‘I beat them’: Wrestling veteran made wild revelations about Undertaker rookie in previous WWE years

Mark Calaway worked several times outside of WWE before becoming The Undertaker. While wrestling on the indie stage and WCW, his names are The Punisher, Mean Mark Callous, and more.

However, Taker wasn’t always who he is today. Phenom’s WCW tag team partner once shared his locker room leadership qualities in charge of Taker. And, he also shared one of the things he once represented him.

A year ago, Dan Spivey appeared in Briscoe and Bradshaw’s story. There, he recalled some memories of The Undertaker, who had a tag team in WCW called “Skyscrapers.” Spivey attributes his locker room leadership qualities to qualities usually associated with Taker. Additionally, he recalls using WWE Hall of Famers to teach The Road Warriors a lesson.

Spivey said, “I think it has a lot to do with me because only I want things that have good games and respect. I mean something like this happened in Corpus Christi and I think the Road Warriors took advantage of Mark. ‘s made me mad, so at the end of the game I beat them with chairs or something.”

He broke the chair while beating The Road Warriors. Also, Tucker was nervous in the locker room facing the legendary doubles. Spivey, like a true locker room leader, made Callaway comfortable, saying he’d be on the lookout if there was a locker room altercation.

However, the Road Warriors applauded their game. Also, JBL remembers Taker telling this story several times while they were on the road. Apparently, Spivey had a big influence on The Deadman, and he learned some noble qualities from him.

Dan Spivey stunned by seeing Mark Calaway as the Undertaker

Spivey also said that Taker was a simple guy who went to Japan when they broke up. When the WCW legend returned to America, he was asked if he had seen WWE’s new wrestler, The Undertaker. While in Japan, he had no contact with Callaway and did not know who the mourners were.

Spivey said, “So I turned on the TV and said, dammit, it’s Mark! He has long hair. When he broke into me and everything, he had short hair, no tattoos, nothing. (He) is Mr., not Mr. (People) ).”

he added, “About a year later, I met him. He was tall, with long hair and drinking Jack Daniel’s, which is why I said what a 360. I knew that kid would be fine, but he wouldn’t so good!”

Taker’s former doubles partner further stated that The Phenom turned out to be an excellent worker. Plus, he sheds light on the fun fact that every single of his tag team partners is now a Hall of Famer.
