#2: The Undertaker's real brother passed away just before WWE filmed The Boneyard Match

One of the most emotional moments from Undertaker's Last Ride documentary revolves around the moment when Mark Calaway holds in the tears while talking about the death of his older brother, Timothy Calaway, a day before they had to shoot the Boneyard Match.

Tim died due to a heart attack, and it was Undertaker's niece that informed him of the situation. With the burden and responsibility of informing his mother and the rest of his family about what had just happened, The Boneyard Match was an incredibly intense shoot for The Undertaker.

Could you imagine burying someone in a fictional fight a day after someone close to you has passed away?

It was also a moment that made him realize just how important it is being with one's family.

Shooting the Boneyard Match was also a very physical task for The Undertaker. The Deadman cut himself open five minutes into the bout when he shoved his hand through a hearse window.

At the end of the day, The Boneyard Match ended up being an excellent achievement in terms of entertainment and production. It will go down in history as one of the best cinematic matches WWE has ever produced.
