The Undertaker's 17 WWE Survivor Series Matches - From Worst To Best
12. Tag Team Elimination: The Dark Side - Fatu, Henry O. Godwinn, Savio Vega & The Undertaker Vs. The Royals - Hunter Hearst Helmsley, Isaac Yankem DDS, Jerry Lawler & King Mabel (1995)
This was The Undertaker's return to action after breaking his orbital bone a few months earlier. He had a mask that was similar to the Phantom of the Opera. At least it made him look cool. What a bizarre team this was. You've got the legendary Undertaker as a babyface leader of a team that had a big Samoan in Fatu, the hog farmer Henry O. Godwinn (HOG - get it?) and the energetic Puerto Rican Savio Vega. The heels side were called The Royals because it fit the gimmicks of that team (aside from evil dentist Isaac Yankem). It was a reflection of what things were like in WWE in 1995, which was arguably WWE's worst year ever for a lot of reasons. They just didn't have a lot of roster depth at the time and were losing a lot of money, too. The story of the match was the comeback of The Undertaker. He dominated everybody in the match and was responsible for the elimination of all four guys on the other team. Mabel ended up running away to avoid being pinned and continue their feud. If you're an Undertaker fan it's a great match to watch again just for the crowd reaction and the way in which he completely dominated the match.
