At this year's WrestleMania, an event took place that has been building for over 20 years, and when it finally happened, it stunned every wrestling fan around the world. The Undertaker lost at a Wrestlemania, capping his historic winning streak at 21 - 1. The Deadman has not been seen since, and for some, the shock is still there, as so many fans never thought that this would happen. But for many, this was inevitable, and one eventuality follows another... The Phenom has been beaten up more in the past few years than he has in his entire career, and has only been capable of one match a year for a while now. Everything that he had left was dedicated to defending The Streak. And now that it's over, you've got to think that the book will soon close on The Undertaker's career as well. But since last summer, another dark force has been gathering strength and momentum. Bray Wyatt debuted with his Family in July of last year, and he has swept through WWE unlike anything we've ever seen before and many see him as the new evil of the company. There have been attempts at demonic heels since The Undertaker, but none have ever been this convincing, or this successful. It's not unusual for fans to draw parallels between the stars of yesterday and today. John Cena is the modern day Hulk Hogan, CM Punk was an anti authority figure to rally behind like Stone Cold Steve Austin, so why not look at what links these two? Yes, alright, The Undertaker is legendary, but that wasn't always the case, he once had a fledgling career too. Here, we look at ten similarities between The Deadman and The Eater Of Worlds, and determine whether or not he is The Phenom's logical successor.
