Furthermore, Taker reflected on how he and Yokozuna hung out just before entering the ring. He opened about the origins of the famous BSK, that such card games and Dominos paved the path for the legendary team. ” That’s the origins of the famous BSK. Dominos and the group of guys, kind of light-minded guys that hung out together,” said ‘The Ministry of Darkness’.

DIVE DEEPER

Reminiscing the valuable memories, The Undertaker explained what tricks he used to defeat the Samoan. He said that Yoko was “a different kinda cat”, and it would have made no difference even if one does a lot of moves on him. So, to get back at him, Taker would make Yokozuna run around the ring and chase him, to make him tired.

The soon-to-be Hall of Famer expressed how much the ‘Maximus Wild’ meant to him. “Big Rod was a man’s man. You know, the Samoans, man. They don’t play. So, I tell you what, I miss him and the good times we shared together.”

Back in the 90s, the Undertaker and the late Hall of Famer played significant roles in each other’s careers. The ‘Deadman’ will be inducted to the Hall of Fame class 2022 on April 1st.
