20 WWE Rumours About The Undertaker That Proved To Be Bulls**t

19. He Died And Was Replaced In 1995

Following an orbital bone smash, which required facial reconstruction, The Undertaker disappeared and came back looking like a very different man in 1995. Basically, Mabel had smashed his face up, and Taker unsurprisingly looked changed after that. The young naive audience of the cartoon era couldn't understand that Taker would be gone so long and then come back looking different. Instead, a rumour spread that The Undertaker had died, and the WWF had simply replaced him with a similair looking wrestler. Maybe it was the ignorance of youth, or maybe it was lingering memories of the SummerSlam 1994 angle with a fake Undertaker, but a generation of kids really did believe that the man playing The Undertaker changed after 1995.
