10 Shocking REAL Stories Behind Famous Wrestling Scares

Sitting as quite possibly the most controversial showdown ever to grace a Saudi WWE PLE - and really think of the ground that covers - Goldberg and The Undertaker very nearly murdering one another in the middle of Jeddah was already pretty frightening without the knowledge of what was actually going through Da Man and 'Taker's heads at the time.

But the revelation from Big Bill that he genuinely had no clue what was going on after he decided to head-butt a door on his way to the ring makes the entire ensuing encounter even more difficult to watch.

As Goldberg would note on The Pat McAfee Show, a botched ring-post spot would lead to yet another concussion and the icon openly admitting he once again had no idea what was happening around him after the ref asked how he was.

On the other side of the ring, 'Taker would later explain during his The Last Ride docu-series that he was "two inches away from making my wife a widow and my kids fatherless" during the now-infamous botched Jackhammer post-Goldberg concussions.

Simply put, the more you learn about this Saudi debacle, the more horrifying the sub-ten-minute main event gets.
