I will take this hands down, no hesitation over Taker fading away into a quiet retirement and never seeing him except for very rare image shattering cameos on WWE, highlight reels and stories told by other wrestlers.
Bad things tend to happen to people when the undertaker has a chair in his hands. I thought it was just because he's big and strong with long arms not because hes an asshole
I totally agree. The way Maven delivered that joke with such a serious expression caught both the Undertaker and his co-host off guard for a moment. Seeing the smile on the Undertaker's face was awesome. I really hope Maven comes on the show more often.
Cornette has always said he'd rather take a chairshot (or tombstone) from 'taker than most of the high spot moves that they now do on a regular basis on TV.
Well, didn't Cornette broke an ankle from falling on the ring from a height? Of course he would say that, he has first experience about how bad high spots can get.
man u hit the nail on the head with this one never cared about maven even would skip his matches now totally different perspective he has earned my interest
Maven still have a chance to win the 2002 Royal Rumble after 22 years later. He was thrown out through the second-rope by Taker. He just need to find Triple H continue the match.
The shots Taker received from his feuds with Randy Orton were also brutal, like his feuds with Mick Foley and Brock Lesnar in 2002 and 2003, and I don't think Taker targeted him. The point is that in that era, the mentality and level of safety were different than now.
@@pleighboi661 tbh that style of chairshot, where the seat gets to open up as it hits you, I think would hurt less since the chair seat is opening instead of remaining solid
"If I swung a chair at someone the way I swung it, I'd expect one back." But you block any chair shot with your hand/arm, everyone else takes them to the head...
@@radicalstanza3614 Bullshit dude he could have defended himself from the head shots plenty of guys even then did maybe not the first swing but they would put them up for everyone after that
@@jasonx1174I believe Foley was mad about that, because there were extra shots but mostly because he didn't apologize afterwards but apparently Rock did apologize but Mick forgot.
Have you ever heard him talk about it? So he went into the match and was trying to tell Brody what to do. I guess he threw Brody into the ropes and yells "CLOTHESLINE" and Brody just drop kicked him and then beat he ass outside the ring lol. Taker was like "It was my immaturity that did that to me lol"
Wrestling fans love it when their favorite Super-Marks do insane flips in every match where they nearly break their neck, set themselves on fire, jump on thumbtacks but Chair shots??? Nah that’s just way too much.
This. People are sheep and happy to be spoon fed rhetoric without questioning it. Chair shots are dangerous but a package piledriver or dragon suplex on the ring apron isn't? You 100% nailed it in your comment, it's nice to see someone with sense and who is capable of using their brain to think independently.
The only AEW clip I've ever seen and ever will see is a guy doing a Canadian Destroyer off of a ladder held on the ropes onto 4 stacked tables which he basically entirely missed and ended up landing on Dante Martin and breakng his leg completely in half which was the worst injury I've ever seen in a wrestling ring. If that is what some people think is pro wrestling now I don't know what to say.
That’s a problem with a lot of wrestlers right now. I always used to watch the show and in the back of my mind I trust that they’re professionals and they’re probably going to be fine. With a lot of wrestling (I’ll just say it, mostly in aew) it’s hard to watch without cringing because I don’t trust that they aren’t going to injure themselves for no reason, and I don’t want to feel like I’m supporting it. Even guys like danielson who’s one of my favorite wrestlers and I’m certain he knows how to protect himself, just chooses not to and makes it where I can’t watch most of his matches. It’s pretty sad
@@shauner8754 Exactly... so ridiculous. He's an ex wrestler who was VERY lucky to get a chance in the first place, talking about wrestling things. Nothing more LOL
Undertaker, I got in to watching and becoming a fan of wrestling because of you. When you were Mean Mark with the heart punch I was hooked. Thank you for all the years of entertainment you brought to me and everyone else that got hooked on wrestling because of you. Wrestling will never be the same without you. Again Thank you.
If you notice, WWE has been using the same type of chair for years and years now. Used to be blue now it's usually black but it's always that same chair and that's got to be for a reason I'm sure.
@@Sunsetdreamer0 Yeah they bend easier and make better sound when connecting. The old chairs used to be stiff and you'd rarely get a satisfying "clank".
@@viktorstagnetti7491 I would also imagine that also the wrestlers know how to use them, change the chair make and they have to unlearn and learn some things more chance of a accident, don't change what doesn't need changing in this regards
I appreciate you guys just having real conversations. It shows you’re human too and that a lot of these rumours are just that… rumours! Love hearing these stories about the matches I watched during my youth.
