The Undertaker is one of the biggest and most-loved stars in the history of WWF/WWE, and with good reason. Having played a major part in the company since 1990, 'Taker is an institution, and it's impossible to imagine him working under anyone other than Vince McMahon. Incredibly, wrestling fans nearly witnessed such a thing. In 1999, Undertaker had taken some time off to heal various injuries sustained over the years, and was looking to come back under somewhat of a radical new guise for his character. It's unknown whether or not it was McMahon or Undertaker who made the final call, but 'Taker was a different animal by the time he re-appeared at the Judgment Day show in May, 2000. Before that, Kevin Nash told during a recent interview that The Undertaker held talks with WCW about making the jump from the WWF. Clearly, all was not well between Mark Calaway (the man behind The Deadman gimmick) and McMahon, otherwise why would he be talking with the competition? Imagine Calaway had shown up in WCW in 1999, wrestling history could have been so different to what it is now. What other interesting facts and tidbits from WCW in 1999 are you aware of?
