8. The Undertaker Challenged The Godfather To The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ty3bd-h2oOs There are those cool moments when a wrestler peels back the gimmick and you *really* get a sense of the man. Thus, it's notable that "Mark Calaway" took the ALS challenge and that he challenged "Charles Wright." Charles Wright is of course the man who played many characters, including "The Godfather." This of course, begs the question of thinking about who "The Undertaker" would've challenged to get doused by the bucket. Probably Kane, maybe Vince McMahon, too. As well, there's sadly no footage of Charles Wright taking the ALS Challenge, but imagine how entertaining The Godfather and his hoes getting doused by ice-cold buckets of water would've been. "Let's get on board the coooooold train!" Some moments aren't mind-blowing for serious reasons, so let your mind just be blown by the humor of that visual image for a second.
