- An Australian girl terrified of, but still crushing on The Undertaker and learning about the long term storytelling in wrestling.
Thank you to @SuperEyepatchWolf for the hard work you put into creating the video that I am reacting to. You can find the original video here: • The Undertaker: Long T...

the wrestler who wrestled as a dentist went on to wrestler as kane aka the undertaker's brother , they had a storyline that lasted from 1995-2020 and they worked together so much that they actually ended up having a brother like relationship in the real world
Yeah I didn’t know that until today. I’ll have to look him up.
undertaker debut 1990
The undertaker is, without a doubt, the best wrestler of all time. For 30 years, he reinvented himself and put his body through misery. And entertained the wwe universe wanting to give them a perfect match to end on, which was against aj styles in 2020, he's my favorite, and definitely deserves his hall of fame spot, for his dedication, great character, helping out younger talent, and always working backstage, even now 3 years after he finally retired. Rest in peace, taker, mark galloway
Calaway
His name is Mark Calaway
19:20 For the most part yes. Most top superstars get a big say in who they think is "worthy" of defeating them.
The Undertaker pioneered the idea of consistently using his position as a top guy to let other people defeat him and create other great wrestlers.
That tactic was perfected by The Rock. He lost often during the height of his popularity and always used his star power to get other people over. Kudos to Taker for pioneering that trend.
I love that!
@@inbedwithmovies3228 Yes. That's why The Rock is the GOAT for me. He wasn't defined by accomplishments and dominance. He was defined by character, match quality, ratings, merch sales, and all the other fundamental aspects of pro wrestling.
@@x-man9473 excellent, I’m watching some of his wrestling soon. Looking forward to it.
I can agree about the Rock because he always lost to Stone Cold but would always beat Triple H ,yet Triple H always beats Austin like wtf
@@tommypearson9260 The Rock let Triple H defeat him in title matches at pay per views multiple times.
>Triple H defeated The Rock in a four way match at Wrestlemania 2000
>let him take the Intercontinental Title match from him at the 1998 Summerslam.
>He won the world championship from him at Fully Loaded 1999
>Triple H defeated The Rock and 5 other wrestlers in a "six pack" match at 1999 Unforgiven.
>He defeated The Rock in a steel cage match at Rebellion 1999.
>He defeated The Rock for the world championship in an iron man match at Backlash 2000.
All throughout 1999 and 2000, The Rock let Triple H defeat him for titles and successfully defend titles against him in a variety of match types at pay per view events.
The Phenom, The Deadman, The American Bad Ass, Big Evil and now Hall of Famer. Thank you Undertaker for 30 years and thank you Jess for your reaction
Thanks for watching Drew
I respect the Undertaker insanely for the fact that he inspired everyone with horror for 30 years was devoted to his beloved work and gave himself to it all
30 years!! He seems to be one of the real greats.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 He was on an episode of a TV Series called Poltergeist: The Legacy as well...
@@inbedwithmovies3228, many consider him THE greatest of all time. And almost anyone consider him as the greatest gimmcik in wrestling history.
That guy that played Paul Bearer his manager was a real mortician he did work in a funeral parlor before
Really? Wow, what a career change! Though still working with a “dead man”…
@In Bed With Movies:
Paul Bearer actually continued to operate his funeral parlour business throughout his wrestling career. Most of the props used by the Undertaker (coffins, urns, hearses) were provided by his manager. There was even a storyline where they tried to embalm one of 'Takers opponents alive, in a real morgue, and it was clear that Paul knew exactly how to carry out the procedure.
Oh my gosh, yuuuuuuck lol. I have to admit, as far as morticians go, I much prefer Dan Aykroyd in My Girl. Interesting gimmick though.
I was eight years old when The Undertaker debuted in 1990 and he instantly became my favourite. When Brock Lesnar broke the streak I woke up my neighbour (I think it was about 4am UK time?) due to shouting and swearing at the top of my lungs... When I bumped into him at the local pub later that evening he asked what all the commotion was about, "I don't want to talk about it."
(it still pisses me off to this very day!)
I’m sorry to initially laugh at your frustration.
I imagine it would have been infuriating but I am slightly envious that you have something that you’re THAT passionate about.
I agree I think that the 2 loses he had were bullshit he should never had the streak broke and I know how much him n Vince have love for each other BUT Vince shouldn't have that streak broken.. The streak is equal to Tom Brady winning 6 Super Bowls and The New York Yankees winning World Series...
I was born two years later (I was born in 1992) ... and the same goes for me ...
@@MulaKennelsTaker was always going to lose eventually. There's no way he wouldn't have gone out the way so many old-school legends did, putting over the younger talent for the future.
We can agree or disagree about the man who broke the streak and whether or not he deserved it, but it was always going to end eventually.
Wrestlemania is like the super bowl, the NBA finals, the world cup of WWE
Awesome, thank you.
Wrestlemania is the biggest show in the business
Probably the most powerful part of the Undertaker's last sit up is actually Roman's reaction. You can tell that he's in about as much disbelief as everyone else in the crowd.
