'Insignificant' isn't a term your writer uses lightly - especially when we're talking about The Undertaker at WrestleMania - but if we had to pick 'Taker's most insignificant 'Mania match, it would have to be his Handicap clash against Big Show and A-Train at 2003's edition of the Showcase of Immortals.

It wasn't a terrible match but it was the only insignificant one on a near-perfect event and, sorry but, considering we're talking about a 13-year veteran here, that's just not good enough.

Yes, Big Evil deserved much better than the hand he was dealt at WrestleMania XIX and the strong card could certainly have benefited from his presence had he been used in other, more creative ways. How could that have been achieved? Well, by having him face off against recent rival Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship.

Lesnar had moved through every legend he faced - including 'Taker - before taking on Kurt Angle at that very 'Mania. While the absence of that classic match may have hurt the event, another epic clash between Undertaker and Brock in the vein of their Hell In A Cell match would have more than made up for it.
