..on Thanksgiving Night, the world witnessed the Birth of The Undertaker at Survivor Series 1990!
edit: yeah, i know he TECHNICALLY debuted a few weeks earlier at some Superstars of Wrestling TV taping, but that wasn't aired til AFTER SS '90, so this was his first TV appearance to the world, and the first time most of the wrestling world saw the character/gimmick...

Undertaker's theme was way too scary for me back.

Probably my favorite WWF PPV of all time, one of the highlights on this show was the last appearance of Ax of Demolition.

The Undertaker is a gimmick that should have never worked, yet its been 22 years.

Greatest in ring Thespian ever.
The Greatest Master of Character Commitment.
Best pound for pound Superheavyweight in wrestling history.
A defining master of wrestling psychology.
A living, breathing, coherent embodiment & personification of the definition of the phrase "Guided Mastery."
The ultimate "Torch Passer". He put over Brock Lesnar, Randy Orton, Edge, CM Punk, Kane, Big Show, Batista & most of them got over simply because they held there own with him.
A consummate professional.
A truly irreplaceable, invaluable, enigmatic storyteller.
The face & soul of the "Passion Play" aspect of profession wrestling.
The representation of the entire "Entertainment" side of the art form.
While on the same note, among the most skilled workers that will ever exist.
A man with virtually no blemishes on his life outside the ring.
The beast in the bottom deck of the WWE Ship shoveling coal as he holds the Hull together from the bottom up until Austin managed to bring a new boat during the lean years.
As Arn Anderson said - "He represents everything that is good & wonderful about this business."
Thank Vince MchMahon. Thank Mr & Mrs. Callaway.
THANK GOD. For the Undertaker!!!!

I was just over a year old when he debuted (hard for me to fathom that), but I watched the SS 1990 video many times when I was a kid, so this definitely stands out as a memorable moment for me. |

You do often forget you've never heard of Taker using his power like HBK. Hes defiantly grateful to both McMahon and wrestling. |

Everyone has always said how much they loved working with him. He's a leader in the locker room and really good with the young guys. A consumate professional.

Hah, same here. It's kinda cool knowing you were born the same year as the character of the Undertaker started. |

The Undertaker is a gimmick that should have never worked, yet its been 22 years. Not sure how you can come up with a thought like that but I'll agree to disagree. He's one hell of a worker and sold his work very well. |

I never said he wasn't but really if someone told that a western themed undertaker was wrestling would you see lit lasting 22 years? I'm not necessarily quoting that fact that it lasted 22 years, I'm quoting the reference that you made that it should have never been successful which in that case I highly disagree with. You do have a point, I would have never expected his gimmick to last as long as it has however. |