I am so happy that I got a chance to see this. I’ve been watching maven talk about being so excited about knowing you and meeting you. This is great years later.😂
I saw a clip the other day where Taker was saying that it’s his job to make this stuff look as real as possible, even if it isn’t, and safety is a primary concern, that he’d go backstage and have wrestlers ask him if he actually got injured. I presume that goes both ways. I think fans can really only comment up to a certain point. If it looks real, or brutal, chances are, the wrestlers are just doing their jobs well, and they know how to do them. What I’d worry about is if wrestlers came out and said, hey, this guy is unsafe. No idea what he’s doing. But nobody’s saying that about Taker. They’re saying they got taken care of, and it was a good experience for them. Add to that the pre-CTE knowledge era. Lots of judgement by people living in a different era, who’ve never done anything like this before and can’t know.
Although there's no malice some chair shots during the Attitude and Ruthless Aggression Era does make it seem like that's the intention especially Rock's chair shots to Mankind to where majority if them make it seem like Rock hated Mankind. Dude hit Mankind with some of the hardest swung chair shots I've seen
The rock Vs mankind match was disgusting to watch back knowing what we know now but I doubt Dwayne had any bad intentions with it although he should have in the moment known that was way too far
mark i enjoy your podcasts and do you remember when you signed my WWF Magazine it was probliy around 99 anyway it was great to meet you at meiger you signed chairs for my brother anyways keep up the great work by storytelling your carer in the business much appreciated
Taker is not wrong. He did hit everyone the same in that time period. Go watch Survivor Series 2003. That's a few months after the Kanyon chair shot. Taker absolutely melts a shovel on Vince McMahon's head. McMahon just crumples. It's sicker than any chair shot I've ever seen.
Interestingly, I just saw a video from another wrestler talking about CTE and how the front of the head is actually the WORST place because it maximizes brain movement within the skull. I will say I appreciate Taker addressing the homophobic chair shot allegations. I didn't really know what to think because that kind of thing does happen unfortunately. Extra meaningful for me to hear as a queer person. I appreciate it, sincerely. Also worth noting, Kanyon also had bipolar disorder. I have the same disorder. It's rough.
Taker did the same to Lesnar at Unforgiven 2002, hit him so hard the chair bent. Same for JBL, Maven, Edge, etc. That's how they swung them back then, check out the Hardy Boyz hitting Lesnar and The Rock hitting Foley brutally like 9 times. He definitely laid them in but wasn't discriminating
It's not lying to say you weren't targeting or discriminating against anyone when ALL your chair shots were stiff because EVERYBODY'S chair shots were stiff. That much is true. Taker doesn't even need to be in the room for a discussion on being unsafe. Well, I guess he can be if he wants to give a death glare to people who deserve it.. Rocky
goat of all goats the Deadman, the American Bad Ass, Big evil man you are my favorite wrestler of all time. The promos, the walk, the gong, the eyes, the bikes everything. Thank you Mark for being part of my chil/adulthood. Really appreciate you man
the middle of the chair is perfect shot, no edge or legs to dent your skull, makes a great sound that sounds painful as fuck, and really when your head is trained does not really hurt. and will not cause concussion if on the correct part of the skull ---- note: for a couple of shots only... not for 14 or whatever it was for the mankind rock match where mankind was handcuffed and had no chance to use the hands to protect the head.
The issue with Kanyon wasn't so much that Taker had an issue with him being gay, if he didn't that's fine, it's that some of the boys in the back or someone with some pull knew or figured it out and singled him out to make an example of him. The angles the guy was placed in only make sense from the perspective of someone being sent out to be mocked for not fitting in to someone's ideal of "normal".
I would love to eventually see Stone Cold as a guest and they go through the storyline they had. Especially when Austin got knocked out in NYC and Earl Hebner goes dammit boy you in da Gaden lol
Doubt the page /anyone from Six feet under YT will see this but if someone does. You should start putting video clips in These shorter videos. For example, show a 20 second clip of the maven chair shit while they’re talking about it, show the takers first tombstone as he’s talking about it etc. And just clip It over the video in post production. Just a thought/suggestion. Love the show , I was a 90s kid, and love anything even somewhat attitude /ruthless era of wrestling!
Taker had some of the best chair shots though.. they were clean and straight down the middle and they always looked hard af.. you could hear that smack from across the arena lol.. He would wind all the way back and bring it down hard.. While Stone Cold for example would just throw it around like a mad man
i wonder what undertaker thinks of the match he could have had with current talent, great big guys like drew and gunther, as long as workhorse smaller guys like gable, sami, and dragunov
The one where he smacked Shawn Michaels square in the forehead when he was already busted open, and then promptly threw the chair away in disgust is one that always stood out to me.
