WWE: 12 Criminal Gimmicks That Should Have Lead To Jail Time

10. 'Taker Tries To "Kill" Multiple People

Crime: Attempted murder. Numerous times. The Undertaker's gimmick is understandably marked by death. Back in 1998, The Undertaker finally caved in after Paul Bearer had flirted with exposing his deepest darkest secret for two years, and revealed that his origin story involved the fiery murder of his parents, and the disfigurement of his brother, who he had initially blamed for the fire. And even before then, before he even became the Undertaker, Mark Calaway debuted as The Master Of Pain, who had killed two men in a fight, so it's not at all surprising that the WWE went back to his murderous tendencies throughout his career at the top. The two most famous attempts came on Stone Cold, who almost got a Dexter-style knife in the heart, and Big Boss Man, who ended up on the end of a hangman's noose in 1999 in one of the most distasteful story moves in memory.
Punishment: Usually life imprisonment.
