World Wrestling Entertainment announced today that the role of The Undertaker, a popular recurring character at the company’s annual WrestleMania pay-per-view, will be played at the April event by versatile wrestler Hunico.

In a brief press release issued by WWE’s Stamford headquarters this morning, the company announced that “fans can expect the same level of excitement as from The Undertaker as always, regardless of the minor casting change.”

The Undertaker, who is a staple of the company’s flagship event thanks to his impressive two-decade winning “streak,” has traditionally been played by 48-year-old Mark Calaway.

However, due to Calaway’s advancing age and nagging injuries, the decision was made this week to replace him at the upcoming WrestleMania event with Hunico, who has most recently been appearing as the masked wrestler Sin Cara.

Hunico has reportedly been understudying Calaway for several months already, and can convincingly mimic The Undertaker’s trademark moves, such as raising his arms to brighten arena lighting, the tombstone piledriver, and the post-match genuflecting on one knee with an arm outstretched.

WWE is reportedly planning to book Mark Calaway as special guest referee for a Divas Musical Chairs match at WrestleMania.

This shit for the birds, why this nigga always posting these things?

Troll bitch.

I don't see the problem. There was already two different Undertakers  

Dead, you can stop posting these now, you know.

I like these articles. >_>

I get a kick out of them, they belong in the lounge though.

They're related to wrestling, though. The wrestling section isn't just for legit news, it's for anything related to wrestling. Opinions, articles, random shit like this.

Nothing wrong with these articles. They'd look kinda misplaced in the lounge.

Im not posting wrestling related stuff in the lounge. Also lol @ the ones who complain i post them. Go complain about the people who make threads and then only have the body of the title be  ""

I don't mind them, but at least cite them as satire or say they're from WrestleCrap.

I dont go to wrestlecrap, i go to Kayfabe News

Or mark them Kayfabe news, you know what I meant.

Or don't post them cos' they are never remotely funny?

I got a better one...dont click the thread and then complain afterwards?

I'm not gonna lie, this article had me up until the last sentence.
