The sensational lack of trust in himself 'Taker was feeling only worsened the closer he crept towards that 'Mania match. Two days before locking up with Reigns, he retreated to WWE's Performance Center for a final workout that'd put his joints, muscles and body in general to the test.

He was sh*t scared of it.

The Undertaker isn't fond of those last-minute sessions, because he's always terrified something will go wrong or he'll break down mentally and panic about performing to the required standard. Hearing him narrate footage of shrugs, bench presses and other routine weight exercises with such a melancholy tone is almost frightening.

48 hours before a match that meant so much to him, one of WWE's most famous sons was agonising over the thought of not being good enough. That should pang the hearts of anyone who has grown up watching him work.
