As a true creature of the night, I wished I was a member as I proudly worshipped him like a a God. He's like the giant version of me as a badass ginger obsessed with death.🎸🎸🎸🤘🤘🤘🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲💀💀💀👻👻👻💫💫💫
I remember as a kid back in the mid 1990s when the Undertaker went one on one with Yokozuna in a buried alive match and he himself was thrown into the coffin. Just as Yokozuna and his aides were leaving the ring, it went dark and then a big screen showing the Undertaker speaking from inside his coffin appeared. That was an episode I still remembered to this day.
we should be lucky we got him for he was actually interested in playing basketball and was offered to play for a team in Europe but then wrestling caught his attention, went a few rounds in WCW in the late 80s and in 1990 when he was signed to WWF/E the deal was sealed
I've been a fan of the Undertaker since his debut at survivor series 1990. He has been such a big part of my childhood and teenage years that he inspired me to become a professional wrestler. My gimmick had elements of him and a few other people. As a kid I dressed up as him for Halloween. He was a constant for 30 years and even my kids liked him. Nobody else in pro wrestling made a impact like him, and nobody else has made people famous like him. Look at who was in the ministry of darkness that went on to become champions and hall of famers. People he feuded with as well. Nobody else will ever be like him and there will only ever be 1 undertaker.
I remember going to the WWF when I was 8 years old and genuinely feeling terrifying when Undertaker came out. I can still remember that feeling of fear I felt that night 25+ years later.
I was a literal little girl when I first watched WWE and saw Undertaker. I was not as interested in the fights of wrestling but the stories really fascinated me, particularly Taker and Kane's. Sure I was absolutely terrified of Taker but he was also my favorite wrestler. I kept watching SmackDown instead of Raw just cuz he'd pop up there. As an adult, I really appreciate the legacy Taker brought to WWE. What a legend.
As a kid, to start, I was more of a WCW/NWO fan. Because the Kane/Taker stuff scared the shit out of me. But as I got older WWF became the favorite. I’ll never forget 1990-1994 just being scared shitless every time the bell tolled lol or the lights went out and Kane came lurking out.
If you think #3 was bad, the next bump Mick took that night was far worse. The panel he fell through wasn't supposed to break loose, and Mick fell hard onto the ring below, not to mention that the folding chair hit him in the face on the way down, knocking a tooth through his lip and into his nostril. In that moment, The Undertaker thought he had legitimately killed him.
If the chair had landed straight up and Mick came down on it, that would've been a wrap on Mankind. The difference between life and death in that bump is frighteningly close.
Second one was actually semi-planned from what both Mark Callaway (undertaker) and Mick Foley have said with the first one being just discussed between the 2 of them and maybe Vince The cage was supposed to break through but in stages and not as cleanly as it did and Mick legitimately could've died if Mark didn't step back onto the side panelling after the chokeslam on the cage as he would've come down on mankind with his full weight It's a small miracle Mick was alive and Mark actually asked Terry Funk to check if Mick Foley was alive or not
Apparently, Taker actually went into that match with a broken/badly sprained ankle after slipping in the shower. As I said, apparently. Not sure if any of that was confirmed, but he does seem to have a limp.
Mark Calloway took The Undertaker persona to different levels of scary The deadman The ministry The American badass And finally back to the original The American badass Undertaker was scary cause he was unpredictable
Speaking of ministry, I personally feel like "Where to, Steph?" was a bit more terrifying than "Buckle up, Teddy" given how long he was hunting for her.
Funny thing about the Undertaker/Mankind Hell in a Cell match according to Mick Foley and Taker is the match had to go beyond the norms because Taker had a broken foot and they had no storyline segments or matches leading up to it, so they were going in cold. Meaning there was no heat built up beforehand. Mick said in an interview years later that after the match Vince McMahon came to him nearly in tears, thanked him for all he had done for the company and to never do anything like that again.
If you think about it he’s the only wrestler to continue past the gimmick era of wrestling in the’90’s & continue to be taken seriously beyond that era my favorite wrestler
Honorable mentions: Diesel and Randy Orton seeing “themselves” in a casket. Wrestlemania XV: The Undertaker lets the Big Boss Man get literally hung around with the help of the Brood Lightning destroys the ring where Kurt Angle is The lead up to WM20, Taker’s mind games including the ring moving by itself.
There were a few scarier than some of these: Hanging Big Boss Man. Taker's evil laugh when Austin ties him onto his symbol. Burning Stephanie's teddy in front of Vince. Basically almost every moment in the Ministry era.
@@davidheaven2961 That was a symbolic moment that lead to taker trying to marry Stephanie which in my opinion would've been interesting to see Stephanie on the darkside next to taker but of course they had to have Stone Cold be the savior.
