5 WWE Superstars that intentionally ticked the Undertaker off

#2 Vince Russo

Is anyone surprised?

For a man who was considered as the ‘mastermind’ behind the attitude era, Vince Russo managed to get on the wrong side of many of the Superstars that worked for the WWE. And from his own admission, he didn’t hold too many of them in high regard either.

Russo has always come across as a character with a massive chip on his shoulder, and perhaps because he was never a wrestler himself, he usually went out of his way to let the performers know who they worked for.

And who better than the Undertaker to make an example of?

Apparently, Russo made him wrestle for days on end in physically gruelling and demanding matches, despite knowing that Taker was carrying a number of niggling injuries that needed a less intense workload to heal up fully.

Being the consummate professional that he was, Taker never brought it up directly to Russo then but when the cat was finally let out of the bag years later, Russo denied any wrongdoing on his part, professing that he wasn’t aware of the injuries and that he held nothing but respect for the Deadman.

Like all of his other excuses, though, this one fell flat too.
