Crossbody of Work Episode 9: Undertaker Part One – The ’90s

Welcome to Crossbody of Work, a show where we break down a wrestler’s career through five of their biggest matches.

This week we start with part one of our three-part series on The Undertaker. One of the legends of the wrestling business, Undertaker has had a 30 year WWE career. With his longevity and his impact on the business, we felt it was only right to do a three-part series on his career. In episode one we’re covering 1990’s Undertaker, from his debut to his first WWF Championship and all the way to his Ministry of Darkness days. On this episode, Evan & Javier also talk about:

• Undertaker’s early command of his gimmick
• How Canadians age faster than other people
• Javier being here for the tea
• My Chemical Romance

And a lot more.
