WWE History Vol. 11: The many deaths of The Undertaker

The Undertaker at two stages of his career, the new generation era and the Attitude Era.

#11 The Return of 'Classic' Undertaker.

Undertaker pinning Kane at Wrestlemania 20

The Undertaker disappeared for months after losing the Buried Alive match. His brother Kane came out on RAW and delivered a chilling eulogy, promising fans that Taker was gone forever and that he was now the 'Devil's favorite demon.'

This was all just to build up The Undertaker's return to his original dead man gimmick. Kane began to be haunted by his brother's presence. When he tried his fire pyros at the end of a match on RAW, the fire didn't come. Instead the blue lightning associated with The Undertaker went off.

At Wrestlemania XX, The Undertaker made his entrance to his original theme music, in attire evocative of his original character. As an added bonus, fans were treated to the return of Paul Bearer, who hadn't been on WWE television in years.

The Original Undertaker was back, and he was there to stay.
