00:07The Holy Thunders is scheduled for one fall.
00:11And you say first, from San Diego, California,
00:14weighing 235 pounds, the world's most dangerous man,
00:21Kendi Shamrock.
00:25Kendi Shamrock has a lot on his mind, his sister Ryan.
00:31But I think first and foremost is to break the leg of The Undertaker.
00:37It's not simple.
00:38Out of doubt, look at this.
00:47Kendi Shamrock is a very new��,
00:53Kendi.
00:58Kendi.
01:01Kendi.
01:02Kendi.
01:03Kendi.
01:05Kendi.
01:07Kendi.
01:08Kendi.
01:21His opponent, to be accompanied to the ring, by Paul Behr, from the Ministry of Darkness, weighing 318 pounds, the
01:33Undertaker!
01:38The Undertaker is the personification of evil!
01:44Oh, this is going to be a physical matchup!
01:49Almost seven feet tall is the Phenom, 328 pounds!
01:56Ken Shamrock, the King of the Octagon, the King of the Ultimate Fighting World!
02:04No doubt, Shamrock will be looking to destroy the vertical base of the Undertaker and Matt Russell, the Prince of
02:12Darkness!
02:14On the other hand, he has that ankle iconic!
02:16Damn right, that's what Shamrock is going to be shooting for!
02:20No pun intended!
02:22And secondly, The Undertaker has got to stay vertical!
02:26Leverage and strength advantage when he is vertical at 6'11 or so!
02:33And Shamrock is not going to waste any time!
02:36The Undertaker has abused and harassed Shamrock's sister, Ryan, and the Undertaker trying to cover up!
02:43Shamrock throwing some body shots there in the corner!
02:46Oh, man!
02:47The power of the Undertaker!
02:49Hard right hands!
02:50And Shamrock is not going to win a Slugfest!
02:53He cannot win this match in my view!
02:57Can Shamrock just going toe-to-toe with the Phenom?
03:02We don't know exactly what The Undertaker or the Ministry, to be more specific, actually did to or with Ryan
03:12Shamrock.
03:13But I'm sure Kenny knows.
03:16Knocked down by The Undertaker, hooks the arm, floats over, gets a near fall.
03:23Well, you gotta wonder what sort of mental toll, whatever experience that Ryan Shamrock had with the Ministry,
03:32specifically The Undertaker, will have on her life from that day forward.
03:37And look at this agility.
03:39Uh-oh.
03:39Again, almost seven feet tall, 328 pounds.
03:42We've seen it on many occasions, and it has never ceases to amaze me,
03:48the agility and athleticism of The Undertaker.
03:52But what he has done with Stephanie McMahon and that whole ordeal,
03:56what he has tried to do with Vince McMahon's daughter.
03:59And I'm not saying Vince McMahon is gonna be a Rotarian of the Year.
04:03Why not?
04:05But his daughter is an innocent young woman that has nothing to do with all this controversy.
04:10She was brought into it.
04:12She has been drawn into it by The Undertaker.
04:15And in my view, it's not right.
04:17Whoa, my gosh.
04:18Another great athletic move by The Undertaker.
04:20He went airborne there.
04:20Unbelievable.
04:21There's a couple.
04:22And a lateral press got two and a half.
04:25Well, we saw earlier on that The Undertaker was pleased with the results that he got from the rest of
04:31his ministry.
04:31But he still predicted a tragedy tonight.
04:35Is it gonna be in this match with Ken Shamrock?
04:38Is that what he's talking about?
04:39I don't know.
04:40It's hard to figure out exactly where The Undertaker is headed with this whole situation.
04:45And when he starts playing mind games, he has most of us outmanned.
04:54Hard whip.
04:55The Irish whip to the Irishman.
04:57Whoa, look at that.
04:58The Undertaker looking for a stick that foot right in Shamrock's face.
05:02And now Shamrock hard kicks right to the hamstrings.
05:06The hamstring is the quadricep muscle, the biggest muscle on your body.
05:10And now Shamrock going for it, trying to charley horse and knot it up.
05:14And now those hard body shots to the ribs of The Undertaker.
05:18Thanks, Dr. Ross.
05:19One, two, one, two.
05:22I took kinesiology in college.
05:23I remember a couple of things.
05:24Two.
05:25One, two.
05:27One, two.
05:27One, two.
05:28One, two.
05:30One, two.
05:30One, two.
05:31One, two.
05:32One, two.