01:42 - Things started to get really tensed as Mark Calaway gets serious with the other chap.... The laughing just stops and the environment in the room changes from happy to serious real fast.....You can literally feel the tension. 08:02 - WOW.....Mark Calaway asks the guy to apologize... Means the Undertaker took the comment/allegation seriously. It wasn't a joke at all.
Might be a tough ask, could you get Nathan Jones on? Always saw him as a what could’ve been. Or maybe do a segment and just talk about his time in WWE.
The fact that even on the WWE 2K when someone is stood up you still hit them in the head with a chair it doesn't force you to hit there side like on WWE TV you can hit there chest.
To put this in perspective, Yokozuna was well over five hundred pounds yet he never hurt anyone in his short career because he knew how to give and take. Taker did that for over thirty years and the opponents he faced were more unsafe than he ever would be and that's a testament to the quality of a performer he was and still occasionally is for spots.
I always wonder why no one else ever really did that crushed throat chair shot Undertaker basically invented. It did look devastating like you don't just want to hurt them but injure them.
Taker having his first match against Bruiser Brody is still crazy to me. Talk about a debut.
Didn’t taker accidentally hit bruiser Brody little bit too hard. And Brody taught Taker a lesson with that chair shot to the back.
talk about learning the hard way
@@kirkdavis8964Yes, that was the difference. Brody didn’t try to hurt him, but he definitely meant it to hurt.
@@kirkdavis8964 no worse he tried call spots on the fly with Brody of all people.
Brody was like "You gon' learn today!"

If you want to see a chair shot either Taker on Jeff Hardy or Jeff Hardy/Matt Hardy on Brock Lesnar
If Undertaker hit me with a chair, I would brag about it the rest of my life.

Anything that includes a Perfect story is always top notch.

It's well known kanyon was a little off his rocker. James Mitchel have an interesting story about it on dark side of the ring
I hope Taker has DDP on next, to talk about the alleged heat with some WCW/ECW guys in 2001, including DDP and Mike Awesome.
It’s wild seeing this guys when I saw their feud growing up haha
Undertaker and Rock always swung for the fences when they delivered chair shots
Taker really acting like he wasn't trying to kill mfs with some of those chair shots😂
Maven was so quick with that phone gag
i wonder what undertaker thinks of the match he could have had with current talent, great big guys like drew and gunther, as long as workhorse smaller guys like gable, sami, and dragunov
Great podcast! Taker's voice sounds a little different.
The one where he smacked Shawn Michaels square in the forehead when he was already busted open, and then promptly threw the chair away in disgust is one that always stood out to me.
He did not crack a smile at sandle boy😂😭
01:42 - Things started to get really tensed as Mark Calaway gets serious with the other chap.... The laughing just stops and the environment in the room changes from happy to serious real fast.....You can literally feel the tension.
08:02 - WOW.....Mark Calaway asks the guy to apologize... Means the Undertaker took the comment/allegation seriously. It wasn't a joke at all.
That wheeze at 0:15 🤣
Taker has that "uncle at the cookout" kinda laugh. 😂
@@whinnysandwhiskers😂
Might be a tough ask, could you get Nathan Jones on? Always saw him as a what could’ve been. Or maybe do a segment and just talk about his time in WWE.
This is why we are professionals and you are a mark.
Haha, awesome
The fact that even on the WWE 2K when someone is stood up you still hit them in the head with a chair it doesn't force you to hit there side like on WWE TV you can hit there chest.
I would still like Taker to explain that chair shot to Kennedy at Survivor Series 2006. That shot was brutal
maven with the uncle leo reference right off the bat
To put this in perspective, Yokozuna was well over five hundred pounds yet he never hurt anyone in his short career because he knew how to give and take. Taker did that for over thirty years and the opponents he faced were more unsafe than he ever would be and that's a testament to the quality of a performer he was and still occasionally is for spots.
I always wonder why no one else ever really did that crushed throat chair shot Undertaker basically invented. It did look devastating like you don't just want to hurt them but injure them.
At 5:22 you can see undertaker burning a hole in Matt with his look and trying to recover his calm demeanor 😂
Mavena is built for RUclips his channel is amazing and his a good story teller
It's funny how the internet smarks seem to know how to do a chair shot better than the Undertaker, a guy who has been wrestling for decades.
