1. The Undertaker's WrestleMania Gauntlet

The Undertaker
WWE

This one is buried deep within the suburbs of r/SquaredCircle, and while it isn't as infamous as the Revenge of Kofi Kingston, it is as insane in its own literally impossible way.

A Reddit poster's friend insisted to them in 2016 - as in, believed it was such a great idea that they repeated it quite often - that the Undertaker should have wrestled a gauntlet match against every one of his former opponents, one by one, in his last match. Those who were unable to wrestle, or f*cking dead, would select a stand-in.

There's...more than one problem with that.

Let's assume that this person meant every one of 'Taker's WrestleMania opponents, because that is fractionally less impossible.

'Taker couldn't have worked Jimmy Snuka, who was a year away from death. Then again, WWE were dumb enough to book Superfly in 2009, so who knows. Jake Roberts wouldn't have been cleared. Who would he have picked in his place? Maybe a wrestler named Jake Roberts, did you know he was more over than Hulk Hogan in 1986?

Giant Gonzalez died in 2010. King Kong Bundy wasn't in great health. Kevin Nash would have done it for the money. Sid would have agreed, and then bailed. You couldn't keep Kane away from another match with the Undertaker. The Big Boss Man passed away in 2004. Triple H would have buried the locker room to put himself in the fray again. Ric Flair wouldn't have been allowed.

Who would he have picked as his stand-in?

Triple H, because he wants a job.
