The Undertaker reveals one of his worst decisions in WWE

The Undertaker has revealed one of his worst decisions in his WWE career. The Deadman had a legendary run in World Wrestling Entertainment for three decades and went through many transformations. Toward the end of the Attitude Era, he assumed a new American Bada** biker gimmick, moving away from his supernatural persona.

This gimmick gave The Undertaker a chance to experiment with his look and attire. While he got things right for the most part, there is one regret he has.

On his Six Feet Under podcast, The Phenom addresses his infamous attire from Survivor Series 2000. The event saw 'Taker wear snakeskin pants for his WWE Championship match against Kurt Angle.

"There was instant regret when I put them on, and then even more regret when I knew that I didn’t have a backup pair... I didn’t have my black regular pants [sic] that I normally would wear; I didn't have those. So, I was left with no other option other than to wear the snakeskin pants,” he said.

The Deadman mentioned that he thought that the pants would make him look cool, but that didn't turn out to be the case. He also recalled WWE’s seamstress, Terry Anderson, tried to talk him out of it.

"I am on board with everyone else that that was probably one of the worst wardrobe decisions that I ever made. They were horrible. They were horrid,” he added.

According to The Undertaker, his snakeskin pants took the attention away from what was a memorable match against Angle.

The Undertaker revealed his true feelings on the ending of his WrestleMania streak

On the same episode, The Undertaker talked about the ending of his WrestleMania streak at the hands of Brock Lesnar in 2014.

The Phenom said nobody wanted it to end before admitting that he had no choice other than to do what he was asked. The wrestling legend added that had he forced things, he and Lesnar could have ended up in a shoot fight.

WrestleMania 30 remains infamous for The Beast becoming the first star to beat The Deadman at The Show of Shows, ending the latter's streak at 21 wins.

About the author

Sherjeel Malik is a writer at Sportskeeda and covers pro wrestling. He was hooked on the product from the moment he saw The Hardy Boyz jumping off ladders during the Attitude Era. While he comes from an engineering background, Sherjeel’s love for pro wrestling and content writing led him to pursue a career in sports journalism. Before assuming his current role at Sportskeeda, Sherjeel worked at other reputable organizations for five years.

While writing articles, he ensures that he only relies on credible sources for information and covers relevant subjects that do not project an agenda against a particular person or association. WWE legend Paul Heyman once shared Sherjeel’s work on his social media handle.

Sherjeel’s earliest memory of pro wrestling is watching Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Undertaker square off for the WWE Title in the main event of a pay-per-view in 1998. His favorite wrestlers are Randy Orton and Jeff Hardy. While he admires Orton for his character work as a heel, he looks up to Jeff because of his unique wrestling style and risk-taking ability.

If he could go back to the Attitude Era, Sherjeel would like to manage Ken Shamrock and be his mouthpiece. He feels Shamrock’s promo skills prevented him from becoming a main event-level act in WWE. Hence, he would like to help the UFC Hall of Famer get over with fans.

When not writing about pro wrestling, he likes to read classics and fiction books.
