Former WWE wrestler Dennis Knight (who worked as Phineas Godwinn, Mideon and erm..."Naked" Mideon) has recalled seeing The Undertaker tear King Mabel/Viscera to shreds during a heated backstage confrontation.

Knight told 'Monte & Pharaoh' on YouTube that Mabel had earned a reputation for hurting various members of the then-WWF locker room. Famously, the big man hurt Diesel's back at SummerSlam 1995, then shattered 'Taker's orbital bone the same year.

At the 1996 Royal Rumble, the bumbling King Of The Ring winner also injured Knight's tag-team partner Henry O. Godwinn. Dennis was backstage at the show, and he saw The Undertaker taping up his fists and "ripping [Mabel] apart" due to recent in-ring incidents.

The 'King' just stood there and took it. What else could he do? Mabel had no credible defence - he had been hurting almost everybody in his path, and he knew he had to take 'Taker's talking to without speaking up. It'd only get worse if he dared say anything.

This visual was Knight's introduction to the WWF. He likely knew he had to be careful after seeing it.
