151 - The Last Ride Episodes 4-5

"This time, the cowboy really rides away." Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White as they pause from their journey through every Undertaker PPV match to cover the emotional final two chapters of "The Last Ride" series on the WWE Network. After an absolutely unprecedented 30 year run in the WWE, the man behind The Dead Man, Mark Calaway, wrestles with his greatest opponent - Father Time. After narrowly escaping a life-threatening injury in a disastrous match against Goldberg, Taker weighs whether it's worth trying to continue searching for his perfect ending. A well-received tag team match (playa) at Extreme Rules 2019 seems to be enough for him. But an enticing opportunity with A.J. Styles at WrestleMania proves to finally be the finale The Phenom has been searching for. We'll analyze all of the major moments from these two episodes including hilarious clips of other wrestlers trying to get him to break character through the years, cameos from Matthew McConaughey and Regis Philbin, the struggle of not being booked for WrestleMania 35, working with young talent at the Performance Center, more classic moments with Vince and Taker backstage, devastating reveals about the family tragedies Undertaker faced before WrestleMania 36, behind the scenes stories about the Boneyard Match, and our thoughts on the legacy Mark Calaway leaves behind. Plus we'll continue to give out our prestigious "Undie" Awards for our favorite moments from each episode! So grab a tissue, download, and Taker Easy!
