149 - Hell In A Cell 2009

Buckle up, Teddy! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their journey through every Undertaker PPV match as they hop in the backseat of this time-traveling hearse for a trip to the World Title rematch between Taker and CM Punk inside Satan's Structure at Hell In A Cell 2009! It's the first ever Hell In A Cell PPV, all based on a match The Undertaker put on the map. So why is The Demon Of Death Valley going on first in a 10 minute match? We'll discuss all the reasons why this match (and this PPV concept) never really get off the ground. But before we get there we're covering one of the most absurd and memorable moments in The Undertaker's history as he abducts Teddy Long to get his revenge from the Breaking Point Screwjob - it's so ridiculous it's amazing! Plus we'll also cover Teddy's bizarre explanation for his actions, the un-banning of the Hell's Gate, giving away this match on free tv, the continuing and confusing saga of Mr. McMahon's picture, the redebut of Drew McIntyre, the absolutely bonkers Smackdown Tenth Anniversary, Eric Escobar, Santino's Undertaker impression, The Rock getting involved in this rivalry, Emperor Palpatine narrating the PPV open, the historic significance of Undertaker's title win at this show, and so much more. Plus, we discuss our reactions to episode 4 of The Last Ride! Download, enjoy, and Taker Easy!
