Actions indeed spoke louder than words.

For weeks, The Undertaker was advertised to return on 2.21.11 episode of RAW as WWE. The return was built up for weeks and was highly anticipated. Even though WWE never actually confirmed that the videos playing weekly on TV were actually about Undertaker, they made it pretty clear with all of the symbolism and music utilized.

However, the return was abruptly interrupted by the return of Triple H. The Game gestured to challenge the Deadman for a match at WrestleMania 27. While 'Taker initially seemed to refuse, moments later he accepted the match by performing his signature throat-slitting gesture. The Game replied in kind by performing his signature DX-chop.

This confrontation is considered as one of the best of all time as neither Superstar had to utter a single word in the entire segment but completely connected with the audience through their sheer intensity. It set the tone for one of the biggest matches of 2011.
