139 - One Night Stand: Extreme Rules

The Undertaker competes against Edge in an absolutely insane Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match on this week's Talking Taker! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their journey through every Undertaker PPV match as they cover a match wrestling fans never thought they'd see The Dead Man participate in at One Night Stand: Extreme Rules 2008. It's a pivotal match in the rivalry between Taker and Edge's Familia as The Phenom is forced to put his nearly 20 year career on the line to get a shot at the vacant World Heavyweight Championship. Along with our in-depth analysis of this incredibly memorable match, we'll also cover the nuclear heat Vickie Guerrero was garnering around this time, another squash of Chavo, a epic botch-fest on Smackdown, how the flop of the 2008 Indiana Jones movie tied into this build, Edge's fantastic trolling of Taker, Hawkins and Ryder earning their paychecks with some wild table bumps, and how this match ripped off one of our classic backyard wrestling matches. 

 

Plus we also give our immediate reactions to cinematic Boneyard Match between The Undertaker and AJ Styles at this year's WrestleMania 36 - recorded just minutes after we watched the match live! Download, enjoy, and Taker Easy!
