224: The Undertaker vs. The Iron Claw‪!‬ Talking Taker

    • Wrestling

Can The Undertaker break The Von Erich Curse? Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their encyclopedic exploration digging up The Dead Man as they take their time-traveling hearse back to Dallas in 1989 to cover some of the earliest footage of Mark Calaway as The Punisher facing off with The Modern Day Warrior Kerry Von Erich and many more characters from the USWA. This episode is inspired by the award-winning film "The Iron Claw" and we'll give our thoughts on the movie before discuss these "deleted scenes" and why we think The Punisher got cut out of the movie. We'll discuss some matches and characters we never thought we'd talk about on this show including Taras Bulba, Latin Lover, Uncle Elmer, Cousin Junior, Billy Toe Travis, Eric Embry, Gentleman Chris Adams, Matt Borne, and more. Along the way we'll cover The Punisher roaming free in the badlands, grown men ripping cigs in the front row of these matches, grandmas going nuts over The Von Erichs, brawls running through the fire exits, whether or not Uncle Elmer is a trained athlete, Marc Lowrance's unintentionally funny commentary, Kerry's amazing babyface promo, the pure fun of territory wrestling, the returns of Percy Pringle III and Skandor Akbar and P.Y. Chu Hi, plus a final encounter between The Undertaker and The Texas Tornado in the WWF. All that and another jam-packed edition of Undertaker Sightings for the month of March including predictions for The Dead Man at WrestleMania XL. Download, enjoy, and Taker Easy!
