The Undertaker

Hi all GamerGeek back again with another blog about the new WWE Hall of Fame inductee, the Deadman, the Lord of Darkness, Mean Mark Callous...... The Phenomenon The Undertaker 


He started to train in 1986, he had his debut in WCCW ( World Class Championship Wrestling) in 1987.  In 1989, Calaway joined World Championship Wrestling (WCW) as a villain and adopted the ring name "Mean Mark" Callous, 😂 a name devised for him by Terry Funk. In 1990 he signed for WWF under the name Kane The Undertaker. The Undertaker’s November 22 Survivor Series elimination tag match.

Throughout the end of 1990, The Undertaker mostly picked up victories against jobbers on Superstars of Wrestling and Wrestling Challenge tapings. He was a participant in the 1991 Royal Rumble match which was won by Hulk Hogan. 

The Undertaker made his WrestleMania debut at WrestleMania VII on March 24, 1991, where he quickly defeated Jimmy Snuka. He began his first major feud with The Ultimate Warrior when he attacked Warrior and locked him in an airtight casket. The Undertaker got a chance at the WWF Championship title at Survivor Series. He defeated Hulk Hogan to win his first WWF Championship  with the help of Ric Flair. He lost the title back to Hogan 6 days later. 😒

In his career he has held the 
WWF/WWE Championship (4 times)
World Heavyweight Championship (3 times)
WWF Hardcore Championship (1 time)
WWF World Tag Team Championship (6 times) – with Stone Cold Steve Austin (1), Big Show (2), The Rock (1), and Kane (2)
WCW Tag Team Championship (1 time) – with Kane
Royal Rumble (2007)
WWE Hall of Fame (Class of 2022)

He has had a few tag team partners but the best has to be Kane. The feud he had with Kane and Paul Bearer. They became the brothers of destruction. 

I just love this photo of the two of them after Paul Bearer passed away. 😥😥

Throughout the years he has changed his style, gotten different nicknames and has changed gimmicks. One of my favourite was American Badass. Coming out to Limp Bizkit Rollin" on a motorbike was just awesome. 
He returned near the end of the Iron Man match for the WWF Championship between Triple H and The Rock at Judgment Day.

One of my favourite feuds he had was with Stone Cold, when he kidnapped Stephanie McMahon and tried to marry her in Unholy Wedding. Stone Cold stopped it as Vince begged him to help him. 

He has had so many amazing WrestleMania moments. One of my favourites is Taker vs Triple H and Shawn Michaels as a special guest ref. It was the match of the night after this it was The Rock vs John Cena nobody cares about that match after Taker and Hunter, Hell in a Cell. It was just amazing seriously watch it.


His WrestleMania opponents were: 
(number shown is the WrestleMania Event)

7 Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka 1-0 
8 Jake “The Snake” Roberts 2-0 
9 Giant Gonzalez 3-0 
11 King Kong Bundy 4-0 
12 Diesel 5-0
13 Sycho Sid 6-0 
14 Kane 7-0
15 Big Boss Man 8-0 
17 Triple H 9-0 
18 Ric Flair 10-0 
19 Big Show and A-Train 11-0 
20 Kane 12-0 
21 Randy Orton 13-0 
22 Mark Henry 14-0 
23 Batista 15-0 
24 Edge 16-0 
25 Shawn Michaels 17-0 
26 Shawn Michaels 18-0 
27 Triple H 19-0 
28 Triple H 20-0 
29 CM Punk 21-0 
30 Brock Lesnar 21-1 
31 Bray Wyatt 22-1 
32 Shane McMahon 23-1
33 Roman Reigns 23-2 
34 John Cena 24-2
36 AJ Styles 25-2

When Taker lost to Brock it was end of streak, no one watching this could believe it myself included. We were all like this guy the "taker guy".

After 2011 he would make various appearances within the WWE but more so WrestleMania a week or two before to accept a challenge, or sometimes at WrestleMania like against John Cena 😒😒😒. 

With him been inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, it should of been a few years ago to be fair.  After his speech he put on his trench coat and hat saying "Never Say Never". 😲😲🥰🥰 


30 years later, and there will never be another wrestler like him he is one of the best wrestlers in the industry, never put on a bad show, always gave you goosebumps with his Rest In Peace saying into the mic 😬😬

That is all for now till next time 🤙

Hi all GamerGeek back again with another blog about a WWE wrestler called Test aka Andrew Martin. During the end of the 90's and start of the 00's Andrew was a big star.  He first appeared in the WWF in 1998 he joined The Corporation ( I will be doing a blog on this stable soon). FYI this was Vince McMahon's stables with most of the locker room. This was one of the best stables in the WWE history as it was a best feud between Vince and Austin 😘 another time. One of his best storylines was when he started an on-screen relationship with Stephanie McMahon. It led to an amazing match at SummerSlam 1999 between Shane and Test in a "love her or leave her" match. Shane has a posse with him called "The Mean Street posse" 🤭🤭 so of course during this match they got involved. During the match Pat Patterson and Gerald Brisco ran out to help out Test knocking out the posse 🤭. Test of course won the match much to Stephanie's delight. They were to m...

Hi all GamerGeek back again with another blog about a wrestler who I had the privilege to watch live in Ireland and also have a chance to interview.  Ladies and gentlemen....... Dru Onyx. 👏👏👏 Dru has been in the Wrestling industry for over 20 years, he always wanted to be a wrestler. He thought wrestling was the closest thing to being a superhero 🦸. The way the guys dressed back in the day, long thights, capes, masks, it was like a comic book to him. He lived his dreams of being a superhero through being a wrestler. His first WWF event he attended was Raw just before WrestleMania 3 he got to see Ricky the Dragon Streamboat, Randy Savage, Billy Jack Haynes, Kamala. His favourite WWE match was Ricky Streamboat vs Randy Savage WrestleMania 3. It was exciting for him after seeing them both at the event just before this. He also said he really enjoyed the following: HBK Shawn Michaels vs Bret The Hitman Hart 60min Iron Man match Ultimate Warrior vs Hulk Hogan...

Hi all GamerGeek back again with another blog about a wrestler fighting out of Montreal Canada....... Born and raised in Dublin Ireland Ladies and Gentlemen Adam Ace  Adam Ace aka Mark Flanagan always wanted to be a wrestler. He started wrestling in early 2011 in a small wrestling school in Dublin. It would take him a 2 hour bus ride each way from his house to train for 2 to 3 hours, 4 to 5 times a week. Now that is a man determined to be a wrestler. "Ever since I could walk I wanted to wrestle, I loved the pageantry, the athleticism, the story telling. Wrestlers were real life superhero’s and I gravitated towards that."  When he started his career he had 3 characters with terrible names and awful gimmicks. He really want to make this his career and to be taken seriously so he re-branded himself. He would study wrestlers names and noticed most wrestlers were using names that sounds like real names.  " I started looking at wrestlers names again and noticed a ...
