Outside of Goldberg last year and all of his matches from 2018, I never really hated any of Taker's matches. Genuinely loved the Brock series (outside of the concussion 'Mania match) as well. 2018 and 2019 outside of the Extreme Rules tag match though :bob:

I didn't like the majority of them from this past decade. He just looked, moved, and wrestled 10 steps behind. I didn't like any of his WM matches aside from the Punk one, too.

Used all his mana carrying CM punk to a decent match since Mister burned out was half adding it because it wasn't on last and wasn't making Undertaker money.

Honestly think the 2010 Kane feud was the lowest point of his career outside of the Goldberg match

Good match.....table spots and doing the same cut off spots that HBK and triple H did the four years previous.....yeah carried a guy who did the same things he was doing forever.

And taker was calling the match.

Taker was older in that match and banged up compared to the others. And heels call matches.

Vets call the matches first and foremost. They're the ones who know what their bodies can do.

And Taker practices the match weeks ahead.

Heels always call the matches in WWE. To have a broken down, barely able to move nearly 50 year old call the match would be hilarious. That match was 90% Punk. Taker looked worse than my dead grandfather out there, and he has every year since.

If heels always call the matches then why do I hear Cena calling out spots every match he's in bc he doesn't know how to use his quiet voice :lol

I guess the same reason he decided to squash the Nexus. He actually thinks he's smart. The reason the heels generally called matches is that every heel had different methods of getting their heat and they were the ones responsible for how the match would flow based on how they went about this. More heat, more fans and more money.
