The Undertaker vs. King Kong Bundy

 

The Winner: The Undertaker

Background Noise

Undertaker was feuding with Ted Dibiase’s Million Dollar Corporation after Dibiase funded an imposter Undertaker in 1994. Bundy was a member of the Million Dollar Corporation and at the Royal Rumble 1995, he assisted in the thefting of Paul Bearer’s urn. Paul Bearer also accompanied The Undertaker to the ring for this match I remember this match too.

As King Kong Bundy entered, they run an interview between Todd Pettengill and some NFL player about a match that is other than this one.

This was the debut of the elaborate entrance at WrestleMania. Lightning sound effects and a strobe effect. Also this was the first mention of The Undertaker being undefeated at WrestleMania.

The Bell

Taker avoided a charge and started his attempts to get Bundy off the ground. It took a few clotheslines. The highlight early in the match is Taker stealing the urn back from Ted Dibiase and giving it to Paul Bearer. Bearer then used it as a spotlight briefly. Kama stole the urn back from Paul Bearer. He promised to melt it down and make it into a chain. Meanwhile back in the ring. Bundy was beating on The Undertaker. After several minutes Taker hit a powerslam and a clothesline and got the three count

The Final Verdict

I do not understand the psychology of Ted Dibiase bringing the urn to the ring. It gave the Undertaker strength. Perhaps that is why Bundy lost. Because the urn was there for even a short time. The most interesting part of the match was what went on outside with Kama, Ted Dibiase, Paul Bearer and the urn.
Undertaker shouldn’t have lost here as the feud was kind of cheesy. I think a match with Kama would have been better than with Bundy. Bundy seemed like a filler. I enjoyed the Kama feud being started, it could have come at a better time than DURING this match but it showed forward thinking.
