Talking Taker 131: Survivor Series 2007 (Undertaker vs Batista Hell In A Cell)

We've got a playdate inside The Dead Man's Playground on this week's Talking Taker! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their journey through every Undertaker PPV match as they talk about the Hell In A Cell clash between Taker and Batista at Survivor Series 2007. It's a rubber match as the series between The Animal and The Phenom sits at one win (and two draws) apiece. We discuss how, despite the always spectacular match quality, the feud itself begins to feel a bit stale before a shocking finish to the match promises to spice things up. Along the way we'll also discuss the frequent tag matches with Undertaker and Batista, JBL's confusing and unresolved presence in their rivalry, more tension between Jamie Noble and Vickie Guerrero, some excellent commentary work for a change, the importance of short and sweet promos, the evolution of "dropping the mic", and much more. Plus Alex shares his true story of spending a day on the set of the film "Stuber" taking a bump from Batista! Download, enjoy, and Taker Easy!
