The Premise
The rumour mill popped out a nice little fact this week. Undertaker will return on the day of The Network release. The night after Elimination Chamber. This is due to his Wrestlemania match being a lock now. People have been speculating for months who Undertaker would fight and I believe it will be and should be Brock Lesnar. Lesnar is a beast and we all know that. The WWE have built him up to be this beast and it plays in his favour. We all know that Undertaker and Brock have history. We all know the great matches they had and we know at one point they had issues outside of the WWE. So I claim this year Taker should face Brock and then next year he should face Cena or Sting and then retire.
Undertaker has beaten them all. The best of the best but he has never beaten a legit monster.
So how would I book it
The Undertaker returns at RAW. He comes out to the usual smoke and lighting with his hood up. It becomes clear though that Undertaker is banged up and something isn't right. Taker gets into the ring and explains that he has beaten the best of the best and he has conquered all there is to do in WWE and now it is time for The Deadman to take his Last Ride of into the sunset. Undertaker tells everyone that he will induct Paul Bearer into the HOF ceremony and then he will leave the WWE for good. Just as the Undertaker goes to leave the ring Paul Heyman struts out on to the stage and tells Taker he hasn't conquered everything, that he hasn't beaten the best of the best and that the deadman has never tamed the beast. At this Paul Heyman will play a video showing how many times Brock beat Taker and how bloodied he left him. The video plays and we see Taker get aggravated. Out of know where Brock comes out and hits Taker with an F-5. Brock stands over the top of him screaming that he will always be better than him.
Friday night smackdown comes around and Brock and Heyman come out and discuss how they have desecrated Undertakers legacy and made sure that the fans know he will never get the better of the beast incarnate. The lights go out and the lightening strikes the ring posts and Brock doesn't flinch a muscle. He gets on the mic and says "Taker, your games don't scare me. Your "powers" are just cheap parlour tricks and I will never be intimidated by you." The show closes and we move on to Raw. On Raw we see clips throughout the night of what we think is taker walking around. Later on Brock comes to the ring mocking Undertaker as he is dressed like him and walking with a stick. Heyman comes out dressed as Paul Bearer again and goes on saying that Kane was always the better brother and look what he achieved. Paul and Lesnar begin to belittle Taker again and they continue to run down Taker even more by bringing out an old woman dressed up like Michelle McCool. Brock F-5s her after they make fun of her and tell Taker that he better stay home and look after his woman because he would only get hurt if he came back.
A week passes and we see Brock come to the ring but he is interrupted by Shawn Michaels who warns him not to piss the Deadman off. He's been there and done that and it didn't end well. Brock tells him he doesn't care what he thinks and that he is just jealous because he couldn't beat Taker but he knows Brock can. Shawn tells Brock that he needs to learn respect and that if anyone can teach him its gonna be Taker. Smackdown comes around again and this time we see a video taken where Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar go to Undertakers house while he is out and threaten Michelle McCool. "If Taker isn't at Raw next week, we come back and we burn the house to the ground with you in it." Brock and Heyman leave and we see Brock pouring petrol on Takers bikes. He sets them a light and Paul Heyman begins to pose like Taker, down on one knee in front of them as they burn.
Raw comes around and we see Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman arrive at the arena and they come to the ring saying that Taker isn't half the man he used to be or he would have tried to attack Brock by now. Brock tells everyone that Taker is afraid and that he is pretty sure "michelle" pissed her pants when he was in her face because she had never met a real man. This goes on for five minutes or so and eventually Brock tells everyone that Taker has had his last days in WWE and enough is enough. Brock gives an open challenge one last time. "Taker. You. Me. Mania. You have six days to answer the challenge or I'll be seeing Michelle....." Before Brock finishes the gong hits and the lights go out. The arena hears a bike rev. It gets louder and louder until Taker eventually enters the arena. Chain wrapped round his chest. Taker gets on the mic at the top of the ramp. "Brock, since day one you have been nothing but a jock. Nothing but a cry baby and now its time you learnt why they tell you to respect your peers and it made me see. It made me see I can't leave. I can't quit. Not while assholes like you think you can do whatever you want. So at Wrestlemania its not gonna be any match. Its gonna be a fight. Its going to be a full on war. I accept your challenge but we do it my rules. Last Man Standing. If you win I leave forever. And let it be known Deadman Inc is back in business" Brock accepts and runs up the ramp at Taker. Taker gets off the bike and wraps the chain round his fist and levels Brock and they begin to brawl as the show closes.
Taker gives his HOF induction speech for Paul Bearer and they show a video highlighting his career. The video finishes but the screen doesn't turn off. The black screen pans to Brock standing with Michelle McCool out in the parking lot. Brock grabs her and "snaps" her arm. She falls to the floor and he gets down next to her and tells Taker he made a mistake hitting him with the chain because he awakened a part of him he hadn't seen in so long.
So there you have it. That is how I would ideally book this years Taker appearance. Its different but sticks to the new realistic wwe feel. I realise they would never use the HOF ceremony to tell a story but I feel it could work. Its just opinion.
So what do you think? Let me know on twitter at - @levellerlow
