When taker came back at WM XX he had both the characteristics of the biker and old school deadman look. If he was supposed to be buried for 5 months then why did he look like he spent 2 weeks in the caribbean? They should have made him look pale.
I do like the combinations of the dead man and underbiker though, I think that what the WWE is trying to do is make him come back with the clothes that he was "buried in"

I've seen the "he's returning in the clothes he was buried in" idea thrown out, and I think it's just silly if they actually did that.
The "deadman" Taker gimmick is so over-the-top that they NEEDED to go all out with it. If you're going to go through all of the effort of brining back Paul Bearer, and even the druids, you'd better send Taker out there with something more than just a new hat.

I agree with se7en. For Wrestlemania especially they should have done the entire gimmick. The current undertaker feels like a cowboy undertaker.
I don't hate it though he looks to be in good shape so maybe he'll be entertaining for a while.
He just Tombstoned Paul Heyman that was ok.

He looks like walker texas ranger or the bad guy in one of clint eastwood's westerns.

I actually thought he had a "Vampire Hunter D" thing going on at first....but I was really just being overly optimistic. They could have at least put the teardrop back on his face. the biggest change in 'Taker is that they let his hair grow back. (a little)

I want to like the return to the deadman character.
However, there is no way he should have been allowed to wear that bandana on Smackdown. Pick a gimmick buddy. You can have one or the other, but not both.

You have to admit he still has the best entrance in wrestling

I think he looks like Van Helsing. But I do agree, he should lose the bandana if he's going strictly Deadman.

I actually like this gimmick, they cant go back and make him what he used to be. A mix of the old and the new is good, he is probably the only person who's character has evolved so many times

Who can disagree there?
Last night when he came out, I felt like a was 7 years younger when I in the fifth grade, cause everytime he came out it was like the greatest thing I've ever seen. Last night I marked out alot, but then he took off the hat and revealed that damb bandana! Dammit! WHY CAN'T THEY HAVE HIM DO THE ENTIRE "DEADMAN" GIMMICK! Put the pale makeup back on him, give him the tear drop, and let him wear the old attire. That would have been well worth the WMXX ticket just to see him do the whole phenom entrance again, even if they would do it for one night. But alas, it's the WWE, and their creative team is conprised tie wearin monkeys armed with typewriters and white-out.

All I know is, I felt like I was back in Japan's arenas where everyone is quiet during a match until a good move is performed. The WMXX match with Kane and Undertaker was just too quiet to me, people seemed bored as if, "Oh yeah ok, your the Deadman again, big deal."

Does anyone else want to see a comeback of the Ministry? I'd like to. I'd give Undertaker a reason to be around besides no selling to everyone on the roster.

In a word? No.

I'd rather see Naked Mideon return before I see a Ministry reunion.
Burning teddy bears, a crucified Austin (The Passion of the Redneck?), the UnderChauffeur ("Where to, Stephanie?"), the Black Wedding, and Vince McMahon as the Higher Power... I'll pass, thanks.

exactly. I kinda marked out, saw the bandana, was puzzled, vomited on myself, then said "ohhhhh shit.", then was angry. Even if he just lost the bandana, i'd be 10 times happier