05:32One, two.
05:32One, two.
05:33One, two.
05:33One, two.
05:35One, two.
05:37One, two.
05:40One, two.
05:41Shamrock with that pit bull mentality.
05:44And The Undertaker knows he's in the fight of his life here.
05:51Undertaker trying to fight his way out of corner and trying to force Shamrock to
05:56release some of the pressure on the ankle and the knee, the left knee of The Undertaker.
06:03Right now The Undertaker, he can't go anywhere.
06:05And referee Earl Hefner having trouble getting both these men to adhere to his
06:10That's a big mistake from Shamrock right there.
06:13What a shot.
06:15Never relinquish a hold like that.
06:17Look at that.
06:18Undertaker the suplex, I mean expertly done.
06:22And now the cover, and Shamrock able to kick out.
06:26And The Undertaker now the choke, Paul Bear distracting the referee.
06:29And The Undertaker taking a shortcut.
06:34All the wonderful accomplishments of The Undertaker and
06:38the respect that he has earned throughout the world for him to come to this.
06:44Come to total, looking for total annihilation.
06:48To bring innocent people into his whole sword situation.
06:54And like we said, he's really starting to, I mean, he's definitely a changed person.
06:59Or whatever you want to refer to him as.
07:02He's believing in what he thinks he is.
07:06I mean, he's even changed his look, look at his look.
07:09That face, look out, Shamrock, Shamrock trying to hyperextend the knee there.
07:17Shamrock has the ankle blocked, but
07:19he's trying to hyperextend the knee of The Undertaker.
07:21That's that left knee that Shamrock focused on early.
07:28Shamrock again, kicking that hamstring.
07:32He wants to knock the hamstring, Charlie horse it if he can, cause some deep bruises.
07:39And those serious contusions there, obviously lessen The Undertaker's mobility to
07:46the point he may not be able to stand.
07:49I think this crowd is sort of starting to sense now that Shamrock has a chance to do just that.
07:55Undertaker holding on.
07:56You don't see that very often from The Phenom.
08:00And once again, the face of The Phenom has changed.
08:04I mean, he resembles with that devilish looking beard.
08:08He resembles Lucifer or Beelzebub.
08:11I mean, he's just got that look to him.
08:14Again, Shamrock, great binding the knee and the ankle now.
08:19And The Undertaker writhing in pain.
08:21I don't think The Undertaker has ever been in any environment where someone has
08:26attacked his legs so expertly as Shamrock.
08:29And we've seen The Undertaker in a lot of great matchups where athletes have
08:33attempted to focus on the legs, but no one has been as successful as Shamrock has thus far.
08:39Well, you said it, and it takes a king to know a king.
08:41Shamrock's the king of this type of competition.
08:46When The Undertaker is horizontal, Shamrock's gonna have the advantage.
08:52When they go vertical, advantage, Undertaker.
08:56Right.
08:56And look at The Undertaker fighting back.
08:58Those shots are right in the kidneys.
09:01328th pounder of those kidney shots.
09:04And now ripping at the face of Shamrock, The Undertaker has got to free himself.
09:09He has got to create some distance here and get back to his feet.
09:14And that's one way to accomplish that.
09:22Undertaker backed up, delivers a heavy elbow from the vertical position.
09:29Right, as long as he can stay standing, he's definitely got the advantage.
09:32What a shot to the ribs.
09:42Shamrock not even able to get his hands up to try to block that one.
09:45Uh-oh, he blocked that.
09:47Look out.
09:47He's got him again.
09:48Shamrock rolled through, break counter, and The Undertaker is screaming.
09:53The Undertaker is screaming in pain.
09:55His shoulders are down.
09:57I have never heard The Undertaker scream in pain as we just did.
10:03And the expression on The Undertaker's face is one that I can't personally say I have ever seen.
10:14The Undertaker cannot figure a way out of Shamrock's game plan.
10:21And that's one way to break the hole, go to the rope.
10:26Shamrock milking that count as long as he can.
10:29And the veteran, The Undertaker, wisely rolls to the outside.
10:36Uh-oh, look at this.
10:38And Shamrock grabbing a handful of hair, not allowing The Undertaker that unofficial
10:42timeout he was looking for.
10:46And right back to the knee on the outside.
10:49And right now we know that Mr. McMahon and Stephanie are here.
10:52Mr. McMahon has got to be watching this and hoping and, I mean, even praying that some
10:57kind of way Shamrock could finish off The Undertaker here tonight.
