214: The Monday Night War - July 6th, 1998
We're taking the time-traveling hearse to the frontlines of the Monday Night War on this very special edition of Talking Taker! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their encyclopedic exploration digging up The Dead Man as they look back at the main events of Raw and Nitro on a historic night for professional wrestling - July 6th, 1998. On Raw the main event sees an unforgettable moment where The Undertaker disguises himself as his brother Kane to become the #1 Contender for the WWF Title and kicks off the Highway To Hell. But over on Nitro it's one of the most important nights ever for WCW as Goldberg takes on Hulk Hogan for the World Championship in front of 40,000 fans at the Georgia Dome - including our very own Mr. Travis White! We've got watch-along commentary for this two memorable main events, switching channels and marking out just like we would way back when in the Attitude Era as we reflect on a time when wrestling was as awesome as it's ever been. Join us as we discuss Travis's on the scene memories of the night, plus thoughts on some folks we don't get to talk much about on this show like Dean Malenko, Raven, Kanyon, Scott Putski, Johnny Swinger, Public Enemy, Alex Wright, Tokyo Magnum, and so much more. All that and our monthly Undertaker Sightings featuring memories of late Iron Sheik, Paul Heyman on Rick Rubin's podcast, and Taker and Mick Foley's Hell In A Cell watch-along! Download, enjoy, and #TakerEasy!
