Former WWE Superstar Says Drinking With The Undertaker Was “One Of The Coolest Parts Of My Life”

Former WWE star Hornswoggle recounted a humorous and nerve-wracking moment from his time on the road, involving a missed cue during a live event match between The Undertaker and Fit Finlay.

Speaking on The Undertaker’s podcast Six Feet Under, Hornswoggle shared how he inadvertently fell asleep under the ring, leading to a delayed and missed spot. The mishap left Hornswoggle scrambling for answers and worried about how Undertaker would react. Turning to Finlay for advice, Hornswoggle found little reassurance.

I find Fit and I go, ‘Fit, what do I do?’ He goes, ‘I don’t know about this one.’

Determined to make amends, Hornswoggle devised a bold plan. Knowing Undertaker’s fondness for Jack Daniels, he quickly arranged for a bottle of whiskey to be delivered as a peace offering.

I knew I was like, ‘I have to buy booze. What does Undertaker like? He likes Jack Daniels, I have to get him Jack Daniels.’ I remember immediately getting a runner to get a bottle of Jack Daniels before we could leave.

To Hornswoggle’s relief, Undertaker accepted the gesture with grace and even turned the incident into a memorable bonding moment.

He had me then sit on the babyface bus to drink the Jack Daniels with him, and that’s like one of the coolest f***ing parts of my life.

Which First-Ever Match Type Involving The Undertaker Was Labelled A “Disaster” By JBL?

JBL recalled how the first-ever Buried Alive Match between The Undertaker and Mankind was a disaster due to the fact that WWE hadn’t planned for just how long it takes to fill a grave with dirt. JBL recalled how after Mankind put Undertaker into the grave some of the heels from backstage came to lend a hand filling in the grave despite their best efforts they’d barely got a foot of dirt in the grave before the match was over, JBL said that it would probably have taken them 7 to 8 hours to fill the grave entirely.
