10 WWE Wrestlers and their weapons of choice

#6 The Undertaker and his urn

The Undertaker's urn was a vital part of his character for years

The Undertaker has been on the WWE landscape for so long that it can be easy to forget his campier elements from early on in his tenure. It was the more outlandish, supernatural elements of the early gimmick that in so many ways defined who he would become, though.

After all, elements like his slow march to the ring or signature Casket Match might seem out of place if introduced today but were natural extensions of his character as it was originally portrayed.

One piece of the Dead Man persona that stuck longer than others was The Urn. It was a fittingly morbid prop for Paul Bearer to carry to the ring for Undertaker matches, and moreover, a weapon that occasionally came into play to incapacitate someone.

The urn also took on more supernatural significance, as an implied source of power for The Phenom, particularly during his first face run. It would come back around as a deeply symbolic element in The Undertaker’s WrestleMania 29 feud with CM Punk, shortly after Paul Bearer had passed.
