You don't know
Love It CVVCLIPS Bro
He took the blame, I SHOULD HAVE noticed his bell was rung. That's a pro.
Compared to Goldberg...
@@malcolmjwilliams3521 afterall, Goldberg is a competitor not an entertainer and wants it to be as realistic as possible. Taker shouldn’t take all the blame. Goldberg has been in the wresting business for a long time and you think he would’ve known better, especially when it comes to hitting the post.
@@richie9308 Goldberg doesn’t take a whole lot of responsibility for his style of wrestling. Especially because it causes injury
...because that's his responsibility? it's not like goldberg got concussed on purpose
Goldberg sucks
The thing i respect most about the undertaker is that he is always honest, never tried to back down from criticism
Lies. He denied wwe buried talent from other companies
@@fupaloverthere weren’t too many big stars that were worth pushing when all of wcw came in. they could’ve did raven justice for sure though.
@akuma.101 DDP was no small timer
Honest about himself but very defensive when it comes to other things related to wwe in general.@@fupalover
@@onma07ksa not honest enough to realize he should’ve let go after the 3rd Triple H Mania match. Maybe after the CM Punk match but that’s as far as I’ll push it. Everything after was 👎 and he’s my favorite wrestler of all time
Taker is such a humble and down to earth guy. Not a trace of ego.
shut up
Wished this match happened in 2003 or 2004😢
Still would've been a train wreck. Goldberg was always terrible in the ring
@tariqbares But Undertaker was younger, better and still capable of carrying a match if necessary.
Sadly, Goldberg ended Hart's career. @mr.awesome6011
Agreed, too bad that was an era when they took brand split very serious.
Match would of still been awful.
Theres no reason to headbutt a door or wall before a match offcamera.
That's Goldberg for you though. He's never been the sharpest tool in the shed. He breathed in the fumes of the smoke from his pyro when he was not supposed to and so on.
@@michaeldaugherty2293 yeah was just gonna say Goldberg never seemed like a smart dude to put it nicely😂.
Well that was his rututal before every match
It'd be like a soccer player kicking the wall full force before going out on the pitch
He’s told to do that dummy it’s his gimmick.
This should’ve been wrestleMania 2004- 2006
Or just an Interbrand match in 03.
Summerslam 1998. Austin and Taker bonked heads and Austin was clearly concussed. Taker basically carried Austin the entire match and it ended up being very good.
That’s almost 30 years ago.

This match was hard to watch. I’m glad we got the WrestleMania XXXVI match with Styles as a proper send off.
Integrity is a great quality to have.
You having having higher standards of yourself in matches is the very reason you have the fans that you do with the respect in locker room from fellow wrestlers. You are genuine.
As they say 'father time is undefeated.' Great that Taker recognised this and out now, with his health and getting to enjoy his legacy
Him and Austin both went out on a high note and have ( mostly) kept it that way.
@@nicholashaan7345 Love Taker but he stayed in the game too long.
@@nicholashaan7345actually Austin didn't he went straight from the hospital to go battle the rock which made things worse that was a cursed mania u had hogan break his hip Kurt break his neck brock almost die and Austin struggling with his pain
Fanboys still want him to wrestle today 😂
I love these videos of him explaining the matches and the behind the scenes stuff, makes me love and respect this guy even more.
Don’t know if you have read Brett Harts book he describes his matches really well too worth a read if you haven’t already.
I met the Undertaker outside a theater once in Austin. And saw him again at a steakhouse. The scale of this guy is crazy, and a nice guy.
He’s a real one, at least he acknowledges he didn’t care for Goldberg safety, taker is basically saying he cared about the match being as good as he projected it to be. Until he realized last moment the match was getting dangerous!! That tombstone Goldberg took looked very unsafe
Bro, what the hell are you talking about? Of course she was concerned about Goldberg safety. He literally just said he should have been more aware of how hurts he truly was and you should have had the awareness to in the match relatively quick because at the end of the day, Goldbergcould only go so much and take her should’ve been aware enough to realize that it cut the match short
Exactly @@flyguy7825
Thank you Chris for this. I've seen videos about the match but they're basically assumptions. Its good to hear about it from the legend himself.
