Only a select few WWE Superstars have kicked out of The Undertaker’s Tombstone over the years, so it is unthinkable that somebody would completely no-sell the move and get straight back to their feet.

However, that is exactly what happened in the early stages of The Undertaker’s career when he went one-on-one with Hulk Hogan at WWE Survivor Series 1991.

As WWE commentator Gorilla Monsoon pointed out at the time, nobody had ever gotten back up after The Undertaker landed his famous move.

That was, of course, until Hogan received it. The Hulkster laid on the mat for one second before he “Hulked up” and took control of the match again.

Hogan no sold the Tombstone?! I guess that was a precursor for some modern day indy wrestlers. 😂😂😂 #SurvivorSeries pic.twitter.com/cb7v12kkca

Ultimately, The Undertaker had the last laugh. He hit another Tombstone on Hogan onto a steel chair, courtesy of help from Ric Flair, to win the WWE Championship for the first time in his career.

The second Tombstone caused real-life animosity between the two men, according to WWE director Bruce Prichard, as Hogan felt that his opponent botched the move.

“I heard all that and I watched it back, several times, and it looked like that ‘Taker could have probably gotten run over by a mack truck and he had such a tight hold of Hogan that there was nothing that was going to happen to Hulk. It is what it is.” [H/T 411mania, quotes via Something to Wrestle With]

Nine days later, Hogan regained the WWE Championship from The Undertaker in a rematch at WWE This Tuesday in Texas.