Fr, and considering that Roman Reigns (real name Joe Anawaii) grew up in wrestling as a 4th generation performer you can only imagine what it must have felt like to see such a legend among men seem so fragile and weary. Undertaker was a man his grandfathers generation may have wrestled against when Taker was a green rookie. Who's career spanned his whole life, and now you have to be the one to end it.
It's not Shawn Michaels "I'm sorry, I love you", but it's close.
This girl is cute AF and I love her genuine reactions to a story she wasn’t aware of.
I’ve been watching wrestling since 1989 when I was 4.
I’ve only ever been to one wrestlemania.
And it was this wrestlemania where the Undertaker lost.
The crowd was silent after this loss. I’ve never experienced anything like it.
It wasn’t a bad silence. It was a silence of when someone unbelievable happens. No one expected it. We didn’t expect it. Because of 21 years we had seen the Undertaker win time after time at wrestlemania.
I was in elementary school, first grade, 7 years old when the undertaker made his debut.
In that time I had went through middle school.
Went through high school.
Got my first job.
Trained to be a prowrestler.
Wrestled for 10 years.
Got married.
Bought a house.
And in my 30s I went to my first wrestlemania
And saw the Undertaker lose.
The silence was the most eerily earned silence I had ever felt.
Watching undertaker lose live, legit hurt. Me and my brother always loved Kane and Undertaker. And seeing the end of the streak was like having a end to our own brotherhood.
😢 that’s incredible, I’m so glad I’m learning more about the impact he had on people.
the graveyard match with aj was a great way to end the story that called back to all the different gimmicks over his career
I can't stop crying, tears just don't stop after watching this video. Only a true taker fan could feel what I'm feeling right now.
💞
He did a good video, but he actually left out a lot of key things. Most notably being that the character of The Undertaker had a "kayfabe"(in storyline reality) brother, who was equally as powerful in the supernatural arts as he is. When The Undertaker made his debut, he was called "Kane, The Undertaker". The "Kane" part was soon dropped, but would come back into the story later on.
In the "real world", Mark Callaway had met another wrestler in Jim Cornette's territory by the name of Glenn Jacobs. He was briefly mentioned in this video as Dr. Isaac Yankem DDS. It was Callaway(Undertaker) who got him signed to the WWF in the first place. He got stuck with a couple of bad gimmicks, but someone suggested that he could be repackaged as The Undertaker's younger brother, Kane. This, in my opinion, turned out to be one of the most fantastic long term storylines in Pro Wrestling history.
To put it briefly, the Undertaker's manager, Paul Bearer(real name William Moody) had worked at the funeral parlor that Undertaker's parents owned. Moody was indeed a licensed embalmer/funeral parlor worker in real life. Back to "kayfabe"; Bearer was apprenticing with Undertaker's parents while in college. As he returned to the parlor one day, he found it in the process of being burned to the ground. Undertaker's parents were killed in the fire, and it was believed that Undertaker's younger brother Kane was also killed in it. Bearer deceived Undertaker, and secreted Kane off to a hidden location and raised him in the "dark arts", the same "dark arts" he instilled into the Undertaker to give him the supernatural powers. When, after a few years, Undertaker became a "babyface"(good guy/fan favorite) and dumped Paul Bearer, he revealed Kane to the world. The masked monster(who is legit slightly bigger than Undertaker) showed up, and "we were off to the races", so to speak. Incredible storytelling. The reason Kane wore a mask and near full body suit was because he was allegedly burned badly in the fire.
I had the pleasure of meeting William Moody(aka Paul Bearer) at a local wrestling event. I have a picture of my wife and I with him, and a couple of autographs. In real life, he was a wonderful man. I actually became an e-mail based "pen-pal" with him all the way until his death. He was such an insightful man, with a long history of doing the best he could in whatever situation he faced. No doubt he imparted that on Mark Callaway(Undertaker), and likely Glenn Jacobs(Kane) as well. He had an infectious personality, and he loved to laugh and interact with his fans. Despite his "demonic/satanic" persona in the ring, he was a very religious man in reality.
Fun fact: The Undertaker officially retired 30 years to the day from his WWF debut, during a broadcast of the same event(Survivor Series) that he first showed up at. It was very fitting. His last actual match was called a "Cinematic Match", that took place at WrestleMania in 2020. It was filmed over 2 nights, as the pandemic caused no fans to actually be in attendance. The funny thing about it, is that he was willing to "lose" the match to help put over his opponent, A.J. Styles... but Styles insisted that he lose, and allow the Undertaker to leave on a victory(which is almost unheard of in wrestling). It was actually a very fitting end to his career. Styles was simply thrilled that he would be the final victim of "The Dead Man".
If you can get the WWE Network for a month or two, I highly recommend watching the few Undertaker documentaries they have available. You can also watch some of his matches, as well.
I don't care what anyone says, he is legit the greatest legend that pro wrestling will ever have. He always put others ahead of himself. As much as his in ring character would "no sell" what his opponents did to him, he would allow them time to look good, and help elevate them. Especially after he was established within the company.
Thanks so much for sharing John, it is posts like these that win non fans over.
