5 Interesting Facts you didn't know about WWE's Phenom - The Undertaker

#2 The Undertaker was a part of the highest-rated RAW segment of all time

While many fans think that the "This Is Your Life" segment involving The Rock and Mick Foley is the highest-rated RAW segment in the show's history, that record is actually held by a match between The Undertaker and Stone Cold Steve Austin that took place on June 28, 1999 edition of RAW.

The following is an excerpt from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter from July 31, 2012.

"June 28, 1999: A match where Steve Austin won the WWF title from The Undertaker in Charlotte drew the largest rating and audience to ever witness a pro wrestling match or for that matter, any pro wrestling segment, ever on U.S. cable television. The match did a 9.5 rating, which was 10.72 million viewers. Perhaps the most impressive is that one out of every six television sets in the U.S. that had cable that was on during that time was watching that match. Because for more than a decade, Vince Russo has made it a talking point to say how the “The Is Your Life: Rock,” segment was the highest rated segment in history (it did an 8.4 quarter), to show how skits outdraw matches, it’s become a talking point how that was the highest rated segment in Raw history. Actually there were a handful of different quarter hours that beat that total, including most of the second hour of the May 10, 1999 show."
