The Undertaker

Pop culture expert extraordinaire William Bruce West squares up with Tom this episode to talk about one of the biggest names in the wrasslin' business -- THE UNDERTAKER! Join as we take a look at The Phenom's 30-year career with all its highs, lows and sometimes just outright bizarre moments. Listen along as we grapple with our love of the character...and our oft-complex feelings about the man beneath the Stetson hat, Mark Calaway. Along the way, we also ponder why Brother Love was so red, whether blogs are dead and talk about how Will's journey to the USSR inspired him to become the media mogul that he is today.    Songs featured in this episode:   Intro: Mercyful Fate – A Dangerous Meeting    Outro: Tangerine Dream – Force Majeure   Follow Lupine Transmissions on Instagram @lupinetransmissions    Check out Will's website at www.westweekever.com       Bonus: Here's some of the matches we discuss during the show!    The American Badass Debuts -- Judgement Day 2000   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzCSQR4C-qc      Undertaker vs Jeff Hardy, ladder match -- RAW, July 1, 2002   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_ANV_KiB9Q      Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels --Wrestlemania 25   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjZkxVYBVjY
