Jake 'The Snake' Roberts, Diesel, Kane, Edge, Shawn Michaels, CM Punk: the top performers of multiple generations all tried and failed to make 'The Deadman' rest in peace at WrestleMania.
This also included one of the most stacked factions in WWE history, too, with 'Taker ultimately besting not just the leader of the eventual squad known as Evolution, but all four members of the dominant faction over the years.
Triple H was defeated on three separate occasions, of course, failing to defeat this game at 'Mania X-Seven, XXVII, and XXVIII.
Ric Flair was unable to keep 'The Phenom' down at the eighteenth 'Showcase of the Immortals'.

Batista was then the final name from that unit added to 'Taker's impressive list after losing his World Heavyweight Championship to 'The Demon of Death Valley' two years later.
