The 10 Scariest Moments In The Undertaker's WWE Tenure
By BENJAMIN FALBO
Crashing Savage’s Wedding
During his brief alliance with Jake “The Snake” Roberts, the Undertaker and Roberts wrecked a wedding. As the happy couple of “Macho Man” Randy Savage and Miss Elizabeth began opening their wedding gifts, Elizabeth opened a gift box and was greeted by Roberts’ pet python, while Roberts and ‘Taker attacked Savage from behind.
Dying at the ‘94 Rumble
After Yokozuna and several other heels forced Undertaker inside a casket, the lights went down and 'Taker was visible inside the casket on the big screen. He opened his eyes and stated to the crowd, “I will not rest... in peace,” before his “ghost” rose up from behind the screen and floated up towards the rafters.
Showing Diesel his Future
En route to the WrestleMania XII matchup between Kevin Nash and Undertaker, Paul Bearer delivered a strange gift to Diesel on the March 18 episode of “Raw” — a coffin on wheels for Diesel to open up for himself. Inside was a disturbingly accurate dead dummy of himself, with pale skin and a plastic sheet covering him.
Throwing Mankind
The audience had the premonition of something sinister was about to happen when Undertaker and Mankind exchanged blows on top of the Hell in a Cell in 1998. Almost immediately after, ‘Taker threw Foley into the announcer’s desk, which Foley ignored and climbed to the top once again, only to be Choke Slammed through the Cell into the mat.
Being Buried Alive
Although Undertaker has been buried alive a total of four times over the course of his 30-year career, the last time he was put six feet under was during his 2010 rivalry with Kane. In the company’s final Buried Alive match to date, all seemed to be going ‘Taker’s way until the original Nexus, led by Wade Barrett, helped Kane bury his brother.