I love that Undertaker not only cared about his own career but brought people up with him. I'll have to look into Kane, his story sounds interesting.
I'm so glad that you told me all this info about William Moody. I did shrug him off a bit because I found him a bit too ridiculous but I have enjoyed reading more about the real person.
So sad that his last match was without a crowd but what a memorable way to finish off his career.
I'll look into getting it when the kids are back at school and I have a bit more time on my hands.
Thanks again.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 My pleasure! I have been a wrestling fan since I was 3 years old(1970), as my family had been wrestling fans going back to the 1950s. When I was little, we would all gather around the TV(we only had one) to watch the WWWF show on Saturday evening. By the time the 80s rolled around, it had gotten "too far away" from the content that my grandmother and her brother enjoyed, so it was basically me watching alone. Also, my "rebellious side had started coming out, so I was cheering on the "bad guys". But, essentially, I've been a wrestling fan for over 50 years(I turn 55 next month).
I first saw Mark Calaway on some bootleg VHS tapes from his time in Japan. I was absolutely shocked that a guy his size(6'9'-6'10) could move around the ring like a guy much smaller/lighter than him. When I got to see him in WCW, I was hooked on him as a performer, although his "gimmick" wasn't the best. When he debuted in the WWF as The Undertaker.... I knew right then that he was money. THAT was the right gimmick for him. I loved it from the moment I first saw it. As he continued to evolve the character and the story, I couldn't get enough. When Kane was introduced, that sealed the deal on Glenn Jacobs. He, too, had hit a "money" character. It was such great storytelling, and I loved every minute of it. This particular storyline, I literally could talk about for HOURS on end. Maybe because, in a few ways, it relates to my own life(short of the patricide, that is). But I had siblings I was unaware of until much later in life, my parents.... well, my father was dead,(he died when I was a year old) and my mother was out of my life(and she died in 1994). I had not seen her since I was 4 years old, and I'm told that I had no idea who she even was. But I digress....
I'm going to post a few links I think you would enjoy.
The channel "Wrestling With Andy" did a nice, if short, look at Kane's career. Here is a link to that video: ruclips.net/video/XTDCyVPlYIg/видео.html

Lmaooo I'm out here tearing up within the first minute ,Taker is def my all time fav wrestler and when that happened everyone was in shock 😭
Sorry for the tears, he seems like a real legend!
I started watching wrestling in 1998 because of the undertaker... I had the biggest teenage crush on him... So many describe him as scary... I thought he was so hot! Then I got into the storylines, became fans of other guys as well and became a long time fan... I had posters all over my walls, bought all kinds of merch, one of my first tattoos was an undertaker symbol. When the streak ended I felt hurt.. it felt personal. Its crazy the emotion these guys can make you feel through their method of storytelling.
People are saying check out his hell in a cell match with Mankind in 98 but I'd recommend starting with his series of matches with Mankind in 96. IMO that year with Mankind really rejuvenated the Undertaker character and brought it to a new level. Most of his feuds before then were with big lumbering monsters and Taker really had to work his ass off to even make those matches presentable. But in 96 he started his feud with Mankind and that really helped his character turn a corner. The hell in a cell match in 98 is really the closing match of their amazing arch.
Excellent thank you, I think I’ll appreciate 98 more having seen the build up first.
Just discovered your channel. Longtime fan of the WWE. Trying to explain this to non-fans has been amusing, to say the least. The Undertaker was in a class by himself.
Cheer:they like your gimmick and are interested in you
Boo:they hate your gimmick and are interested in you
Silence:they aren't interested in you and don't care about you
Love this! I’ll keep it in mind, thanks for sharing.
As a fan i can say i'm loving seeing the interest of non fans discovering this form of entertainment and treating it wich as much respect as you "Non wrestling fan" Has become my go to this days.
I just found this video but im glad to see there's a couple more on this channel so i still have a while of entertainment to end my day on.
Bes of wishes for you and your channel 😊
So one thing, Kane/Glenn Jacobs, despite it seems absurd that he's in politics, it actually makes perfect sense. The man is brilliant and always has been. He had trouble fitting in with the rest of the WWE roster due to the topics he found interest in compared to everyone else.
All hail Mayor Kane
They're coming back to Australia in 2024!
AAAAAAAALLL HAAAAAAAILL THE DAAAARK LOOOOORD UUUUUUUNERTAAAAKER!!!!
The Undertaker is my all time favorite! I saw him live several times, and every time it was always so powerful. He always had the crowd completely in his hands! The first time I saw him live, was also my first live event, Wrestlemania 9....bummer!!! Lol.
Why was Wrestlemania 9 a bummer? Did he lose?
@@inbedwithmovies3228 No, he "won", but Wrestlemania 9 is generally regarded as the worst Wrestlemania of all time. I used to live in San Diego, CA, so Nevada was only a 4-5 hour drive. Los Angeles is an even shorter drive, at about 2 1/2 hours; so the other 2 Wrestlemanias I attended were both there: Wrestlemania 12, and 21.
@@deanderose4931 Oh. So your first event was the worst of all time but you went back for more 😂 That is dedication.