11:01Well, Shamrock is alone.
11:03Look at this.
11:03Look at Shamrock, he wants to break that ankle right there.
11:06He may do it.
11:06He may have just done it.
11:09I'm not so sure I didn't hear it snap.
11:11Come on, come on.
11:14And Shamrock, who has displayed tremendous loyalty to Mr. McMahon.
11:22Shamrock no longer affiliated with Shane McMahon's corporation.
11:28Whereas, of course, on the other hand, The Undertaker, the leader of a large group known
11:33as The Ministry.
11:39You gotta be impressed with Shamrock's tenacity.
11:42He is not intimidated by a man that can say he has virtually intimidated them all.
11:50Well, when Shamrock gets in that zone, that's one thing that's not allowed in there with him.
11:54That's intimidation.
11:55He's not gonna be intimidated by anybody.
11:58The Undertaker, a former WWF champion.
12:04Now back on his feet, reestablish his vertical base with elbows and right hands.
12:11And now The Undertaker intimidating referee Earl Hebner.
12:17Hebner's completely out of the ring.
12:18Who would be?
12:20Now Shamrock fights back.
12:23Shamrock with the right hand.
12:24Shamrock with another right.
12:26The Undertaker reeling here.
12:28And the- Look at this!
12:29Drop toehold.
12:31The Undertaker with a drop toehold.
12:33One, three, two.
12:34Right hand by The Undertaker.
12:35Open your hand.
12:37Hey!
12:38And Shamrock reverses.
12:41Shamrock counter.
12:42Look at this!
12:44Bujar arm bar, Shamrock trying to hyper extend the elbow.
12:47What do you say?
12:48Ask out.
12:49And The Undertaker desperately reaching for the ropes.
12:52When's the last time you saw The Undertaker King try to take that shortcut and
12:56reach for the ropes?
12:57And just like you, we heard him scream in pain again.
13:02Shamrock, if he can, will hyper extend the elbow.
13:05He will rip the tendons and he will keep ripping until that elbow is absolutely useless.
13:12And The Undertaker, at almost 70 feet tall, able to get into the ropes.
13:18And The Undertaker again, again, is buying himself some time.
13:27The Undertaker, with obvious as to the game plans.
13:31Boom!
13:32Oh, man!
13:33The Undertaker taking Shamrock straight south.
13:37And more importantly for The Undertaker, we get a little bit of a break here from the torture
13:44that Shamrock has perpetrated on his knee and ankle.
13:47The Undertaker, right on the security railing, was The Phenom.
13:53And Shamrock now, out on the apron.
13:58Uh-oh.
13:59Shamrock got caught in a marathon.
14:03Spine first into the ring post, and they are made of solid steel on those ring posts.
14:12And Shamrock may just be debilitated right there.
14:17You're not kidding.
14:17Oh, look at this.
14:18Face first into the steps, and that ain't, that can't feel good any way you slice it.
14:23I don't like it.
14:24They're getting a little too close for comfort, JR.
14:30Shamrock thrown back in the ring by The Phenom.
14:35And now The Undertaker has that decided advantage.
14:39He's back up.
14:40Forearm shot to the lower back.
14:42One more time, right in the kidney area.
14:49And a lot of athletes sustain internal injuries in those kidney shots.
14:54Good power of The Undertaker.
14:57Backbreaker right across the lower back.
14:59The kidney.
14:59That seems to be the focus now of The Undertaker.
15:04The Undertaker now looking for a submission move himself.
15:10Referee in great position to hear Shamrock say yes or no.
15:17Saying no.
15:18Undertaker bending that back, almost like the effect of a Boston Crab.
15:25And now The Undertaker going for a cover, got two out of it.
15:29Shamrock with the left shoulder up that time.
15:32And again, The Undertaker, with Shamrock rolled onto his stomach.
15:37Are we looking for kidneys again?
15:40Or bow and arrow?
15:42Wow.
15:44Another submission move.
15:51Shamrock being stretched by The Undertaker.
15:55With those knees right into the lower back and then just catapulted off.
16:05Right in the, again in the kidney area.
16:07And Shamrock, look at his, the expression on his face.
16:12I see what The Undertaker's trying to do, but I don't agree with the strategy.
16:15I don't think there's any way in hell that Ken Shamrock, after all he and
16:20his sister have been through, that Ken Shamrock is gonna submit or give up.