Mark was a legend inside the ring and he's a legend in real life too.... nothing but RESPECT for him ❣️💟❣️
Undertaker’s interviews get better and better.
Never really was an undertaker the character fan but Mark the man and professional has my full respect.
Great interview
It would be cool if you guys would add a clip of the match after the interview, great podcast love it
The crowd still chanted "this is awesome" right before the botched finish.
Cause the sauds are dumb
you are the dumb one, you stupid racist ignorant tool
they were excited to see taker @fupalover
@@fupalover I guarantee there is sign equivalent to the old applause and laugh signs for sitcoms. A Saudi show is almost like the North Korean wrestling event NJPW did.
People who chant "this is awesome" should be sent to the Gulag.
@@fupalover if theyw ere smart they wouldnt follow a cult created by a arab guy name muhammad
i appreciate how we got kane vs goldberg both in their kinda prime. kinda like how we at least got sting confronting corporate kane.
Lol that's the closest sting got to anything to do with taker in the ring unless u count mean mark in wcw vs sting
@@juliemillington9907 i remember night of champions demon kane came back right after sting got injured and carried away. like damn it we were so close. at least we got that wwe 2k18 promo with them 2
Taker is such a classy individual. One of the greatest of alltime
"The Breaks" as u get older... I know 60yr olds that still play contact sports like Rugby... but the secret is they never stop,cuz once u do.... it is tough to get it going again
Undertaker is a true professional. No excuses. Just the business
Man I wish the WCW invasion angle had all the top WCW guys. Can you imagine how awesome that would have been. 😢
Invasion main event 5v5:
WWF:
Austin
Rock
Taker
Kane
Angle
WCW:
Sting
Flair
Goldberg
Hogan
Booker T
Loads of different combinations. But yes, the Invasion angle would have been much better if all top stars were available.
Vince wanted to bury the WCW guys, that's why the invasion was so bad. Goldberg, because of the guaranteed money that Nash is always crowing about, was able to stay home for two years and get paid after WCW, before deciding to return to wrestling in the WWE. They should have been smart enough to have Goldberg work with Taker before Goldberg left the WWE. There's a video where Cornette fantasy-books the WCW invasion, and it's a pretty good card that would have been good for everyone.
We could have had Sting vs taker at WM
No it wouldn't because Vince was burying everyone.
@@AJ-xv7oh I agree Vince buried NWO and Sting, hell look what he did to DDP, even Goldberg you could argue, amongst the top guys. But then you had WCW guys who came in and had stellar careers like Jericho, Mysterio, Big Show, Eddie, Booker T. I just think the stories that could have been told and top quality matches, huge main events, and ppv buys that could have been if the top WCW guys came over during the invasion angle would have been like nothing ever seen or done again.
What a man he's one of the best
When taker started taking longer breaks from wrestling, that was when father time caught up :(
He speaks of father time as if hes met him and had a good talk.
Taker had numerous injuries through his career and never took time off. That's what did him in along with time not being kind to people of Undertaker's size. Their bodies wear down a lot faster and the first things to go for guys of his size are the hips & knees, which Taker has had numerous problems with over the years, even in his prime. He's always had problems with bone spurs as well. It's a lot of mass & weight to be carrying around along with taking the bumps that he took, while flying through the air and out of the ring at 300 pounds. Taker went 15 years living in pain because of his bad hip before he ever thought about getting it fixed. This is what lead to his hip replacement. He wore his hip out by not getting it fixed sooner.
somewhere 1999 - 2004 would've been a great time period for this match
I love Undertaker's take on this. It wasn't Goldberg's fault but rather he was upset that he didn't realize the issues on hand. As a musician, I always pride myself on being able to improvise when someone makes a mistake. Recently I was working with a young guy and I thought we were going great, that I absolutely missed his error on one of our last songs, and we totally messed up. People blamed him....but I supported him. He made a mistake but we are a team and I messed up by not covering. As the group leader, I really should have picked up on it.
No moron. It was completely Oldberg's fault. He was already bleeding from head butting a locker like an idiot.
"wasn't Goldbergs fault"...... The guy headbutted a wall on purpose pre match
No one asked
Nobody cares leader boy
@@That90sShow yet you commented
I love Undertake he’s a real one
Man ya can hear his voice breaking, shows his absolute passion ☝💞
Taker and Goldberg should have met years earlier, that probably would have been a much better match.
Yeah, I’ve seen a lot of criticism about the match because of Goldberg necessary mind you these two guys are old. They’re not young anymore so you can’t expect them to continue to do something they used to do just because they’re in shape there’s a difference between being in shape and being Young
You can tell this match really affected Taker & still does
The brothers of distruction vs dx at crown jewel was worse than the undertaker vs goldberg match
Nah Shawn won and he was good in it, remaining people in the match don't talk about them😂
Old crown jewel was cursed, on top of the stars getting old. Looks like they have gotten the house in order though.
Nah no way
What a performer and pro he's always honest
He wasn't here!
Love to hear him talk about Unforgiven 2001
I honestly never thought we'd see a match between undertaker and Goldberg.
Everyone's too hard on this match they honestly did their best they were in Saudi Arabia in the scalding heat honestly 19 year old me was off the edge of my seat when Goldberg hit those first two spears and the Undertaker just sat up and death stared Goldberg like it was nothing this match could have ended after the first tombstone and I would have been happy.
undertaker i always respected him for him being a stand up dude and he even took the blame for the match with goldberg what a pro
I think that's literally one of the only big-time matches I've never watched ⁉️ 🤔. Especially since they are two of my favorite top 5 wrestlers probably ever. Let me go watch it now matter of fact. Thanks
Taker is such a class act
Chris set the thumbnail up perfect to make me think he was about to dig Goldberg. Lmao. Well played sir.
such a great wrestler and good man
Undertaker is a true leader. Instead of blaming others, he takes extreme ownership. This is why he is the most respected figure in wrestling!
I remember seeing this and Undertaker was angry and it stood out to me because I was really used to him never reacting to anything
I think it is funny in a wierd way how there are so many marks out there who can tell you which Wrestlemania it was when the Undertaker lost the streak but yet the Undertaker himself is like "Which Wrestlemania was that?!" lol.
That is one Hell of a concussion when he can't remember anything from 2pm that day till the time he was in the hospital.
I am really enjoying these post career Undertaker shoot interviews. It amazes me how he just seems to be such a laid back cool, NICE GUY! So completely different than the character we saw him play all those years, much like a Stan Hansen or Stone Cold Steve Austin. It just makes you appreciate the dedication to plating that character that he had all the more and on a different level than you did back in the day
Not that funny. Years of drugs, alcohol, and head trauma will tend to lead to a shoddy memory
@@glich86 That is the not so funny part for the guy who did the booze and took the drugs and the head shots.
The hysterical part is the marks that would act as if you or I had committed blasphemy if one of us had said the Undertaker had lost the streak at the wrong Wrestlemania.
NEEERDS!!! GET A LIFE!!!
@@glich86 okay and? I'm supposed to have sympathy for what another grown man chose to do with his free time?
You can’t help but love Undertaker. Both of those guys, looked great for their age at the time, but were still just shadows of their former selves. That would have been a dream match back in the early 2000s. I know Goldberg wasn’t the best worker, but when he was in the ring with pros, that knew how to work a good match, and set their ego aside, they were able to actually get good matches out of him. Taker, definitely would have been one of those guys. Unfortunately, we didn’t get it until very late in their careers, and it was a debacle.
