WWE Legend The Undertaker recently discussed having to wrestle following the tragic in-ring death of Owen Hart back in 1999.
Speaking as part of a Patreon Q&A, the former WWE Champion revealed what it was like wrestling after Owen fell to the ring at Over The Edge 1999 and he even questioned the decision for the show to continue after the unfortunate rigging accident.
“Wow. Man, [it was] such an interesting time period. We’re all grinding, just trying to do the best that we could but trying to process the information that somebody just passed away due to some, whatever, the rigging accident” he began (via SEScoops).
“A guy that you spent tonnes of time with and seen every day for years and you just losing [him]. One minute he’s there and then the next he’s not. Then you have to go out and put the pieces together and try and perform, it was probably one of the most difficult…definitely, mentally one of the toughest days I think I’ve ever had” ‘Taker added.
The Undertaker questions massive WWE decision
‘Taker would then question the decision from Vince McMahon for the PPV event to continue after Owen fell to his death:
“If you go back and you watch the footage of that, you can see it on everybody’s face. There’s just a huge element to the match and everything that’s going on.
“You can just tell that no one really wanted to be out there. Like I said, it’s still very raw and you’re processing this information, but you also are trying to entertain these people. You lived by that motto back then ‘The show must go on.’ I just don’t know that that was the right thing to do” Undertaker added.
