201 - Coliseum Video Classics Volume 1

It's time to plug in your VCR and rewind with us to the days of Coliseum Video on this month's Talking Taker! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their encyclopedic exploration digging up The Dead Man as they dive into some of the Undertaker's early Home Video Classics! These WWF compilation videos were a staple of growing up as a wrestling fan in the early 90s and they contain so many unique match-ups of The Undertaker that we've never covered before. Join us as we rent 5 tapes from the virtual video store that is Peacock containing 6 unique matches: World Tour 91, Rampage 91, Crunch Classic, Battle Royal at the Albert Hall, and Rampage 92. Included are matches featuring Taker in the ring with Hulk Hogan, Ultimate Warrior, British Bulldog, Sgt. Slaughter, Hacksaw Jim Duggan, The Berzerker, Papa Shango, and more. And the best part - there's no late fees! It's a truly old school Talking Taker episode as we get the chance to riff on so many topics including brutal commentary from Sean Mooney and Lord Alfred Hayes, incredible crowd reactions, an all-time great forgotten Undertaker entrance, Paul Bearer hamming it up for the camera and taking us on a tour of his home, all the chokes and punches and kicks you could ask for, babyfaces acting like heels, new nicknames for Taker, the Royal Samovar Trophy, and so much more. Plus we discuss "The Undertaker" on an episode of "Young Rock" and Alex getting to meet the Hardcore Legend Mick Foley!
