Our time-traveling hearse pulls into its final stop as we arrive at The Boneyard! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White as they reach the end of their journey through every Undertaker PPV match with the main event of night one of WrestleMania 36 between The Dead Man and AJ Styles. Yes, after 3 and a half years, we've finally reached the final match of The Undertaker's career - at least for now! The Boneyard Match was an instantly iconic cinematic spectacle, the perfect conclusion to The Phenom's legendary 30-year career. We'll break it down in full detail including all the hilarious trash talk and one-liners, the brilliant foreshadowing, the many meme-worthy moments, and all the reasons this match rocked our world in the early days of a global pandemic. Along the way we'll talk about how the Covid-19 pandemic turned the WWE on its head and completely upended the plans for WrestleMania, The Undertaker's final appearance in front of a live audience to date, AJ's intensely personal promos on Mark Calaway and Michelle McCool, our meet and greet with The Undertaker in the midst of all this, Taker's ranking amongst Mania main eventers, "Tiger King", Mark Wahlberg, Metallica, and the return of The Biker Taker after 17 years!