Also, thanks for explaining the distances for me-I had a general idea but had never looked them up.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 Not so much worst event, just worst Wrestlemania! San Diego didn't get a lot of WWF/WWE live events.
Loved the video The Undertaker is a legend and an icon I enjoyed your reaction to him and also you're very beautiful ❤️
Thanks so much for the support. I agree - he's amazing! Glad to be learning more of his story.
Like the narrator, I also grew up watching the undertaker as a kid through to adulthood, because of the whole global pandemic happening, the Undertaker didn't have the send off he truly deserved ( in front of the fans who loved him) but what the narrator doesn't mention is that even when going out shopping or out to dinner or what not, if a fan came up to him he still kept in his character when interacting with that fan, true legend for sure!
Such a shame. Maybe when everything settles down, he can be brought back, even to referee a match? He deserves to be shown the love.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 I don't think he will now, it would have been great him having a last wrestling match in front of the crowd n all but sadly his last day's came to an underwhelming close to no audience due to the whole pandemic 😑
@@richardbremner1284 Another experience this pandemic has stolen.
yes he did get to choose when he lost the title and to whom . lots of wrestlers who are the main character get to help create their storylines
That would be so much fun. They wok hard to get to the top and their reward is creative input 👏
20:08 I never noticed this until now, but when he says it's littered with people consumed by their demons, they showed Chris Benoit. That is incredibly heavy and if you don't know why I suggest looking up about his death.
Just so you know, since 2002 yes actually the WWE has held events/tours approximately once per year all across Australia (my country too, btw).
Right up til 2019 in fact - though obviously covid has complicated things recently.
Hello fellow Aussie! I'm SO excited for them to come back, though after the past few years, it is going to feel strange being around that many people again.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 Primarily appealing to something of a 'niche' market, it's rarely advertised on mainstream channels. Maybe 'the Project' might make mention of it when it's in town, or 'Rove Live' back in the day (he actually participated in one of the early WWE events being a fan himself).
Usually payTV (Foxtel Sports in particular) is/was the place to catch WWE on our TV - but generally the WWE now has its own specialised streaming service online (like everything else these days).
I recall on Sept 11, 2001, it just so happened that Rove was about to interview a retired big name (Bret Hart) in the very next segment after he cut to a commercial break -
but I never got to see it as it was right in the middle of that commercial break that the nonstop live news of the planes hitting the NYC towers broke...
and as shocking as that was obviously (I was 19 at the time) I was actually equally annoyed at never getting to actually see that interview..!!
@@MrEAus Ah yes, I used to watch Rove but can’t say I’m a fan of The Project. I haven’t had Foxtel in years. I guess it was right under my nose the whole time but I didn’t pay attention to it.
Maybe the interview is on RUclips?
I was 13 and was hyperventilating because my mum made me go to school the next day and I was worried we’d be next. Very eerie day/s at school after that.
Wrestling oh my gosh what a beautiful thing! There’s so much history in it. “The Monday night wars” and beyond. It can bring you on the edge of you seat 💺 one moment and bring tears to your eyes 👀 the next. Welcome to the family.
ruclips.net/video/VYvMOf3hsGA/видео.html here’s another video!!
Thank you Brent, glad to have finally given it a chance.
Thanks - I already reacted to Wrestling isn’t Wrestling. ☺️
"Did he get to choose when to win and when to lose?"
Mark Calloway (The Undertaker) might have been able to do that, but I never heard of him doing so. He was however the leader of the locker room. That basically meant that he could keep the stars in line. If stars had a problem with each other then he would solve it - aggressively. If stars threatened the business in any way then he would solve it - aggressively. A famous example is the main event of Wrestlemania 14. It was Shawn Michaels defending his title against Stone Cold Steve Austin. At the time, Michaels was an arrogant son of a gun, and he had hinted that he wouldn't drop the belt to Austin. Calloway had told Michaels that if Michaels didn't drop the belt then the two of them would have words. In fact, Calloway watched the main event from behind the curtain entrance and he was taping up his fists ready to kick Michael's behind if Michaels carried through with his threat. However, Michaels dropped the belt to Austin. After that, Calloway untaped his hands and walked away. If Michaels had carried through with his threat then Calloway would physically assaulted him.
"The Undertaker is genuinely terrifying."
I was nearly 14 years old when I saw The Undertaker debut on pay per view. Let me tell you, I was on the edge of my seat. Who was this guy? He was so cool! I didn't know anything about him. I knew that he had Brother Love as his manager - who I despised. I knew that he was called The Undertaker. I knew that he was a heel. I knew nothing else but I was an immediate fan.
The Undertaker had a 30 year career that no one will ever replicate. He won multiple titles. He put butts in seats. He main evented numerous times. Here's whats funny. When he was in WCW he was told that he would never ever be a super star. He goes to the WWF and boom he becomes a super star.
