https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeJF8wV1ZK0 Paul Bearer was always shown to have control over Undertaker by being holder of the urn. What exactly was in the urn and why it would have control over Taker was always up for debate but whatever the reason, it not only held power over the Dead Man but also seemingly supplied him his otherworldly power as well. This concept, of course, is silly enough as it is but somehow he and Bearer made it work. Every monster has a weakness and for Taker, it was the urn. The real problem was whatever suspension of disbelief or goodwill they had built up over the years instantly vanished anytime the urn was opened. Before Undertaker faced the Underfaker Paul Bearer opened up a casket that held a new urn, this time a comically large version. He began to tease the unthinkable...he was about to open it! What carnage would Bearer release when he opened this mystical canister? Would he release the very spirits of the souls the Taker had claimed over the years? Would the screams of the dead be heard emanating from the over-sized vase? Not quite. As Bearer removed the lid it was revealed that the contents of the urn were...a giant beam of light. That's right, the urn was just a big flashlight. Great if the power went out and you're out of candles but just plain disappointing and embarrassing if you're Undertaker. The real Undertaker was guided out to face his doppelganger with the high beam like a dog following a laser pointer and the moment, like the match to follow, was a complete joke.
