Pictured above is a grumpy 'Deadman' watching his tedious WrestleMania 33 headliner vs. Roman Reigns. The legend was mortified when sitting down to take in the main event for his old WWE Network documentary series. 'Taker hit quite the beamer when revisiting some crummy spots.

WWE might not want you to forget the result (that Roman won), but they'd definitely want you to skim over 90% of the bout's content. The Undertaker is ashamed of his performance in Orlando, and he refuses to blame Reigns for what happened. That's classy, but the fact remains it takes two to tango.

Fans didn't really even want to see this match headline the show anyway. Roman was struggling badly as a "top babyface", and there was always gonna be way more love for 'Taker despite his physical shortcomings by that point in his career. So, come bell time, the whole thing felt underwhelming.

You won't see Reigns dropping 'Taker on a few Tombstone attempts again any time soon.
