20 Scariest Wrestling Moments Ever

9. Diesel Sees His Future

One of the major feuds heading into WrestleMania XII was the program between Diesel and The Undertaker. In the months leading up to the show, each man had cost his foe a WWE Championship match with Bret Hart, and as the date of their meeting drew nearer, it was clear that hatred would motivate each man to victory.

Unfortunately for Diesel, though, feuds with The Undertaker rarely prove fruitful, and they always take their toll. On an episode of Raw before the show of shows, Diesel took on Barry Horowitz, but during the match, Paul Bearer wheeled a casket down to ringside. Diesel made short work of Horowitz, then nervously left the ring, approached the casket, and opened the lid to find... himself. There was a perfect facsimile of the former WWE Champion lying motionless in the steel coffin and Diesel, taken aback, slowly headed away from the ring.
