174 - Royal Rumble 2017 Watch-Along

It's The Undertaker's final Royal Rumble appearance! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their journey through every Undertaker PPV match as they hit a bittersweet milestone in The Dead Man's career with his last entry in the 2017 version of the WWE's most iconic match. Of course you know you're doing it Watch-Along style - we'll give you the time stamp and encourage you to watch the entire match as we riff our way through the moments that begin the road to WrestleMania 33. It was only a few years ago but it still feels like a blast from the past as we talk about the likes of Enzo and Cass, Jack Gallagher, Goldberg, Big Show, Mark Henry, Chris Jericho, Dean Ambrose, James Ellsworth, Luke Harper, Randy Orton, and Roman Reigns. Before we get to the match we have some big moments to cover as well including The Undertaker's pep talk for the 2016 Smackdown Survivor Series team, an awkward altercation (or lack thereof) between Taker and Lebron James, and an epic staredown between Taker, Goldberg, and Brock Lesnar. Plus we'll also pay tribute to the creator of the Royal Rumble and one of the most important figures in WWE, the great Pat Patterson.
