6 Reasons The 'American Bad Ass' Undertaker Would Rock WWE

1. Would Totally Freshen Up The Undertaker

Overall, reverting to the 'American Bad Ass' persona would give The Undertaker a much-needed overhaul. Just as it did for the character in 2000, getting on the motorcycle and becoming a more realistic figure could help stir interest in him again. It's unfair to say that Undertaker will be overlooked if he doesn't become the kick-ass biker again, but it wouldn't hurt. Mark Calaway is entering the final stretch of his active in-ring career, that much seems obvious. Right before he rides off into the sunset for good, there's no reason not to try and shake things up again. The near 4-year stint as the 'American Bad Ass' is fondly remembered by most fans who lived through it, because it represented something radical for The Undertaker. In 2015, WWE could do with a injection such as this. The Undertaker will always be considered a legend, regardless of what path the character takes, but there's another chance to surprise fans. Post-'Streak', there's a general feeling that Undertaker isn't as important as he once was. Showing a different side of his skill set to a new generation could help change that.