_Seeing someone mold from a "skeptic" to wanting to go to an event in 30 minutes. This vid is so good. Been wanting to comment over and over just to explain things but I'll restrain._
He was so effective as the character growing up I used to have actual nightmares about the Undertaker
🫣 I think he’d have done the same to me
If your going to watch any undertaker matches, I'd recommend either undertaker vs mankind hell in a cell, simply for being one of the most physically demanding and brutal matches I've seen. The other being undertaker vs Shawn Michaels wrestlemania 25, for being one of the best matches of all time in terms of performance, story telling and meaning in my opinion.... Or maybe do both🤷♂️😅. Keep up the good work👍
Thank you, they’re actually both already on my to watch list 😊
The Shock master John Tenta better known as Earthquake when he fell that was supposed to be his big reveal. The reason he fell was the wall wasn't 100% breakaway he didn't know and tripped over a 2x4 at the bottom
Poor guy. One of the crew screwed up big time.
Wrong Natural Disaster. Fred Ottman aka Typhoon or Tugboat had the ignominy of the Shockmaster Gimmick. John Tenta meanwhile was trying to get a Shark gimmick over
@@TGSpectre1 yeah I realized that after my BAD
The Undertaker is synonymous with professional wrestling in my eyes. The man spent my entire life and then some putting himself in harms way for our entertainment and to tell a story for us.
And backstage he helped so many wredtlers find their eay and make names for themselves. A locker room leader and the consumate professional.
Some may have better ring work, some may be better on the mic, but nobody was ever a full package professional wrestler like Undertaker.
I love this guy's videos so much. And you're going to love Asuka. She had a hall of fame-worthy career before ever even setting foot in a WWE/NXT ring. Oh and since you've done two of the Eye Patch trilogy, I suggest the third, which is Villains in Wrestling: Making People Hate You ruclips.net/video/bYKOw8Ao9t8/видео.html
It's very good and takes a in-depth look at wrestling history all the way back to the Golden Era.
His content is incredible.
I will be reacting to his video on Villains soon.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 I love to hear it.
I absolutely loved this reaction. The Undertaker is an integral part of professional wrestling.
Also, you should react to How Eddie Guerrero became a Smackdown Legend by WWE themselves. I think you would enjoy the video as Eddie Guerrero was a staple for The Ruthless Aggression Era and also helped Smackdown be what it is today. Much love
Thanks for the support :) I have added that to my list too.
22:36 Yes. Wrestlemania is considered the superbowl of wrestling. Its the biggest wrestling event of all time.
Oh yes, I forgot about the SuperBowl.
So you go All Out for wrestlemania?
If you liked the first 2 Super Eyepatch Wolf videos, you've got to watch his video on wrestling heels. You'll learn so much about villains in pro wrestling and how even that can be charming. As for Undertaker match recommendations, I'd personally suggest Undertaker vs Batista from WrestleMania 23 and their Last Man Standing match from Backlash 2007. Keep up the good work, and welcome to the Wrestling fandom family. 😁
Thank you - his video on heels is absolutely on me list to watch. I'm not sure when to do it though, my wrestling videos keep getting taken down for copyright issues so I'll have to try another way of putting them up and letting them stay up.
I will check it out Wrestlemania 23 and Backlash 2007 :)
I think you should react to The Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels at Wrestlemania 25. The greatest Wrestlemania Match ever.
Thank you, I will absolutely be doing this. I actually picked up a bulk lot of old wrestling dvds from FB marketplace and that is one of the dvds.
Wow AWESOME 👍😁💙
Tetsuya Naito is a tragic story with a great ending. He made one of the only DEADLY mistakes a pro wrestler can make with the fans in japan.... he TOLD THEM he was "shuyaku" which means "main character" or "top guy", instead of PROVING IT TO THEM in the ring and being annointed Shuyaku by the crowd. they sat on their hands, just "impress me, I DARE YOU" until he fled to mexico for a couple years. he comes back from mexico with swagger, a new look, a new attitude, and a stable of colorful eclectic badasses known as "los ingobernables de japon"; the ungovernables of japan. He's experienced now, so no more pandering to the crowd to get with him, he's "tranquilo". he sweats NOTHING and NOBODY.... and the japanese fans LOVE HIM FOR IT. he can spit in the ring, cheat, throw the title belt around, be as disrespectful as he wants (all things that the fans REALLY DON'T LIKE to the point it can get wrestlers fined or dis-invited from new japan pro wrestling)... because now he IS SHUYAKU.
Undertaker and shawn michaels put on the greatest match of all time....a must see
I’ve been meaning to watch that for months.
A character like Taker sort of writes it self. Mark has absolutely Done an amazing job all these years.
I’ve got to agree with you.
The Undertaker was the absolute GOAT of wrestling.
Undertaker is GOATED.
my favorite wrestler of all time.
Btw I'm a new subscriber 😊
He just seems really interesting. And dedicated. Welcome ☺️
Pre-Covid, the WWE would visit Australia once a year. Presumably they will again when it is feasible.
No kidding. How did I not know that? Oh well, I will be there the next time they are here.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 Oh, I just posted pretty much the same comment myself.
The first time was in the MCG, and the main moment I remember is the Melbourne crowd chanting at Chris Jericho that he was a "wanker"... y'know a word us Aussies use constantly, but being American he didn't actually know what it meant..! XD
@@MrEAus 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I don't know who Chris Jericho is but what a way to be introduced to the Aussies LOL. Was it a sell out crowd? Amazing!
