  • 253: The Fall Of Mean Mark In WCW
    Sep 1 2026

    Mean Mark was on the rise to the top in WCW in 1990, but things quickly came falling apart. What the heck happened?! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their encyclopedic exploration digging up The Dead Man as we complete our look back at the full journey of The Undertaker in his early days as Mean Mark Callous in WCW. Everything was looking up for the rookie in the summer of 1990 as he had his biggest match ever - a U.S. Title Shot on PPV against "The Total Package" Lex Luger. But after losing that match, everything began to go downhill. We cover Mean Mark's final few months in World Championship Wrestling and try to pinpoint exactly where it all fell apart, including a rematch with "Wildfire" Tommy Rich that may have been the beginning of the end. We also discuss Paul E. Dangerously's incredible promo skills that were evident from an early age, Jim Ross's ridiculous reliance on college stats for commentary, why we need to see more "Grannies" in wrestling crowds, Bob Caudle's awkward commentary blunders, the logics of pro wrestling hospital bills, some incredible house show matches in Mean Mark's final days, and so much more. All that plus we look back at our SummerSlam weekend in Minneapolis, make a pitch to take over the Six Feet Under podcast, and shout out our new friend on TikTok! Download, enjoy, and Taker Easy!
