5 Superstars whose WWE careers were 'buried alive' by the Undertaker

Mabel

Notice the mask on Taker’s face? That was all Mabel

Vince’s unhealthy obsession with size when determining which WWE Superstars to push saw a quite a few terrible workers get the nod ahead of more talented, smaller men. Ultimate Warrior, Kevin Nash, Lex Luger and even Hulk Hogan to be perfectly honest...were all beneficiaries of the boss’ inclination towards men who could fill out the screen rather than put on match worth watching.

Another Superstar who received the push for the same reason was the generously proportioned Mabel. He was booked to win the King of the Ring back when the tournament meant something, and subsequently placed in a feud against the Undertaker.

Unfortunately for Mabel, his size worked to his disadvantage when a leg drop on a downed Undertaker went horribly wrong and crushed the man’s orbital bone. Taker was put on the shelf for a couple of months and soon enough, Mabel was out of the WWE.

Not too hard to connect the dots.
