TBT: The Undertaker and The Ministry Era

[Vic Damone. Jr]

Time was full of acts.

Showed up and hit Austin with a shovel like it was nothing

Had Cokeboy following his Inferno Match with Kane

Kidnapped and almost married Stephanie
Performing voodoo on folks

Him and his goons catching Big Bossman slippin’ in the parking garage

Ran up on Cokeboy’s property like it was nothing Even had his symbol burning in his front yard.

Laughed in the police and Cokeboy’s face while being taken to jail

Ken Shamrock thinking he was safe ...... Taught Christian a lesson for fukkking up

Then the “Higher Power” build-up ..... The outcome

when he kidnapped stephanie

the best tele-novella angle in television history.
shyt had me tuning in every week.
nikkas was getting beat up and dragged into dark alleys and came back the following week like transformed zombie ministry members!!

Taker was fantastic from a character standpoint during this time. Just sucked that the higher power storyline resulted in Vince instead of someone else. But I could never really come up with a logical higher power person.

GOAT version of Taker

 

[Cartier Murphy]

Dope period in his career, too bad it was so brief. I think I read that he hated that incarnation of the character, but I thought it was a perfect fit for the era

Man, Undertaker had all the goth kids feeling themselves at that time. I remember I was in 9th grade and there was a fight between a goth kid & a regular ass kid. I swear to god, the goth kid whipped his hair back & had his eyes rolled to the back of his head like Undertaker. He then proceeded to say, I shyt you not - I remember this crystal clear, "you will feel my wrath!"

The other kid hit him with the and the gym teacher broke it up after a couple of punches were thrown by the goth kid

My favorite part from that whole era was when Taker and Paul Bearer kidnapped Austin from the hospital, took him in a hearse to a grave site and were ready to bury him alive and then Taker was like I got a better idea 'lets embalm him alive'.

So they loaded him back into the hearse and drive him to a funeral home...



LMAO, that shyt was hilarious, Paul Bearer was singing and shyt, Taker chanting some satanic type shyt. You gotta love it, LOL!


And this is still a classic image from that era

Just remember, it wasn't a cross, it was a symbol, dammit!!!

Aside from when he first debuted this was the most interesting takers ever been, they've tried to replicate the ministry over the years and failed (wack knock offs with james Mitchell)

From someone who has recently rewatched all of WWF in 99, that shyt has aged like milk

Crowd giving zero fukks about them or Taker in 99 unless Austin was involved. It was mostly terrible, don't let the nostalgia fool you

More problematic was that there wasn’t really a long term payoff. The whole stable just kinda fizzled out.
