My momory isn't as good as it was at the time, i forgot that taker had his 96-98 look at the beginning of the Ministry gimmick as evidenced by this video ...i was wondering if anyone could tell me the dat he changed his look this the style below BTW, the video is worth a watch just to hear JR call Paul a 'rotund demon'

after he was buried alive at rock bottom he didn't appear again until 1999 when he started recruiting the ministry. it was around this time he started growing out his facial hair but he didn't really wrestle much at all. at first he continued to use his old attire but around march he changed over to the weirder clothes

I wonder how Kane was able to fix his throat so he can speak w/out the voicebox he used. Hmm, medicine has come along way!

how did he debut it if he was never in a match at the rumble he and the ministry came out and abducted mabel, and turned him into viscera the next night. i wouldn't say that that was really the debut of the "ministry look" though. the beard and the robe were there though, i believe.

And how did the Acolytes come about? If I recall they were looking for guidance and were briefly managed by Cyrus the Virus who I THINK was still called the Jackal at that time. When he parted ways with WWF, the Acolytes then went under the leadership of the Undertaker. I believe there was a Vignette on RAW that showed how it came about but I can't remember exact details.

yes for weeks near the end of 1998 the acolytes would come out and destroy whoever was in the ring and then the jackyl would come out smiling and led them to the back.
as far as i can remember/tell by looking at recaps, there was no explanation for the acolytes suddenly being aligned with taker unless it was on heat or something. they just started prepping dennis knight for this induction while refering to the taker only as "him" for about two weeks in little segments on RAW, before taker finally appeared on RAW to cut knight's wrists and make him drink it, and carve his symbol into his chest.