@@inbedwithmovies3228 No, of course, I wasn't expecting Jericho's name to mean anything to ya, it was the 'Aussie-ism' that was my key detail..!
Most wrestlers alternate a few times between 'heel' and 'face' throughout their careers, and though obviously a 'heel' back then, he's stood the test of time, and decades later he's now one of the more respected/liked veterans (though no longer with the WWE).
He's also in a heavy metal band too incidentally (though I doubt that'll assist you in identifying him!).
Don't know if it was literally sold out, but yes, the MCG event (Australia's first) did seem to be quite packed.
Being much wider 'horizontally' than the usual wrestling arena, each wrestler had to walk/run a lot further to and from the ring than normal - that alone would've tested the cardio of the average person..!
Undertaker should be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this year and should be the headliner. He deserves it after all these long years.
Nice, not that I know much about wrestling or his career yet but from what I do know, I agree with you.
Undertaker already is in the HOF.
I'd recommend starting off with the full feud against Yokozuna. While I agree that the Hell in a Cell vs Mankind and the Wrestlemania match vs Shawn Michaels are definitely must watches, that feud against Yoko is what first put him... beyond wrestling, for lack of a better way to phrase it. It was back during his original Deadman gimmick, with Paul Bearer and the urn. Stuck in the middle of all of that is the most bizarre twist, Ted Dibiase (the guy who originally "brought him into the WWF") bringing back a fake Undertaker. While the Undertaker vs. Underfaker wasn't exactly the best match in and of itself, the storyline leading up to it was fantastic. The two matches against Yoko, however, were great. Yoko was a deceptively agile 565 lb. "Japanese sumo wrestler" (Even though he as actually Samoan, and one of Taker's best friends backstage until his death), and Taker has said multiple times that Yoko was his favorite opponent. That was many years ago, so that may have changed towards the end of his career.
Also, as a side note, if you see a Samoan in the WWF/E, they're probably related to the Rock. Either a cousin, or an uncle. Haku, Barbarian, Yokozuna, The Headshrinkers (Samu and Fatu/Rikishi), the Usos, the whole family. And by all accounts, they're all wonderfully kind, warm hearted people..... unless you're an idiot that gets drunk and tries to fight them in a bar. Then they're your worst nightmare. I recommend reacting to "Wrestling Legends tell Haku Fight Stories."
Thank you for your helpful comment. I will definitely check out the Undertaker VS Yokozuna feud.
I think it’s hilarious that they labelled a Samoan as Japanese.
Are they actually related or is it how everyone calls each other family?
Oh trust me, I’d never pick a drunken fight with a Samoan 🤣 having said that, I’ve never met one that I didn’t get along with.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 Oh, they're all actually related. The Anoa'i family. Check them out on wikipedia.
25:30 They do in fact normally include Australia in their touring, although it has been a few years since their last event held in AU (last time was pre-pandemic, 2019). There's talks this year though that they are negotiating some future events. The news article I skimmed about it mentioned Perth as the likely destination.
They do sometimes go to Australia in the Super ShowDown event, last one was in 2020, the 2021 one was canceled due to covid
Might be worth a trip to Melbourne when they come back.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 Undertaker actually Main evented that one too. the 2018 Super Show-Down.
@@melvinwren ohhh thank you, I’ll have to look it up.
22:34 yeah wrestlemania is like the Super Bowl of professional wrestling. It’s where all the major storylines come to an end and typically only the biggest stars in the wrestling business get to have matches there.
Think of it as the season finale of the WWE and the WWE is the biggest company in wrestling, So they pack out like a football stadium with like 70 to 80,000 fans and put on the most sought after matches with the biggest stars
Incredible!
Here some matches you should check out I’ll give you 5 that I think that are the best….you can find most of these online without a subscription
5) Bryan Danielson v Hangman Page (AEW Championship, Winter Is Coming 2022)
4) Rey Mysterio v Eddie Guerrero (Halloween Havoc 1997)
3) Sasha Banks v Bayley (NXT Takeover Brooklyn)
2) Shawn Michaels v Undertaker ( WrestleMania 25)
1) Triple X v Americas Most Wanted (6 sides of steel for the TNA Tag Team Championships, Tag Team match inside of a steel cage)
Thanks so much, this is very helpful!
27:58 i was in a room of stunned people, me happy, arms up, yelling for them to announce it because there was silence after the pinfall.
He ring announcers didnt announce a winner for at least 30 seconds afternthe pinfall.
Great show. I believe WWE is touring Australia next year (2024?). Dont quote me.
There is no word to describe him
Cape Fear is very much worth a watch.
Excellent, thank you.
the undertake is the main and my 2nd favorite wrestler of all time
Who is your favourite?
If you decide to check out any of his matches, the first one I would say has to be either against Mankind in the Hell in a Cell from King of the Ring '98, or against Shawn Michaels in the Hell in a Cell from Bad Blood '97. Both were absolute classics.
