Confronting your boss and calling him out on bull**** is something that most of us have wanted to do over the years. But few people actually do, especially in pro wrestling where sycophancy is usually linked to success. But after Vince McMahon 'screwed' Bret Hart at the 1997 Survivor Series in Montreal, The Undertaker took it upon himself to confront McMahon and call out his bull**** handling of the situation. "The Undertaker rose from his chair, said a few cuss words and powered offhe wasn't happy!" Vince Russo told WhatCulture in 2014. Dave Meltzer at the time reported it as "Undertaker was furious, pounding on the locked door and when he came out to talk with him Undertaker told him in no uncertain terms that he needed to apologize to Hart." Few people in the history of WWE have had the ego to go up to McMahon like that and aggressively order him to do something. While some would say that Taker was "sticking up for the boys", he was also perhaps too blinded by his own self righteousness to realise that McMahon had done what he did for the boys. Bret was off to WCW, the WWF had to come first. Nevertheless, stuff like this made Taker a legend to the locker room, which is largely why he'd get away with so much politics himself.
