10 WWE Wrestlers Who Could Have (And Should Have) Wrestled The Undertaker At WrestleMania

The early '90s in WWE were a time of garish neon colors and outrageous cartoon characters. Of this cavalcade of bizarre gimmicks, one stood above the rest: Doink.

The concept was brilliant: everyone hates clowns and thinks they're creepy, so why not make a villainous clown who made children cry? It was a simple and effective heel gimmick, and Vince McMahon understood that... for about a year. Then he turned Doink face, gave him a midget sidekick, and the gimmick died a horrible death. But for that initial year, Matt Borne played the role to devious perfection.

Imagine if around, say, WrestleMania IX, instead of battling Giant González, The Undertaker faced off against something just as cartoonish, but more talented and bizarre. Here we have Doink, who is more colorful than 'Taker, but is the villain. It's your basic Batman/Joker dynamic, and given Matt Borne's in-ring ability, it almost certainly would have been a better match (although, given this is the González match we're talking about, that's an unbelievably low bar).
