Blimey, the Undertaker has done an episode of Hot Ones.
Can't wait until his FINAL FAREWELL on Sunday leads to another feud in which we're expected to buy into the mystique of Spooky Mark.

Fuck me has he not gone yet? His farewell has been longer than some careers.
The Final Farewell is on Sunday, he's definitely, absolutely, positively 100% done this time!
Then he can rock up in AEW to be Darby Allin's token old bloke in the corner, that they are absolutely feasting on.
I'm a twit
To be honest if it meant I never had to watch him wrestle again I'd be all over him doing that, as lol as it is that AEW will hire absolutely any old fucker just to hang about.
Won't happen though. It'd make Vince cross and Mean Mark won't risk that.
He could carry a menu around like Arn Anderson.
Laminated, no less. It's only a matter of time before that's slicing between Jon Moxley's fingers.
I'm a twit
AEW is on free to air next year on 7.
I might be late to the party on this but OSW's ruined for me now. They love to explain a joke and then repeat the joke with footage. Repeating spots. Damn it, D'lo, etc.
All 30 gone now, at $1000.
I imagine they'll release some extra-special limited Cameo's for 2k soon.
Gosh, he's so supernatural and mysterious!
Nice of WWE to go back to the old "HE WAS NEVAR ELIMINATED!!!!" finish in a battle royal.
The women's survivor series match is the worst finish to one of these elimination matches.
Kane in his full ring gear with everyone else in suits is brilliant.
So they closed the PPV with taker coming out and cutting the same promo he’s done at least 4 times? Incredible.
Yeah, having that main event and then finishing with that Undertaker bullshit. I really hope that's actually him done this time, what with all that and him now appearing on every show and podcast going.
Yeah I thought they were gonna have Bianca get in and then either Lana go down valiantly or sneak a roll-up or something. I thought it was a decent match otherwise and actually not a bad show overall. The men's survivor series match had decent action though I'm not sure why they booked it how they did, I thought Zayn did what he could to make the most of the short time him and Bobbles were given when he'd clearly been told it was going to be a dominant loss (I loved Lashley just running through a clothesline and everything else was good. Profits / New Day was great (though fucking lol at reuniting the New Day briefly for a fucking Gears of War advert), Sasha / Asuka was good (I'd have probably had Asuka nick it purely so you could have a future match after a proper feud where you still have the thread of Banks never pinning / submitting Asuka 1v1) and the main event was really, really good. It's nice how much Reigns gave McIntyre given they knew who was going over and yeah the ending was a screwy finish but a) it was obviously never going to be a squeaky clean win for anybody here and b) it did at least make some sense.
Not a classic or anything but on the whole I enjoyed that.
EDIT: Oh, and Keith Lee's new theme isn't as good as the old one but it's decent.
Was Kane’s hair real?
I'm a twit
I don't think his hair has ever been real has it? Other than the fluffy, baldingness when he first unmasked.
It was real back in the day, it was certainly real when he was Diesel so it would have been an odd move to shave his head then give him a wig that looked exactly the same. I reckon anything post unmasking has been a wig (short, normal person hair aside).
Yeah I know as 'Diesel' and Isaac Yankem it was his. I dunno that I ever really thought about it pre-mask.
It was real but he cut just before the unmasking to have the weird hair for the reveal.
My word.
Were we due one this Wednesday? Didn't we have one last week or was that the Wednesday before?
I assume I'm suffering lockdown time distortion rather than us getting this a week early.
This could have been at least an hour.
That Riddle/Sheamus match on Raw was surprisingly very good. It was a decent show in terms of the matches, actually. Though Boatman getting himself "suspended" because he apparently doesn't know the phrase "last but not least" is colossally dumb.
First there was triple threat matches. Then there was No Holds Barred triple threat matches. Now there’s Sudden Death triple threat matches! I can’t wait for next month when we will have a three man triple threat match.
Falls count anywhere inside the ring singles match
Caught up with NXT.
Ripley v Shirai and Dunne v KOR were fantastic.
They were indeed.
I came here to say "Fuck that" to the bump Jeff took on Raw last night.
A couple of minutes into this:
Why's he even trying that? On TV against sodding Elias? There's clearly not enough room.
Because, 'Fuck it. It's the finish.'
Sting is in AEW.
The good thing about AEW signing all these pensioners is it means that's one less for WWE to sign (and give their world titles.)
Pat Patterson has died.
It's a shame it was without a crowd.
I dunno, a crowd chanting "This is awesome!" or "You deserve it!" as an old man passes away could be considered to be in bad taste.
AEW sharing talent with Impact is very interesting.
Can Sting still wrestle or did Seth Rollins kill his neck properly? If they're going full WCW they need to get Goldberg to smash Omega in 90 seconds on Dark.
I reckon he will do tags to get the likes of Darby over.
I've never got Sting, but fuck me, they're going to go full on TNA aren't they?
He has to be cleared to wrestle, otherwise it's a complete waste of time.
There were a load of rumours earlier in the year that he'd been cleared to wrestle I think so I wouldn't be surprised if that was true and it was just the 'return to WWE' stuff that wasn't or didn't ever really gain traction.
He is in a mid card storyline atm so it isnt TNA levels of lol just yet.
I've just watched the video of it and JR really sounds like he's going through the motions of being "excited."
I watched it too having watched hardly anything from AEW ever, and while I don't disagree about JR, he still feels like the voice of wrestling to me. All wrestling without him feels like it's missing something. His half-hearted excitement is still a billion times better than some cunt shouting "OH MY!"
Well sure but "being better than Michael Cole" isn't a very high bar to clear.
Late 90s / early 2000s JR is still the best and I don't think anybody's ever really come close in any wrestling I've watched so I think I tend to go the other way a little now and hearing him so lethargic and disinterested just makes me a bit sad.
I think peak Mauro pips him for me because of how enthusiastic and passionate he was. He also made it feel more like an actual "sport".
Present Ranallo is better than present JR though some of his catchphrases are getting a bit Andy Gray / tek a boo son.