Oh and by the way regarding Robert De Niro, if the only movie you've seen him in is Meet The Parents, you're in for a hell of a journey with his catalogue of work. I'd imagine you won't be disappointed.
Thanks, I’ve put them both on my list.
At the moment I have Goodfellas coming up and I’ve added Cape Fear.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 Great choices. I'll be sure to look out for those.
@@TheNextStep851 Thank you :)
Oddly enough this was the video that popped up on my recommended list today so I went back and binged this whole little series.
That absolutely was a real reticulated Python. Jake 'The Snake' Roberts had a gimmick where his finishing move would knock his opponent out and then he would put his snake on top of them.
As far as if he got to choose when he won or lost not especially, but he was known to often argue in favor of losing if he felt it was beneficial to the other guy's character or image to beat him at that time.
If you come back to these look up JR Interviews Mankind (it was aired in 4 parts)
Undertaker was one of my favorite wrestlers for sure 😊 and mil mascaras man with a thousand mask 🎭 for sure
The masked wrestlers freak me out.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 ya totally get that
Mr Comment here with my daily comment, even though I don't like wrestling.
Comments are good for the RUclips algorithm, makes your channel more likely to be suggested
Haha thanks Jerry, nice use of some keywords there. 😂🤞👏 I’m on 3 hours sleep so the best I can come up with is “you’re the bestest!”
The undertaker is my personal favorite wrestler, his story is one of legendary status.
If you intend on watching some of his matches I'd recommend: Undertaker vs Shawn Michael WrestleMania 25 + 26, Undertaker vs Kurt Angle No Way Out 2006, and Undertaker vs Mankind King of the Ring 1998.
Also this same narrator made a video on wrestling "heels" or villains and that is a really good one into the bad guy concept.
Thanks, they’re all on my list!
Its not even the fact that the Shockmaster "fell on his fookin arse" (as my fellow Northerner Davey Boy Smith can be heared saying at that moment)
Its the fact hes also wearing a bloody spraypainted stormtrooper helmet that also makes it hillariously bad 😂
He is absolutely my Favorite!
I can see why!
@@inbedwithmovies3228 I love that lipstick too! Wait till you see Roman Reigns your gonna melt lol
Haha do you mean mine? They've stopped making my favourite colour so I'm experimenting with others.
Oh yes, I'm looking forward to him. Yesterday I told a girlfriend of mine to look him up. We were both giggling like school girls lol.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 yes yours lol that’s a great match for you
@@sabrinawalker1421 oh lol For a minute I couldn’t remember if there were female wrestlers in this video 😂 but anyway, thank you very much. It’s kind of you to say.
The undertaker is now a hall farmer
It seems like he deserves it
Mark definitely had input on anything to do with his character/persona. He lived his gimmick, always dressing in dark colors and being cold in interviews pretending he was a mortician. If you have not seen it you should try to see the WWE Documentary series Undertaker: The Last Ride. It really covers his last few years in the business. Wrestlemania is like the World Cup championship or the Superbowl in football. It is the biggest and most hyped show of the year for WWE. WWE does do some events in Australia from time to time. Not sure what city or cities they visit.
Real snake? Yes. Jake Roberts was famous for carrying them.
❌❌❌
yes i remember the snakes,check out the night in 1991 or 1992 when he had the macho man tied in the ropes,and brought out his king cobra out and had it bite the macho man
@@chriscrane5327 😭 noooooo, are you serious?!
@@inbedwithmovies3228 i am serious about it,the fans were in shock,and rowdy roddy piper was there commentating that night and he says hes afraid of snakes so he didnt even try to get in there to stop him,and the cobra was clamped onto his arm and chewing on it cuz blood was coming out
Not only the Undertaker lasted WWE for 30 years he is The Real Deadman Walking.
When he got injured like broken foot, broken nose, concussion and many injuries that I forget to mention and still continue the match. Why? because he loved wrestling business.
Also you should watch Dark Side Of the Ring Series of Chris Benoit Tragedy, Owen Hart Final Days, Plane Ride From Hell or Etc. :)
That’s incredible, now that is passion!
I’m not sure if I can watch anything with Chris Benoit or Owen Hart 🥺
Undertaker was My favorite As a Kid But currently Asuka is my favorite and plus I have a crush on her
She seems very charismatic. I can’t wait to learn her story.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 her style is amazing but The reason why I have a crush on her is because of her smile
Man 8nyeRs keep and instill cry thinking of Taker losing the streak he is my lifelong idol and that will never change
Sorry it ended that way
While they might be the biggest globally. Don't forget that WWE are not the only game in town. As far as I know Australia has a indi wrestling scene so going to live events is doable, plus to anyone reading this please support you local wresting scene for the health of the industry as a whole.
Also being from Aus while not cheap a cheaper alterative for that big match feel might be going to a mega show in Japan as it is closer to you :)
Thank you, I've looked up our local wrestlers. There are some from my city that I will check out when case numbers settle down. As much as I would LOVE to see Japanese wrestlers live in action, I am terrified of flying (haven't been on a plane since 2013) so that is out of the question.
there is a current wwe diva that is from Australia,she retired years ago but recently came back,not sure the city or what her real name is but on cameras shes called Emma,so find her and see if you see her,and yes that snake you saw is real and he also pulled out a king cobra and had it bite the macho man randy savage in 1991
Nice reaction. 12:10 you definitely should react to Halloween (1978) at some point.