16:24I think The Undertaker needs to be going for it.
16:27The choke slams, tombstones, or those type of maneuvers to try to put Shamrock away.
16:32After the slam, we see The Undertaker continues to limp there.
16:36Oh, didn't get the elevation, he normally gets it, look at that.
16:40Shamrock, Shamrock rolled through the, the leg drop.
16:43Shamrock trying to roll The Undertaker over.
16:47And look at the ankle, the ankle is posted on Shamrock's shoulder.
16:52It can't go anywhere, and the knee's been wrenched.
16:59Undertaker reaching, desperately reaching for the ropes just moments ago.
17:06This, this ground attack is not The Undertaker's forte.
17:11Look, hyperextension coming up.
17:13Shamrock in the league of his own here, in this style.
17:18Again, working on that thigh muscle, and now the ankle, and The Undertaker.
17:22The Undertaker countered, what a counter by The Undertaker.
17:25A half Boston Crab by The Phenom, a great reversal.
17:30Look at that face.
17:36Shamrock now finds himself with a taste of his medicine.
17:52Shamrock drilled face first into the turnbuckle.
17:57And again, The Undertaker finds his advantage.
18:02So much leverage when you're, have this much heightened advantage.
18:07And now Shamrock fighting back, he'll give you everything he's got with Shamrock.
18:17Uh-oh, Undertaker reversed the Irish, and caught Shamrock coming off.
18:22With a forearm right in the head, and there's a cover, but not enough body on body there.
18:29Fatigue obviously got to be setting in, and both these guys' bodies have got to be riveted with pain.
18:37Look at that, Shamrock came up with a flying elbow, and then he put the underdog down, nor did the
18:40knee.
18:42Undertaker getting a little wobbly, though.
18:44Shamrock, oh man.
18:47Shamrock got his shoulder up, and the Undertaker didn't like that a bit.
18:56He thought he had three that time.
19:01Certainly no time to debate the officiating.
19:07Oh, man!
19:08Shamrock with almost like a football chalk block.
19:11Wow.
19:12On the shin, maybe even the kneecap, and the hurricanrana.
19:20Shamrock with a hurricanrana.
19:22He's pulling out all the stops, Shamrock is.
19:24There's a cover.
19:25Will that be enough?
19:26Not this time, but the Undertaker, look at the look on his face.
19:31Undertaker almost a look of disbelief here.
19:34And again.
19:35There it is!
19:37The ankle lock, what happened?
19:38Undertaker able to kick out.
19:40Before Shamrock had really get it applied, the Undertaker was able to use his free leg to kick out.
19:46And there's a cover, and again, you see, not enough body on body.
19:49You gotta believe, at least in my book, King, that the fatigue and pain factor is becoming an issue.
19:55On both of these guys, without a doubt.
19:57Undertaker's legs have been so attacked by Shamrock that the Undertaker can barely stand.
20:02But at the same time, I think just general fatigue is wearing in and is sitting in on Shamrock.
20:08Uh-oh.
20:08His whole body is gonna be damaged.
20:10No, Shamrock, he counters.
20:12Double leg pick up.
20:13Now Shamrock has the ankle off.
20:15Shamrock with the ankle off on the Undertaker.
20:17He got him!
20:18The Undertaker has never submitted here in the WWF.
20:21Look at this, look at this!
20:22There's Bradshaw.
20:23Bradshaw with the ball back.
20:25Bradshaw came on with the ball back.
20:27The Undertaker now, gonna take Shamrock for the ride.
20:32My God, what a counter!
20:34What an amazing counter!
20:36Look!
20:38Hallbear!
20:41Hallbear, distracting Shamrock here, after an amazing counter.
20:50Shamrock, belly to belly, suplex like Shamrock.
20:57Shamrock.
20:57Man, Shamrock's gotta overcome all these odds now.
21:00You got Bradshaw off there with the ball back.
21:03Ballbearer jumping up down here at ringside.
21:05Look at this.
21:05You're kidding!
21:06No!
21:06My God!
21:07A counter!
21:08What a counter!
21:10Undertaker with a counter!
21:11Tombstone!
21:13What an amazing counter!
21:15The Tombstone!
21:17And The Undertaker has won a war!
21:19Here is your winner, The Undertaker!
21:28Well, on this night, The Undertaker prevails with a little help from Bradshaw,
21:36a ball back, and Paul Bear.
21:39The Undertaker—
21:40The Undertaker.
21:43You
