The Undertaker and Randy Orton's rivalry goes west as The Cowboy gets involved on this week's Talking Taker! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White as they cover they first ever Handicap Caket Match pitting The Dead Man against Randy and his dad Cowboy Bob at No Mercy 2005. If you're thinking it was crazy to see Bob Orton in a PPV main event in 2005 - you're correct! We'll talk about the Hall Of Famer wheezin' his way through not just this match but multiple others on Smackdown at the ripe old age of 54. He's not the only legend getting in on the fun either as "Rowdy" Roddy Piper inexplicably becomes part of this rivalry as well! We'll discuss all this plus cover the fiery post-match antics at No Mercy that left the crowd stunned (well, at least until the Mexicools came out to clean everything up). Plus we'll discuss Randy's retirement fund for The Undertaker, an autographed Taker DVD, some major Smackdown debuts during this time, the Raw Homecoming show, Teddy Long's timely hip-hop references, another call for the "calvary", more life-like mannequins than you can shake a stick at, The Dead Man's complete dominance of this rivalry, a horrifying superplex attempt, and more on this double-wide, double-deep edition of the podcast.