This is what made Taker locker room general manager
Saw UT wrestle for WCW in 1990-1991 as Mean Mark.
I wish I could have went back and comprehended who I was truly seeing!
So agile for his height!
He was a basketball player before he went professional wrestling which would of helped. Class wrestler though.
I will always be both a Goldberg and Undertaker fan. But that match really hurt both their later careers (For Goldberg especially) and I hope that people know that it was a case of just two guys that were past their prime, trying to put on a match like they were in it. The best they could've done would've been to have Goldberg hit numerous spears, Taker sitting up and Goldberg getting locked in the hells gate to pass out.
See this is the type of guy you want to work with and the type of guy who SHOULD be a role model for all sorts of entertainers and workers, he don't point fingers, he put it upon himself on how he would improve the situation, a man of solution, not a man of yapping.
Good point
Taker being booked to win is half of what went wrong
Facts
That was always going to happen ain't no way vince was letting a wcw guy go over taker it would have been the same result if they faced in there prime which is why sting never faced taker except he accepted a pay off to drop to his son in law instead
This man is a legend🔥
“I broke my back.”- Mike Tyson
Spinal 😂 #Tyson
Brutal match
I still think that both of them had some dehydration issues and possibly some exhaustion from the heat. I've had both and neither is pleasant especially at their age.
If the undertaker and Goldberg work together like 23 years earlier they would’ve had a better match
Undertaker is the GOAT. I'll die on that hill.
Can you post link in the description to the match he is referring to? Saves time trying to hunt for it.
Has the whole interview dropped yet? I can't find it
Undertaker spitting facts, everyone blamed Goldberg but wwe creative should’ve been blame first for waiting past their prime and having two older men wrestling in such a hot environment. Booker at said he felt like he was dying in the ring when he wrestled in Saudi.
This what the locker room needs
Everybody blamed Goldberg for the match but he was hurt massive respect to taker for taking responsibility after and saying he was at fault fair play
Undertaker should be a big fixture of the performance centre passing his wealth of knowledge on the young talent
The Undertaker and Goldberg was more of the WWF vs WCW dream match then Taker vs Sting, y'all need to remember sting was the blonde surfer sting when undertaker was the deadman.
Taker was over the hill by then and Goldberg had never been up the hill in the first place.
The Undertaker is the best
When that match was announced, ngl, I was hyped up.
But reality quickly set in, and I was like "this is an awesome match idea, but it should've been done in 2003.".
I actually cried after watching that match
Taker is the man
1:05 makes rocks performance at mania quite impressive like hunter said
Agreed.
Undertaker vs Goldberg its too late ,maybe 2016 ..but 2003-2004 would be cool match between these two, Undertaker vs Sting would be also cool maybe 12-13 years ago
@IStevenSeagal I mean Wrestlemania 28 Sting vs Undertaker..would be epic
We got prime Kane vs Goldberg… look up that match!
That’s similar to how a prime undertaker vs Goldberg match would be
@@LK56835 Kane is not Undertaker
@@scarlet7396 same type of fighters, are brothers, so basically the same
Taker should've been retired before 2016.
Class!!!!
Another thing about getting older is because you have to try just a little harder to pull things off, you have to pay a little more attention to form and technique etc. and I think that in itself takes a person out of that flow state where decisions and reactions just happen naturally.
NO. This is EXACTLY what happend. He was out of shape, not on roids, no gym, had no desire to do it, didnt train, didnt care, and simply sold out. He was paid a large sum of money for one nights work and took it at all costs to his pride and integrity...Because thats what a sell out does!
That Saudi Oil Money makes a parody of anyone.
Though I cannot stand Goldberg, it's mighty big of Mark to accept his hand in that blunder of a match. You don't hear a wrestler pretty much say "I had no business being in that ring" often. You are still a legend, Mark. Everyone's career has some dark spots.
Goldberg receives so much criticism for that match, but if you look closely, he actually slipped and hit his head real hard on to that ring post. It was purely an accident.
