#1. The Undertaker catches fire - WWE Elimination Chamber 2010
The Undertaker recently retired from wrestling after a 30-year WWE career, but that could have been cut short prematurely just over a decade ago when he was the victim of a freak accident.
The Deadman was making his way to the ring as part of WWE's Elimination Chamber match when one of his pyros exploded too close to him and he caught fire. Undertaker's chest was exposed to the fire and the video above shows that The Deadman's coat also caught fire.
Undertaker threw off his coat as he made his way down the ramp, but was still able to take part in the match despite the shocking start. The former WWE Champion recently spoke to Stone Cold Steve Austin on his Broken Skull Sessions about that night.
"I knew I had to sit in that pod for 20 minutes. And then I had to work another 20 minutes after getting in. And I'm trying to assess where I'm at physically with the burns. Because all I could smell was my burnt hair and flesh."
The ring crew at the time handed Undertaker several bottles of water whilst he was in his pod to help him cool down whilst he waited to be included in the match, but it wasn't enough to stop the pain.
"Despite all that water, every time I look down, my skin is bubbling up more and more. I'm trying my hardest to stay focused and I'm also thinking in my head, 'I am about to kill this pyro guy. I'm usually a very forgiving and understanding person. But a couple of weeks prior [to that incident], I had a conversation with the pyro guy and told him, 'look, the pyro burst is too close. I'm starting to feel it. I said lets back them out."
The former WWE Champion didn't go on to win the match, instead, he was pinned by Chris Jericho, who won the World Heavyweight Championship.
