10 Wrestling Moments That Scared The Sh*t Out Of Fans
7. The Undertaker’s Debut
As the intro stated, there are no clear guidelines for what's allowed to scare the sh*t out of wrestling fans. Very-real injuries like Buff Bagwell's are naturally alarming, but 100% worked frights have similarly chilled ticket-buyers too. For example, the debut of The Undertaker at Survivor Series 1990.
Young kids in the crowd were spooked big time.
Fire up the pay-per-view 32 years on and you'll see some hiding behind their parents - being fair, even some of the adults in attendance for the show were unsure what to make of 'Taker. His stony glare, imposing size and undead appearance certainly made people sit up and take notice.
Wide-eyed reactions and open mouths became a rule of thumb during the gimmick's earliest showings. This is something the WWF made sure to shoot during subsequent appearances for 'The Deadman'. Why not? Fans were definitely freaking the f*ck out when he ambled down the aisle like everyone's worst nightmares.