I’m sure banging his head on doors before going out to the match didn’t help either
No dumbass. He headbutts a locker backstage to show "what a man" he is. He was bleeding walking down the ramp. Did his dumbass hurt himself more? Perhaps. If you are already concussed it is easier to get others.
Yeah he made a mistake. People expected perfection.
I love how Goldberg fans always make excuses for him. Undertaker slipped give me a break, Goldberg made so many mistakes in that match it was a total shit show. Undertaker is lucky he didn’t break his neck. Goldberg has always been a green wrestler with little or no training so if you have to lead a match Goldberg couldn’t do it and he would get frustrated make mistakes. Thats what happened in this match. Every long match Goldberg had was crap and he never led any match it was always the more experienced wrestler leading. Goldberg should’ve learned how to wrestle and not injure his opponents. He should stop making excuses.
@@Wongwongwong10000 at the end of the day, being technical in the ring doesn’t mean anything if you’re not putting asses on seats. This is on WWE for being greedy.
The American Badass, one of the greatest of all time
Bill vs Taker should’ve taken place at WM20!
Goldberg was a prime example that you don't always have to be a pro to be in pro wrestling.
Goldberg is the kid friendly version of Stone Cold Steve Austin
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Undertaker = GOAT
I always felt Taker was a shell of himself the last 7-8 Manias. The entrance was beyond over but the work was subpar.
I love taker but he overstayed a little too long
Vs John cena it did not feel like that.
The CM Punk match was the last time he as at his A-game
@@saimcheeda93was thinking the same, the Lesnar matches post WM 30 were good but after that, it wasn’t great although was still cool to see taker.
I find for myself after he lost to Lesnar at the WM in New Orleans, I stopped caring for his wrestlemania matches. After that loss, his matches just felt like another match on the card, there was nothing special about them anymore because “the streak” was the appeal for me, and once that was broken, i just didn’t care anymore.
Undertaker is the GOAT
Translation I was too old to make Goldberg look good in a match 😂
😂 💯 accurate
Ah Goldberg, anytime his match had to be over 3 minutes he was fcked
@@ts1265even in his young days. He is still so pissed about his regal match eventhough regal gave him his only great match ever there
Too old to make a concussed* Goldberg look good in a match
@@ackattack1002 that’s even worse than a regular Goldberg
WWE should have done what AEW did with Sting's last run. Put Undertaker in a tag team with a young guy who can "run around", take the bumps and Undertaker could still do his big spots.
It would have extended Undertaker's career and it gets a young guy over. "2 birds, 1 stone."
Randy Orton (pre back surgery long absence) said the same thing about his pairing with Riddle as RK-Bro. Riddle took all the bumps so Randy could get the big pop hot tag and run finishers.
The thumbnail is funnier if you're from the UK.
Brett Hart is somewhere beating his chest while screaming "I TOLD YOU SO!!!"
When they put 2 older guys (both over 50) in a ring after midnight after a long plane flight & in searing heat what the hell were they expecting??
Time is a motherfucker but legacy of The Undertaker will live forever
They need a rematch to settle it
Undertaker is like the Michael Jackson of wwe a perfectionist and yea he did do some matches he shoulda let go but none the less we appreciated him
Dead Man a class act
This match should have happened at wrestlemania 20
Undertaker was the guy calling the match. Goldberg rose to meteoric success, but was green even when he was on top. Then spent over a decade away and made this little comeback run. He was still the less experienced guy, and they had never worked together. Goldberg has also taken the blame and feels bad about it, because both guys had huge impacts on the business during its biggest time and wanted to do this for the fans and each other. Instead, it collapsed. Undertaker takes the blame because he's a guy who is SO experienced and always expects the best from himself.
It was unfortunate to see, but what's worse is the crappy fans who don't know anything (but think they do) who start blaming either of these two legends for what happened.
2019 was probably the worst year
