5. The Undertaker Drones On About Riding Motorcycles

The Undertaker believed that fans would be gripped by a drawn out story about how he had taken The Big Show for a motorcycle ride in the desert. That's the only explanation as to why one of WWE's greatest ever creations warbled his way through one of the most uninspiring promos Raw has ever seen.

This was right before 'Taker took some time off from the company in late-1999 (only to ironically reappear as a bad-ass biker the following Summer). Maybe he was trying to pre-empt that gimmick change? Who knows, all fans could say for sure was that Undertaker was rambling away incoherently mid-ring whilst Paul Bearer and Big Show had to pretend they knew what was going on.

Nobody cared about The Undertaker's deadly motorbike desert trials for Show, least of all newcomer Chris Jericho. Indeed, Y2J brutally critiqued the segment by outright calling it one of the most boring things he'd ever seen and even called 'Taker the 'Personification Of Boring'. Too right, this sucked and played before a hushed, disinterested crowd.
