10 Wrestlers Who Deserve More Respect

2. The Undertaker

What People Say: His best days are very much behind him, he embarrassed himself at Super Show-Down against Goldberg and The Undertaker should stop putting WWE paydays ahead of his legacy. In fact, there's an argument to say his phenomenal reputation is on life support if he keeps pushing himself too far.

Why He Deserves Respect: The Undertaker didn't get this deep into his career by being a fool. His facial expression after that match with Goldberg in Saudi Arabia was one of annoyance, and he must've known the final five minutes sucked hard. He was visibly shaken by it all.

Then, like the legend he is, 'Taker pulled himself together and was the star of a tag match involving Roman Reigns, Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre at Extreme Rules.

The ageing icon could've been forgiven for melting away post-Saudi. Instead, he roared back in impressive fashion to give WWE's July pay-per-view one hell of an opener. This bodes well provided WWE don't over-extend the 54 year old by booking him in unrealistic, lengthy singles matches ever again.
