What Made The Undertaker’s Early Character Work?

Post by TigerTops »

The Undertaker's original character was unlike almost anything else in WWE at the time. Looking back, what made the character work so well? Was it the mysterious presentation, Paul Bearer, the entrance, the physical appearance, or simply how different he felt from everyone else?

The Undertaker’s early character worked because WWE kept the presentation simple and consistent. His entrance, funeral-style imagery, slow movements, deep voice, and emotionless expressions made him feel genuinely different. He also didn’t need to explain everything about the character, which gave fans room to build their own ideas about him.
