241: The Undertaker Goes Hollywood With Stephen Zieman (Poltergeist: The Legacy, Celebrity Deathmatch, and more!)

from Talking Taker · host Alex Doriot

Before The Rock, John Cena, or Batista did it, The Undertaker went Hollywood! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White alongside fellow P.S.K. member Stephen Zieman as they hop in the time-traveling hearse back to 1999 and the summer The Undertaker was making guest appearances on all sorts of tv shows! It's an often overlooked era of Taker's career and even The Dead Man's most dedicated fans may have never even heard of some of these offbeat appearances. We'll break down his guest roles on MTV cartoons like "Celebrity Deathmatch" and "Downtown," his brief stint as a host on the SciFi Channel, and in our main event, his biggest acting role yet as The Soul Chaser on an episode of "Poltergeist: The Legacy"! Taker actually has a major role on this episode as the "monster of the week" character and we get to see what he could have done had he chased down fame and fortune as an action star. It's also hilarious time-capsule of low-budget 90s tv and we have a great time breaking down even if you've never seen or heard of this one. All that plus our monthly Undertaker Sightings including his role in the WrestleMania 43 press conference and his big surprise for Stephanie McMahon at WrestlePalooza.
