This DVD is a re-release of the original mid-1990s video (yes, video), and was brought out once again to capitalise on the return of the original Undertaker character at WrestleMania XX. All five bouts on this one-hour feature were held in 1994, a year which saw the initial revamp of his persona upon his return from a long absence at SummerSlam, by which point the gimmick had already reached legendary status. His ring work, however, was still years away from truly impressing the WWF fan base. Hence, don't expect to see classic matches here.

From a storyline standpoint, the biggest match here is The Undertaker vs. The Undertaker from that same SummerSlam. The plot leading into this was pretty fun, at least by 1994 standards, but the match isn't exactly a five-star bout, although it's not as bad as some people say it is. Taker vs. Kwang is a rare DVD appearance for the masked warrior, who was played by the future Savio Vega.
