Smackdown dark match was...

The Undertaker v Dean Ambrose

ermahgerd!!!

A few sites are suggesting that it may actually be added to SD although seems unlikely unless they cut off with shield attacking taker as HHH/NAO saved him

I've just seen a pic of it and there's several cameras at ringside filming it.

ERMAHGERD!!!!

Undertaker beat Dean Ambrose by submission with the gogoplata in the main event. After the match Reigns and Rollins stormed the ring and beat down Taker. He tried to fight back with a chair but Reigns speared him through the barricade. Then they did a triple powerbomb through the table.

There were very long closing shots of The Shield standing tall and Taker destroyed. I assume that's the ending of the televised show, it felt like it.

A minute or so later, the Outlaws music hit and they came out. Then HHH. DX disposed of The Shield and Ambrose ate a Fameasser and a Pedigree.

Is anyone now willing to accept Undertaker is not the half-dead mangled corpse he's made out to be, the guys wrestled 3 matches in as many weeks and looked athletic while doing so.

It's all because people don't like that he wrestles once a year even when his last 5 have been the highlight of their respective Wrestlemania's

I think it shows how well thought of Ambrose is to give him a one on one with Taker.

The last 4 guys The Undertaker has faced – Shawn Michaels, Triple H, CM Punk and Dean Ambrose. Hold that thought Hero, hold that thought.

Fair play to Taker for stepping up in the hour of need when star power is missing. Taking a spear through the barricade and a powerbomb through the table too. If he’s in half decent condition I’d like to see him work more dates throughout the year. Clearly he isn’t going to lose at Wrestlemania but it would do him no harm by putting someone over at Summerslam or Survivor Series. Would love to see Punk return and challenge Taker to a match at Summerslam and beat him.

This could very well be a sign that Undertaker is preparing to hang up his boots though, working more dates could be his last hurrah.

Over the past few years I've grown tired of Taker in regards to no-one ever really getting a rub off him but kudos to him on this, to have his first singles match in donkeys v Dean Ambrose is a real pat on the back that WWE have high hopes for him.

If the shield get their hands on a title would be nice if they brought back the ruling where any of them could defend it was always fun that.

If time comes to split them give them a major title and have them turn on each other

No Heath Slater
No Emma
Sounds like a pile of pants. I'll give Raw and Smackdown a miss this week.

I wouldn't go as far as saying he looked "athletic". In some of the matches he looked quite lethargic and tired, and he hit a lot of the moves a lot more sloppier than he would have done a few years ago. He's probably been a bit better than most expected, but I don't think he's that great of a wrestler anymore. I think he's been carried a lot by other people in his matches.

This is coming from a fan of the Undertaker!

Crimey the Undertaker's streak is older than you!

I think he looks in great shape. Granted he won't be doing any top rope suicide dives anytime soon but he looks lean and sharp to me. He could give quite a bit of rub if he is available for more dates

And this is coming from a non-Undertaker fan!
