The Undertaker Recalls Wrestling 2 Matches After Vince McMahon Scrapped Main Event

WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker shared a light-hearted story from his wrestling career, recalling a moment when he and the late Scott Hall, known then as Razor Ramon, had to improvise a main event match unexpectedly.

During an episode of Booker T’s podcast “Reality of Wrestling,” The Undertaker recounted how the situation unfolded during a televised WWE Championship match between Randy Savage and Ric Flair. As the match progressed, Vince McMahon grew increasingly unhappy with the performance and made a surprising call to end the match prematurely.

In the middle of the match, Vince didn’t like the way the match was going. So he stops the match right in the middle and sent the dark match, who was Razor [Ramon] and I, and he says, ‘Y’all just go until I tell you to go.

Having already competed in a dark match earlier in the night, Undertaker and Hall suddenly found themselves thrust into the main event without any warning or preparation. They had to entertain the crowd while waiting for further instructions from McMahon. Undertaker humorously recalled the physical toll this unexpected performance took on Hall, who began to tire as the match went on.

Poor Scott, man, he is just wearing me, he’s hammering me whack and boom, and he’s so blown up because I ain’t selling shit.

Undertaker joked. As Hall grew more exhausted, he made a humorous plea to Undertaker.

He goes, ‘Taker, can I please put you in a rear chin lock?’ I was like ‘Alright man, alright.’

The impromptu match finally came to an end when they received the signal to finish, leaving Hall visibly worn out.

He was heaving, he was breathing so hard.

The Undertaker recalled with a laugh.

Why Is The Undertaker Concerned For The Modern Generation Of Wrestlers?

The Undertaker spoke about why he is concerned for the current generation of professional wrestlers and said that due to the high levels of athleticism and high-stakes moves that are now more commonplace, he thinks that there is a much higher risk of injury and that over time crowds will become desensitised to the moves and will force wrestlers to try more dangerous moves.
