It is getting a little old. I liked the "this is not over" video segments weeks ago, but the dramatic entrances and not much of anything else is getting tiresome. At least it only has to last a few days more. He still looks intimidating, though. :)

I don't know why WWE continues to use him. The guy's body is just battered beyond belief. He should retire now while he can still do it with dignity.

Starting to think it's a bit of a work. You make Taker seem dull get the what chance going and people start to doubt him. Saying things like he should hang it up etc. Then give him a huge match.

I mean we say Taker's beat up etc but look at flair look at hogan how old are they. Don't see Taker staying in it that long but they prove that age has little to do with it. He's had a year off he should be good to go and hopefully go awhile. I bet they'll make him seem beastly in this round.

There is no reason for Undertaker to go on after this. His battle scars are beginning to show and he lacks energy, and its clear that the older Taker gets, the less comfortable WWE are with having him fight anyone other than Triple H and Shawn (either they're worried about star power, or don't trust anyone that isn't a veteran to get Taker over).

I hold the opinion that Taker would not be going out on such a low note if we had been given some of the Taker Wrestlemania matches we actually wanted to see, fresh opponents like Punk, Barrett and Sheamus. Instead, we got 4 years of matches we've seen before.

I do think part of it is on purpose to make him look weak going into Mania. They did take him out on a stretcher last year for a reason. Expect him to look strong at Mania though.

He will be fine at Mania but this is the reason he has most of the year off, only see him going up to WM30 and then retire

He should retire now, hasn't he stated numerous times his body wasn't working like it used to. I'd rather him retire now, then watching him cripple himself in the ring later on.

Was that english?

Taker is doing what Taker does best and that's sell a feud working towards a match, and putting asses in seats every weak.
