10 Most Shocking Things We Learned From WWE Documentaries In 2020
1. The Undertaker's End Of The Streak Blackout
The Last Ride: The Undertaker
One of WrestleMania’s, and arguably wrestling’s, most memorable moments was Brock Lesnar breaking Undertaker’s streak at WrestleMania XXX. Even the famous image of ‘Taker flat on his back as the screen looming above displays the 21-1 graphic is enough to give fans goosebumps. However, the man at the heart of the moment remembers it primarily from watching it back.
Though ‘Taker previously told Stone Cold Steve Austin that a mid-match concussion led to him not recalling anything about the match, the footage itself and the aftermath was shocking.
‘Taker elaborated that even at the later date of the documentary, he didn’t remember the match and wasn’t sure at what point he was concussed. The last memory of the day he could pinpoint was at 3:30 that afternoon. ‘Taker’s wife, and Divas Era icon, Michelle Calaway (née McCool) recalled her husband was unable to remember his name until 4:00am.
