I'm not surprised, it fits him and this whole "last outlaw" thing they have going on with him now too.

I wanted him to use it on Raw and was disappointed when the gong hit, so this is AWESOME.
Suits him perfectly.

This is probably to go with The Last Outlaw thing, I prefer the old Undertaker theme, but I also like Johnny Cash.
Funny story, they offered a indy worker with that name money for the rights to it. Instead he asked for a development contract which only cost the WWE a fraction of what they was offering him. Only for them to release him, haha!

It seems that they are pushing his whole "The Last Outlaw" gimmick a little more. Maybe to give him more dialogue throughout this Taker/HHH Wrestlemania feud. I first noticed that this past monday when they showed the ad for their match at Mania. Under Taker's name it said "The Last Outlaw." I am curious to see how it builds up the next few weeks...
Great song for him BTW.

It fits him really well, especially with how he delivered this promo. I like it.

Just watching the promo part! Wow! THIS IS AWESOME!
Undertaker is talking like a person again, great mic skills, becoming more human and real but still keeping the gimmick, I like this Undertaker.

I thought the Last Outlaw thing was dumb since it came out of nowhere. I liked it and thought it was cool, but it seemed to come out of left field. Now that they're building it, it is reaching its potential. I think this is exactly what Taker needs to seem fresh again.
I also really love Johnny Cash, so I'm pleased as punch. Song is really cool and fits well.

It only 'fits' because it mentions graves. It just doesn't suit him, so I don't like it. It isn't dark or dramatic or intimidating like his past themes.

They should also update his titantron seeing as they changed his minitron. Maybe I'm the only one who thinks this but maybe Ain't No Grave is just Undertaker's promo theme, like when Triple H for a while would use King of Kings when he cut a promo but would use The Game when he had a match. The song does suit Taker and his gimmick though.

I would think and hope this too as Taker does a lot of promos but like HBK and HHH and Hulk Hogan, Bret Hart, etc... he has had this theme for most of his career and it just signifies Undertaker. |

Has he forgotten he's already defeated HHH at Mania 10 years ago?

Yeah, Taker already defeated HHH at a Mania. I don't care, but WWE is just stupid, they could easily get around it by not mentioning things like "HHH like all that came before him will be defeated" When HHH came before this HHH and lost.
And by the way, i like the new Taker and theme. The old Taker and theme are epic but Taker was so stale it was good to see even a slight change in his character at all.

I really like The Last Outlaw, Undertaker. Great song choice, too. I just think they need to edit the song to make it sound more like a theme and maybe change the entrance video. It doesn't match the beat of the song. How awesome would it be if he came on horseback at WrestleMania?

I like it, but I don't see him using it past Wrestlemania

They definatly ned t ake a new 'tron, however I'm liking the "new" undertaker. Also I love me a bit of Johnny Cash, also hes still wearing pants bu i guess we will have to wait tillmania to find out if hes wrestling in that attire.
