Ranking every gimmick The Undertaker has had in WWE

#1 The Phenom

The final few years of his full-time career were excellent

So now, we come to the best version of The Undertaker. His return to the dark side. His entrance at WrestleMania 20 against Kane remains one of the most memorable in his illustrious career. It was iconic, coupled with all the things we love about The Deadman - darkness, druids, and most importantly, Paul Bearer.

The Demon of Death Valley was back in all of his magical glory, dawning a new era for himself. And while Undertaker was saddled with some lackluster opponents like Heidenreich and The Great Khali, he did get the chance to work with some of the very best in the business as the Deadman as well.

His matches against smaller Superstars were extremely compelling. Names like Randy Orton and Kurt Angle brought the best out of The Undertaker during the prime of the Ruthless Aggression Era, before he began going after championship gold once again.

Undertaker won three World Heavyweight Championships, having some more belters against Batista and Edge for the title. He also started having annual WrestleMania classics here, just before winding down on his full-time career. This was The Undertaker as his fully-formed self, the biggest icon in the industry, and the most feared man on the roster.

The Phenom was in the best shape of his career in the second half of the 2000s, with the perfect balance of in-ring excellence and sublime character work. He was just a wonderful worker during this period, capping it off and heading into part-time status with a pair of all-time classics against Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania. This was the very best of The Undertaker.
