10 Things You Learn From Watching 1991 On The WWE Network
6. Nobody Could Tell What Was To Come For The Undertaker
Even though ended by Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania XXX in 2014, The Undertaker's winning streak at the long-running event will never be matched. In fact, for the longest time fans could rely on an Undertaker bout to really get them hyped for 'Mania. Back in 1991, there was no indication of what was to come.
Appearing at his very first WrestleMania pay-per-view, The Undertaker faced 'Superfly' Jimmy Snuka on the under card. Sandwiched in between a Blindfold Match pitting Jake Roberts against Rick Martel and the Retirement Match between The Ultimate Warrior and Randy Savage, 'Taker's first match on his historic run was mildly received.
In less than 5 minutes, 'The Phenom' had hit Snuka with a Tombstone Piledriver and pinned him. Suddenly, Undertaker was 1-0 at WrestleMania, although it'd take years for his winning streak to be acknowledged on a yearly basis.
At this point in time, few could even tell that The Undertaker would be around long enough to win the WWF Heavyweight Title, let alone go on to have the single most impressive winning run in WrestleMania history.
