Undertaker Bio

One of wrestlings most popular and fan favorite is the Undertaker. The Undertaker began his career in 1984 with World Class Championship Wrestling. In 1989 he joined WCW. He finally joined the WWF in 1990 as a member of 'Ted Dibiase's' million dollar team and was a heel the first couple of years. His character appeared as a mortician from the old western days who possessed some magical like powers. In 1992 when Jake "the Snake" Roberts lost to Randy "Macho Man" savage on Saturday Nights Main Event, Jake tried to attack Macho Mans manager Elizabeth with a steel chair. Undertaker did not let this happen and thus became a face. Undertaker was managed for many years by Paul Bearer until Paul betrayed him in 1996 in a match against Mankind. He feuded during his years with top wrestling superstars such as Stoned Cold, Hulk Hogan, Shawn Michael's and Kane, who would later be revealed as his story line brother. In 1999 Undertaker had a groin injury that put him out of action for about a year but when he returned in 2000 at Judgement day his character was changed to an intimidating tough biker type guy. In 2003 Undertaker lost a buried alive match and disappeared for a while, Kane claimed that Undertaker was gone forever. At Wrestlemania XX Undertaker returned, using the old school deadman persona again and defeated Kane. On Smackdown he then had some feuds with Randy Orton and JBL and Mr. Kennedy. On May 11th of Smackdown Undertaker was in a steel cage match with Batista which resulted in both men's feet landing outside of the ring at the same time, Mark Henry then came and assaulted Undertaker. Edge, who had the money in the bank ticket saw this as a good opportunity to challenge the champ for the title and went in and speared Undertaker, covered him and became the new World Heavyweight Champion. Undertaker has been gone since then. Mark Henry started taunting Undertaker about coming back to face him. In September of 2007 at 'Unforgiven' Undertaker returned and beat Mark Henry. On 12-14-07 at Armageddon Undertaker had a chance to regain his world heavyweight championship as he competed in a triple threat match against Batista and Edge. Edge, using many tricks in the match ended up taking the title and becoming the new champion. Batista lost his title and Undertaker lost this opportunity after Edge snuck over and was ringing the matches bells, thus fooling Undertaker about what was going on. Undertaker then started feuding with Big Daddy V and Mark Henry. At Wrestlemania XXIV the Undertaker once again captured the world heavyweight championship as he beat Edge and continued his perfect Wrestlemania streak which went to 16-0. On April 27, 2008 at Backlash Edge got his rematch opportunity but was unsuccessful as the Undertaker used his triangle chokehold to defend his title. On the May 2, 2008 edition of SMACKDOWN Vickie Guerrero announced that the Undertaker is being stripped of his World Heavyweight Title for using an illegal move on opponents. She said the triangle chokehold was not to be used again. She also said that he will have another opportunity at the title when he battles Edge at Judgment Day and if he loses, he will be banished from the WWE forever.. Undertaker ended up losing the match at Judgment day and Edge became the World Heavyweight Champion with lots of outside interference help from Ryder, Hawkins, Chavo Guerrero and Bam Neely. Since he lost, Undertaker has been banished from the WWE.
