“He’s Killed Him”: UFC Fans Lose Their Mind as Fighter Pulls Off The Undertaker’s Extremely Dangerous Move

Early childhood memories of pro wrestling for wrestling fans serve as happy nostalgia. The superstars of the late 90s and early 2000s are the icons for today’s generation’s WWE superstars. And fans can see their impact in other forms of combat sports.

Old videos of The Undertaker serve as a time capsule for pro wrestling enthusiasts. Fans of ‘The Deadman’ must have recreated his ‘Tombstone Piledriver’ finishing move on their friends. Similarly, one UFC fighter decided to imitate The Taker’s finishing move in his own match.

This happened when during Dana White’s Contender Series when an upcoming fighter gave the Piledriver to his opponent. Darrius Flowers who is also known as ‘Beast Mode’ in the MMA world, won the match with The Undertaker’s finishing move. He made his opponent Amiran Gogoladze tap out after giving him Tombstone.

After his match, people went wild over social media comparing his move with The Undertaker’s Tombstone.

There is a possibility the finisher Flowers performed wasn’t inspired by Taker’s Tombstone, but it didn’t stop the fans from comparing both the finishers.

One account related Undertaker’s gloves to MMA.

Many other social media users related the move to The Undertaker’s Tombstone.

A Twitter account with the fighter’s name (possibly Flowers’ account) retweeted the post by the UFC.

The athlete received praise from many fight fans.

As expected, several more fans kept comparing his finisher move to the Tombstone.

One person called it the blend of AJ Styles and Undertaker’s finishers.

Clearly, the MMA fighter got the spotlight. Darrius Flowers got the UFC contract from Dana White and things are looking good for the 28-year-old. Flowers successfully impressed the audience in Dana White’s Contender Series to get that contract from White.

‘Beast Mode’ has won 12 out of 18 matches in his professional MMA career. Flowers is currently an undefeated streak of 4 matches.
