10 WWE Stars Who Turned Into EVERYTHING They Hated

It was seriously depressing to see The Undertaker looking glum after stinking performances vs. everyone from Bill Goldberg to Roman Reigns. The Goldberg match, in particular, was a harrowing reminder of 'Taker's physical limitations. He'd pushed his body as far as it was willing to go.

Nobody enjoyed seeing him stink up the joint.

The Undertaker was always a loyal soldier to the WWF/WWE cause, and he was rightly proud of the way he tweaked that slow-moving original character to start becoming legit great in-ring. Bouts vs. Shawn Michaels will live forever, and so will matches against the likes of Bret Hart, Mick Foley and others.

Then, there's the latter portion of his iconic career. It's one Mark Calaway clearly hates looking back on. That final batch of matches broke his heart, and made him realise it was finally time to hang up the boots, trench coat, hat and eyeliner for good.

Remember Hulk Hogan struggling to jump for a 'Taker chokeslam? 'The Deadman' had become that.