Thanks George. I was planning too. Mainly because it is referenced a few times in Scream.
You should whatch The End of The Streak by WrestlingBios. It's a more detailed look on that last story. It's a good companion video to this
Awesome. Thanks for the recommendation, I’ve popped it on the list.
U need to react on Kane, thats the undertaker brother one of the scariest wrestlers ever
Yes, I will be for sure!
I Love your reaction to this. Your so cute and pretty. Undertaker was in a league all by himself. You should watch his first match, it was 4 man tag team, then I would watch all his Wrestlemania matches. That super tall guy was the Giant Gonzalez. He was 7'7" ❤
Thanks for watching. I don’t know what a 4 man tag team is but it sounds rude lol.
Oh so it was a different wrestler. 7’7! WOW!!!
@@inbedwithmovies3228 Your Welcome! He died in 2010. He was only 46 years old. His weight was 460lbs. He was originally was from Argentina and played basketball in the beginning.
@@randysheer7814 oh, so young. Poor guy.
There was an Australian event in 2018 called super showdown, other than that there's individual shows every 1-2 years
wrestling is like opera with all the theatrics
Hahaha love that description
Few wrestling matches have made me cry like a baby, (and I'm a 30-year-old man), but if when Undertaker lost the streak at WrestleMania you remained impassive, emotionless and call yourself a wrestling fan, you are not to me. human. Those who have approached wrestling now cannot understand what it felt like in that instant.
Hello! Cape of Fear with De Niro is definitely worth to watch!
Awesome, thank you. It’s on the list.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 You're welcome!😊 Thanks for your response and have a great week!👍🏻
@@乙爪s乃웃乇 you’re welcome and thank you too. Have a great week 😊
@@inbedwithmovies3228 Thank you very much!😊 Greetings Samantha
Tap Out Corner made a video on the funniest bloopers of the year, i think you'd like it
I’ve popped it on the list, thanks Rafael.
You should watch the promo from Shawn Michaels vs The Undertaker Wrestlemania 26
Hi Mags, is that 25 or 26?
Yess!! You really should react to Cape Fear!!! It's a great movie!! HIGHLY
Recommend!!!!
Ok great, it’s now on the list.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 Yayyyy..... I feel HEARD!!! 😆 Can't wait to see how you like it!!
You've got to watch the whole Undertaker/Kane saga.
The Undertaker and his brother were my favorites. I didnt care who came out if it wasnt those 2 i didnt care. I respected no others the way i respected those two, to this very day
WWE does go to Australia from time to that. That being said the next 2 days is Wrestlemania and you can watch it on tv.
he didnt get to pick when to win or lose but Vince would consider takers views on who should beat him quite a bit. Vince didnt always agree but Taker chose what was best at the right time
Good on him, he obviously made the right decisions.
Undertaker greatest character in wrestling
I'm really loving him.
It`s 2 weeks later and not a single like or comment? OoooKkkk. Seriously, I liked the Undertaker and my brother liked Kane so we always bought stuff Undertaker and Kane related. I`m 57 and he`s 45 so we grew up with wrestling. The Golden Years!
What do you mean? I’ve responded to your comment from 12 days ago, which is all I can see until this one.
@@inbedwithmovies3228 Have you eyes that do not see? Whatever the comment it may have came from my brother on here. I`m not disrespectful.
13:43 that handsome guy is Randy Orton
Oh, thank you. His name sounds familiar.
Watch undertaker vs hbk WrestleMania 25
Yes, I will be watching this for sure!
WWE goes to Australia, just not very often. Its been quite a while
Hopefully not too many more years before they’re able to come back.
yes that was a real snake and a wrestler named jake the snake roberts and he would after winning matches would put the snake on top of the wrestlers he beat
Pretty cool but still ewww!!
@@inbedwithmovies3228 yeah watching it growing up and seeing him do it was exactly that
Sad at the end
I agree
It's pronounced "Ah-Skuh". Like how Sasuke is pronounced "Sauce-Kay".
Wrestling is awesome. So is Asuka. She's one of the greats in Joshi wrestling. Legendary.
Undertaker debut in 90 not 91 91 just after his rookie year is probably the start to the epic 30year story
The whole good guy/ bad guy thing can be a little much at times.
I think that is why I stayed away for so long, I just thought it was over the top pretend fighting and I couldn't understand how anyone would enjoy it.
Counselor...
Come out come out
Wherever you arrrrrree!
Mma boxing and all kinds of martial arts fights are always interesting to see though sometimes they can get quite brutal. Hi hope you are doing good during 2022 may it be better than 2021 lol. Maybe for one of your next videos you could watch the movie George of the jungle and the sequel movie George of the jungle 2 as a suggestion. You are an amazing person and everyone always loves your videos be sure to keep up the good work and keep doing what you love to do.
no one is ready for Asuka
