    Google tells me the Latin means “he emptied himself,” and it is a reference to the Bible, specifically Philippians 2:6-7.

      phillippians 2:6-7 in case anyone was curious…

      “who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.”

      interesting…

        That is, I believe, the origin of the popular “Christus Exinanivit Semetipsum”, though I am not, to be clear, implying any Christ-like qualities to the Dark Everett or Undertaker.

      It is typically put “Christus Exinanivit Semetipsum, if my schooling did me well (I hope!) I was making an existential play on words here more than giving any real hints…

    Whoa….does this mean that Undertaker is Squirt? Or a version of Squirt? That would be so crazy! Of course, it could also mean that Undertaker used to be DE, and became Undertaker when…another version of Undertaker gave him all the age? IDEK.

      Urkhut’s face is much more stern in that video than the smile I am wearing posting this. I am very pleased the ambiguities I had hoped to present are accounted for, though, as the video suggests, any confirmation or denial on my part would do a disservice to the narrative.

        That’s ok, I’ll giggle at your video and hunker down to wait and see. I love speculating. ^_^
