Punkertaker

By Scott Keith on 9 September 2018


I recently rewatched WM29, and during the Punk/'Taker match the announcers repeatedly refer to Undertaker as "the most accomplished striker in WWE history."

When did that become a thing? If my memory serves me right, for most of his career 'Taker was a slow moving no-selling zombie. He was a biker for a few years, and then all of a sudden he's a zombie again. Then out of nowhere he's an accomplished MMA zombie striker.

Also, how different would the current wrestling landscape be if they had just let Punk win?
I feel like Punk would have ended up being miserable no matter how things had turned out.
