10 Things We Learned From WWE's Undertaker: The Last Ride (Bonus Chapter)

1. Xavier Woods Gave Him A Gavel

Finally, the gavel.

For some reason, New Day man Xavier Woods approached The Undertaker backstage at a WWE TV taping several years ago and presented him with his very own gavel. Woods wanted 'Taker to use it during 'Wrestler's Court' sessions, but that hasn't happened as of yet.

It says, "Judge Undertaker" on it, and the legend thinks it's one of the cooler gifts he's been given. It was also one hell of a show of respect from one of the younger guys towards someone who has long been considered a locker room leader, and a nod towards a part of the business that has likely changed.

Guys and gals backstage are more likely to fire up their Nintendo Switch/PS4/Xbox One for some gaming fun than joke around in some phoney court room these days. Who knows though, perhaps somebody will stand trial and 'Taker will get to use that customised gavel soon.
