10 Rare Times The Undertaker Broke Character In WWE
10. Unforgiven 2001
For the first four years of the century, 'Taker was a lot more expressive than he had been in his career prior to that. That was, of course, down to the biker persona he had adopted that was much more in-line with his real-life personality. That being said, he still knew how to perform, act, and sell in Undertaker mode, coming across like a take-no-prisoners monster in the ring.
One moment that he really struggled to keep up appearances, however, came at Unforgiven 2001 when he and Kane defended the WCW Tag Team Titles against KroniK. The two teams did not work well together and it quickly began to show as a there were a number of mistimings throughout and Clark and Adams missed their cues on more than one occasion.
'Taker was growing visibly frustrated as he essentially had to call the second half of the match, telling his opponents where to be on multiple occasions. Following a botched neckbreaker, you can see him throw his head into the canvas in frustration and audibly swear (though the sound has now been edited out on the WWE Network version).
After their victory, the Brothers of Destruction had a somewhat subdued in-ring celebration because you could clearly see that 'Taker wasn't pleased with that match. And considering KroniK was dispatched from the company soon afterwards, it's safe to say that was indeed the case.
