As evidenced by his p*ss-weak WrestleMania encounters with Bray Wyatt, Shane McMahon and Roman Reigns, The Undertaker had little left to give to the organisation grown partially on the back of his incredible legacy.

Crocking him with a legitimate concussion en route to ending his fabled undefeated streak at WrestleMania 30, it was as though Brock Lesnar really had humanised 'The Deadman' when a third F5 left him flat on the mat in New Orleans.

Repeated uses of an almighty hoof to the balls only furthered the impression, as Undertaker embraced a decidedly heelish veneer in his 2015 return clashes with 'The Beast'. Attempting to tell a tale of an overmatched veteran and an indifferent destroyer (because that's exactly what it was), the story stumbled out of the blocks thanks to a hokey finish in their SummerSlam 2015 topliner.

Hell In A Cell would bring their rivalry and 'Taker's relevance full circle. Tearing away strips of the canvas as if to imply that even the 'Devil's Playground' was still too gentle on their fierce hatred, the pair energetically fought to a finish that offered little doubt as to who the company's conqueror was going into the second half of the decade.

Undertaker nobly survived a host of suplexes, but fell victim to his own tactic in the closing stages. Brock gave the aged star an almighty low blow, before hitting his F5 on the boards the pair had previously exposed.
