WWE No Mercy 2001: 5 Awesome Things And 5 That Sucked

2. The Undertaker's Match With Booker T Was Boring

The Undertaker and Booker T are both very good performers capable of having great matches, but they just didn't click here. It's a match that went about 15 minutes and it just dragged on. If it ended in 8-10 minutes then it would have been better. For the finish, they didn't do anything creative at all. It was the same finish they did a bunch of times during that era when Undertaker was doing the Last Ride Powerbomb. Booker was pounding away in the corner, Undertaker grabbed him, set him up and gave him the Last Ride out of the corner for the win. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIzEQLUonMw Since the crowd reaction was only mild for this match and Undertaker wasn't really clicking as a babyface, he turned heel soon after. It happened about a month after this when he forced Jim Ross to kiss the ass of Vince McMahon. That was the right move for him at the time. He became a nasty, bad ass heel soon after that while Booker found more success as a face.
