5 WWE Superstars who returned with a completely different look

#1 The Undertaker

The Undertaker spent the entirety of his WWE career as a supernatural being, and it somehow worked with the WWE Universe even during the Attitude Era, which was all about realism and edginess. It all changed when The Undertaker made his return to WWE TV after a months-long break in 2000. At the Judgment Day 2000 pay-per-view, The Undertaker made his return during the main event Iron Man match pitting The Rock and Triple H against each other. The Undertaker rode a bike towards the ring as fans screamed with excitement.

The biker persona freshened up The Undertaker's WWE career

He was wearing a black jacket, and a bandana on his head. The Undertaker made quick work of the McMahon-Helmsley Faction, as fans cheered in unison. No one had expected The Phenom to don a look such as this, but it quickly became a hit with a lot of fans, with The Undertaker keeping it for around three years. He was buried alive at Survivor Series 2003, by Kane and Vince McMahon, following which he took another hiatus. The Undertaker brought back his old persona at WrestleMania 20, at Madison Square Garden.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
