What would you guys say is Undertaker's best year in terms of overall performance? I remember listening to Prichard's 93-94 run for Taker and almost passed out in the middle of traffic with how boring it was.

Is there a definitive Undertaker year?

Edit - I'm a work, sorry, but how you compare the careers of Taker and Vader?
Undertaker was signficantly more successful than vader, made way more money, and was imo a much better worker, there isnt much of a comparison to me. His best years are from mania 20-26 when he first ditched biketiker and had classic mania matches as well as winning the title vs edge in their great feud, and two A+ matches vs hbk. If you want more specific, mania 24-26. He was still relatively agile for a big guy, had a better moveset than before (added hells gate submission, and last ride finisher), and his OPPONENTS were stepping up too.

10 for Taker. He has his flaws like every other wrestler but there is no denying his place as a legend as well as his standing in wrestling. He is wrestling and there aren't too many names people will bring up before his when you ask them to name wrestlers.

9.5
Mic work 9 short but effective
In ring skill . 9.5 for a big man best striker in WWE.
Best matches : HBK, Kurt Angle and Brock.
All time great and hall of famer.
The man put on classic matches for decades and with HBK help immortalized himself as big match man at mania.

nikkas really did an evaluation for nikkas like Buff Bagwell, Vader, and Scott Steiner before the Undertaker?
:scusthov:
Undertaker was still an active wrestler early in this series. Besides thread #50 is a special milestone so why not save it for a special legend like The Undertaker?
