10 Craziest Things That Ever Happened After WWE Raw Went Off The Air

Booker T The Undertaker

Another Raw night, another post-Raw Spinaroonie segment, with the bulk of the Attitude Era's biggest names colluding to try in vain to tease one out of The Undertaker.

In a lengthy end to an August 2002 Raw, The Undertaker stood down protestations from Goldust, Booker T, The Rock, Triple H, Kane and Vince McMahon himself to do his own version of Booker T's daft pose. Stories later emerged that this was a huge rib at 'The Deadman's expense, with 'Taker trapped in the ring by the cavalcade of characters hoping to use the enormous peer pressure to their advantage.

'The Great One' was the first to add his weight to the cause, again drawing on the crowd's desperation to see something as ridiculous as 'Big Evil'-era Undertaker literally twirling on his own a*se. 'Taker even gloated down the lens that there was no chance he'd get involved, triggering Triple H out to question if he even had 'the b*lls' to do a "Takeroonie". Vince McMahon was next, joining a crew that now also included The Un-Americans for the more traditional heel beatdown.

Undertaker saw his chance for escape and bailed on his bike, disappointingly chasing the villains away after witnessing everyone else give it their best shot.
