Undertaker through most of his run has been a trope steeped in the conflict between despair and hope), even to the booking.

Consider even the difference in how wrestling is booked between, say, North America and Japan. Japan's conception of good and evil has to do with concepts of honour and respect, and even then in-ring the pops will go back and forth because the moves are so close to the fans' own experiences. In North America, the divide is as much about the contrast in character virtues and touch on concepts like vengeance, empathy, redemption (most recently with Seth Rollins), judgment, shame, etc. Mexico and Puerto Rico are more analogous to North America because the cultures there are more deeply entrenched in Catholicism which can touch on all those themes, plus certain aspects of ancient indigenous cultures. While one can point to these things as coming from anywhere in the Western canon, for much of the 20th century and for most North Americans the primary source for wrestling's psychological material has been the Bible.

I could well be talking out of my ass here, but I think it makes sense when you consider how big wrestling used to be in the South.

This match would need the PPV intro narrator guy from the New Generation Era.

” What would you do for love? For ages, it’s driven men to do many things. Some have achieved greatness. Some have summoned evil. All for the chance to capture the heart of another.

But what if that heart belonged to your Savior? This is a different love all together. It’s a love that can lift you up and provide meaning to your seemingly meaningless existence. But for the most wicked among us, that love does not come without a price. While most can give their heart to Jesus and be saved, these two men may have passed the point of saving. In achieving greatness in the World Wrestling Federation, these Superstars have perpetuated enough evil to where forgiveness isn’t a given.

Tonight...the Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels and the Phenomenal Undertaker will battle for the heart of their savior. And it can’t be captured by repentance or forgiveness. They must ascend above by scaling the 15 foot ladder and retrieving the heart of Christ themselves.

Tonight...one man will earn the warm embrace of his Lord knowing that he will someday approach the gates of Paradise hand in hand with his maker’s son.

And tonight...one man will be left empty and must face the fact that his fate has been sealed. He now must walk alone for the rest of eternity.

Each man will leave tonight walking a different direction. But first, they’ll walk IN. YOUR. HOUSE! “
