10 Best Ever WWE WrestleMania Entrances

5. The Undertaker (WrestleMania 29)

Unknowingly entering for the last successful defence of his legendary WrestleMania undefeated streak, The Undertaker brushed aside the ghosts of his victims past in the most visually stunning of all his 'Show Of Shows' spectacles.

Opponent CM Punk had professed to having no fear of 'The Deadman' in the build-up, abusing the memory of the recently departed (for real, this time) Paul Bearer to get under the skin of the legendary 'Phenom', but 'Taker's telling stroll through the dismembered limbs that lifelessly lunged at his domineering form reflected his innate ability to switch off normal human emotion on 'The Grandest Stage'.

'The Straight Edge Superstar' had assumed that he could outstrip the physical presence of The Undertaker by locating an emotional fragility. Made to bear witness to the outcome of his pernicious ploy, he instead triggered a force that - more than ever before - was completely without feeling.
