Undertaker vs Giant Gonzalez (Wrestlemania 9)

Undertaker vs Giant Gonzalez (Wrestlemania 9)
Watch WWF Undertaker vs Giant Gonzalez - WWF Wrestlemania 9

Undertaker's match with Giant Gonzalez is often pointed to as one of WrestleMania's worst, but it's not quite as bad as folks make it out to be. It was certainly not a classic, but it told a good story and used Gonzalez's limited ability to its maximum potential.
The Deadman slid down to the ring accompanied by a vulture on a perch.
He soon stood in the ring, staring up at one of the few opponents who could tower over him. Ridiculous costume aside, Gonzalez's immensity and dominance through much of the match made him look a monster.
The action was strike-heavy and slow.
There is really not much else one can do with a man that size. The two made the best of their limited toolbox, telling the story of the force that was apparently strong enough to overcome Undertaker.
Gonzalez smothered him with a chloroform-soaked rag. That has to be against the rules, right? Taker had to be carried out on a stretcher. It then seemed that someone had finally toppled the titan that is Undertaker.
Wobbly-legged, The Deadman eventually tore back into the ring and pounded away on Gonzalez.
A disqualification win certainly isn't the most climactic way to end a WrestleMania match, but WWE seemingly wanted to have both giants look unbeatable after this was over.
