[1997-08-29-WWF-Friday Night's Main Event] Interview: The Undertaker

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Undertaker explains that he left Shawn untouched for ten years because he wanted someone to be able to tell everyone the story of the Undertaker one day. Whaaa? He promises revenge. Undertaker is by no means a great talker and stumbles over some of his lines, but this was effective.

[Kevin Ridge]

Major head shake by me when Taker says he left Michaels untouched to be one to tell his story. Undertaker will face Triple H next week in an example of what will happen to Michaels too. They don't mention Michaels/Triple H are any type of team now but Taker seems to think taking things out on Hunter is something that will upset Shawn.

This started spotty with Takers logic but got better the longer it went and I like how they hype this as the first one on one match between the two.

Say what you want about unprotected head shots, but at least the WWF is pushing the hell out of the angle from Monday. I don't know what the hell the "story of the Undertaker" stuff is about either, and UT simply isn't cut out for long promos. Sort of like a certain individual being pushed today.

[Exposer]

I sort of understood the "story of the Undertaker" comment. One soul to be left unscathed to tell of the damage he's done. I don't know. He never explains why Shawn was the guy who was exempt from his wrath before. Otherwise, this is a solid promo. He says the blood he drew last week was basically Shawn signing his own death wish with Taker's blood. I liked that. Taker isn't a great promo by any means, but I still want to see Ground Zero out of this & that's what matters.
