The Undertaker as The Dead Man!  When we seeded all 68 wrestling entrances for this tournament a few weeks ago, The Undertaker as The Dead Man was a #1 seed.  The Undertaker as Biker Taker was a #4 seed and also made it to the final four.  I thought there was a decent chance we would have an Undertaker vs. Undertaker championship match-up.  But instead it was another #1 seed in Stone Cold who faced, and ultimately lost to, The Dead Man.  And it’s very difficult to argue with the results, because his entrance is without a doubt, legendary.

And speaking of The Undertaker, how about that match last night at Wrestlemania?  I honestly don’t know what to think of it.  With the entire event held without fans due to the virus pandemic, I really think that WWE did about as good as they could do with the match.  The entire night was just strange to me without fans.  The in-ring matches felt like we were watching rehearsals and it was impossible to believe it was the biggest wrestling event of the year.

But the Undertaker-AJ Styles match was not held in a ring, and instead held in a graveyard as a Boneyard match.  The entire match felt like watching a movie.  The back-and-forth dialogue between the two wrestlers was very strange, especially from the Undertaker.  And you can make the argument that some of the theatrics throughout the match were cheesy.  But taking all of that into consideration, as well as the no-fans thing, I think the match was a success.  Having it in the graveyard was a way better idea than having the Undertaker fight in the ring with no fans around.  One thing is for sure though, that was a match that people will remember for a long time.