Undertaker has always been one of my favorites. In my mind the most iconic match was him vs. Mankind in that Hell in a Cell match. The thumb tacks, Mankind getting throw off the cage, then through the cage and at the end you can see Foleys tooth hanging out his nose on his mustache. I just remember thinking damn. That had to be brutal. I wished I would have been able to experience just once in person the lights going out and the gong strike as even on tv is produced goosebumps.
The entrances of the great Undertaker were the most epic and most spectacular of all WWE stars. He always surprised with that terrifying and magnificent style that no one else can or will be able to overcome
Before the Undertaker beacame my favorite wrestler, my favorite was the Ultimate Warrior. As a young kid watching Warrior getting lock in that casket, having a case of claustrophobia myself, I freaked out so much that my mom turned off the TV and made me and my brothers go play outside.
One thing I like about Undertaker he knows his business very well and a good man. He's been doing this for a long time. Another another great wrestling match he has done is with Undertaker vs The Boogeyman Undertaker versus mankind An Undertaker vs Gangrel And he goes off against against Triple H Shawn Michaels. The most scariest manage I wish he could able to face against of this year will be the Bray Wyatt. If the Undertaker returns to 2021 a epic wrestling match between the new improved Bray Wyatt versus Undertaker
I used to be terrified of him back then when I was a kid I would literally look away when he would appear but then when he fighting I would look again but then when I got older I stopped getting scared
Undertaker is all time my favourite wrestler. Still whenever I see deadman entrance and music i get goosebumps each n every time... Thank you WWE and Undertaker for making our childhood awesome ❤️
I've seen Undertaker throw Mick Foley off the top of the cell hundreds of times. It hasn't lost any of its mystique over the years. It's hard to watch but you can't tear your eyes away for even a moment. That deafening crack as Mick Foley hits the table still shocks me just as it did the first time I've seen it. Mick Foley took two really nasty disturbing bumps that night, either of those could have killed him, good thing they didn't.
So Undertaker abducting Teddy was scary but Undertaker abducting Stephanie at Backlash 1999 doesn't get anything... That was the original and was way more darker.
What made the mankind moment scarier is what Jim Ross said. “Good god almighty, good god almighty, that killed him. As god as my witness, he is broken in half.”
I have a suggestion for honorable mention. Taker threatening and scaring Vickie Guererro 5 nights after SummerSlam in 2008 and then burying her with the Tombstone Piledriver 5 nights after Unforgiven the same year.
I myself personally believe the Undertaker's Best and by far scariest proformance of all time is the PPV Event of the 1998 Royal Rumble. Inwitch the Deadman gos 2 for 2 in the same night by calling down members of his ministry of darkness from the top of the arena. this being, Edge. Christian. & Gangrel. (The Brood) lowering a noose down through the top of the Cell of Hell so the Undertaker could hang the big boss man. And then also haveing his ministry come out to have King Mable abducted and assault him all the way to the backstage area then forcing him into the back of a hearse to evolve him into the new face of Visera... 😎
1) Hanging Big Bossman at Wrestlemania XV 2) Phantom of the Opera masked Taker after his orbital bone injury was a bit freaky to look at: Survivor Series '95-Royal Rumble '96 3) Dragging Diesel below the ring and having Diesel come back up with a sheer terrified look on his face and his gear ripped: In Your House Feb. '96 and speaking of Diesel... 4) Mannequin Diesel in a casket: Raw leading into Wrestlemania XII 5) Mannequin Randy and Bob Orton laying in a single casket: Smackdown...I forget the year. 2005/6?
The mankind one was probably unique, because that match not only was scary for the fans, it was also horrifying even for those in the WWF at that time, and even the Undertaker himself during that match, as he originally did not want some of the things that happened to do so, and Mankind falling through the cage was not planned. Let's just say when the match was over, Vince was PISSED.
1:42 me after getting afk killed Warriors casket I think was made to contain his abilities (his unnatural strength and speed) which basically took his life soruce almost away causing him to pass out talk and lore
*You forgot atleast 6 MAJOR moments-* 💯 1. When Undertaker "kills" Big Bossman by hanging him off a Steel Cage with a rope 2. When Undertaker & the Ministry stalk McMahon's home at night (looking in the window for Stephanie) then place a flaming Taker symbol on his front lawn 3. Ministry Taker kidnapped Stephanie McMahon in a limo (Way before Teddy Long's copycat version) 4. Undertaker home invasion- Taker breaks into Paul Bearers home at night, cuts his lights, then attacks him infront of his screaming wife 5. Taker & the Ministry strap Stephanie to a Taker symbol, carry her out, & forced her to marry him 6. When Taker held Sable hostage in the ring, choking her for minutes, threatening to "Snap her head off her shoulders" until Vince came out Half your list is peanuts compared to the ACTUAL Scariest Taker moments. Do your research kid 💯
Would have loved a story where the undertaker hands his urn to Damien priest or another upcoming wrestler and they become the undertaker 2.0; this character could live forever
