182 - Super ShowDown 2019

It's the dream match that turned into a nightmare! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their journey through every Undertaker PPV match as they cover the debacle between The Undertaker and Goldberg from Super Showdown 2019. These two icons led their respective companies on the battlefields of the Monday Night Wars. And though we all would have wanted to see this match a few years earlier, it still gave us goosebumps to see the holders of the two most legendary streaks in wrestling face off for their first ever match. Unfortunately, everything that could possibly go wrong did go wrong after that! We'll discuss the bloody miscue from Goldberg, the many times this match should have been stopped, the Jacked-Up-Hammer, and all the other cringeworthy moments that got crammed into under ten minutes. Along the way we'll also cover The Undertaker missing his first WrestleMania in 19 years, his "ceremonial burial" of Elias the very next night on Raw, the mistimed promo from Taker that might have been an omen of things to come for this match, WWE legends analyzing this match, Goldberg's bizarre warning to The Dead Man, the rare club Taker joined with the outcome of this match, Vince McMahon's confusing affection for these old-timers, and so much more. Download, enjoy, and Taker Easy!
