On a recent episode of Eric Bischoff’s 83 Weeks podcast, he shared how he would have hypothetically booked the Undertaker in WCW.
This would have been if the Undertaker jumped from WWE to WCW during the Monday Night Wars.
Bischoff first noted that they wouldn’t have been able to use the Undertaker character in WCW, so that would have been a challenge.
Here was Bischoff’s hypothetical booking of the Deadman in WCW (h/t to ProWrestling.com for the quote below):
“Hypothetically, the whole NWO/WCW storyline as I had it in my head, would have played out the way I wanted it. nWo would have officially taken over Monday Nitro, top to
bottom, would have beenan nWo show. WCW would have been over on Thunder, had we had it play out the way I hoped for.Because WCW and Mark Callous (Undertaker) previously had a relationship, I would have probably tried to play off that. I would have probably tried to bring Undertaker/Mark Callous in on the WCW side of the equation to be kind of a counter for Kevin Nash.”
This is a fun scenario. How would you have booked the Undertaker if he jumped to WCW? Let us know in the comment section below.
