Not going to lie, I'm actually pissing myself laughing having thought it through. The entire episode when it cuts to the aerial view I kept thinking "surely not he's loaded" 🙈 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobra_gordo Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 I've finally watched this today, managed to get through the lot in one sitting. Enjoyed every minute of it. Got to echo what others have said, the stuff with Vince is brilliant, the man looks like he's permanently on the edge of tears though. The unseen backstage stuff is fascinating- him and Bearer fucking about when digging graves, chatting to Angle backstage. He comes across as a genuinely lovely bloke. I'll always say that Hogan was the one that got me in to wrestling but Taker was the one that kept me a fan. He was my favourite in that era, my favourite when he came back as The American Badass but he's been slipping down my list of favourites after the Bray match at Mania. After this though, fuck it, he's my favourite of all time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members garynysmon Posted June 24, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted June 24, 2020 Probably in the minority here, but I think that cinematic wrestling is shit and that Boneyard match is an appalling way to end a glittering career on.

I hate cinematic wrestling too BUT I thought the boneyard match was really good. It completely fit The Undertaker persona and he has done many vignettes etc in graveyards and the like before so it wasn't completely out of left field. Him driving off into the darkness fit perfectly too.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Cod Eye Posted June 24, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted June 24, 2020 Everytime they make one of these docs with the 'Mania 9 backstage footage, it reminds me just how much I'd love a feature length "The Making of Wrestlemania 9" documentary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wideload90 Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 The boneyard match helped mask the physical aspects that undertaker couldn't manage. It's as good a match as we're going to get. Any future in-ring performance should be brief - tombstone or chokeslam and get out in one piece. A great albeit biased documentary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The general reception to it was very positive. Those involved in making it were very happy. AJ was happy. Taker was happy. Put all of that together and whether you think it's 'cringey' or not, it was absolutely a fitting last hurrah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get out. I mean, he's probably going to wrestle again when Vince asks, but I quite like how they went about this. To create such a good docu-series about the guy and finish it with him retiring is something different from how they usually do it. A few mates that are lapsed fans have checked out the documentary off the back of the retirement news and have been very positive about the docu-series (despite the t-shirts). Even Taker has come to the realisation he's not good enough to have the traditional classic send off match he's craved so settled on the AJ match because it's brilliant. He'll never top it doing a traditional match. Edited June 24, 2020 by ColinBollocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
