Legendary WWE star recalls walking in on The Undertaker when he was naked: "Just staring us down"

There are a lot of stories about The Undertaker hazing the younger guys back in the WWE Attitude. One such story was recently shared by Matt Hardy, who recalled walking in on The Deadman when he was naked.

Matt and Jeff Hardy rose to prominence in WWE during the famous Attitude Era. However, the two had to face a lot of hazing during the time, as was the case with many younger stars. During a recent edition of The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast, the legendary tag team champion shared an anecdote about the time he and Jeff arrived late to a show because their flight was canceled.

Hardy revealed that it was their third week on the road after signing with WWE and they got bullied by the veterans including JBL and The Undertaker for arriving late at a show.

"I remember JBL said, 'Well hell, The Hardyz have been on the road for three weeks. [...] They think they’re the champs, that they’re more important than The Undertaker, then the Stone Colds, than all the other top stars here because they just show up whenever the hell they want to.' He continued, 'Alright, well, since you’re such a big-timer [...] the locker room's right over there. That's the locker room you need.' I was like, 'Oh, thank you,' and we scurry, we run over there with our bags. We’re nervous as sh*t, right. We’re new and the last thing we wanted to do was pi*s off these guys. We take our bags, and we roll into the room, and when the door opens and we take our bags inside, The Undertaker is in the room by himself, back in the corner, naked, wrapping his knees."

The former WWE Superstar added that once they entered, they were not allowed to leave the room by some of the older guys. Hardy also stated that their bags were missing when they returned to the locker room after their match:

"A couple other guys, they made a wall where we couldn’t walk out of this room. We go, 'Okay.' Now 'Taker is just looking at us, naked, just staring us down. We’re changing, getting dressed. 'Okay, sorry, we’re gonna leave now, we're going to the ring.' We go to the ring, we do our match, all good. We come to the back, and we go in that room. Taker’s bag is still there where he dressed. He isn’t there, but our bags, where they were, they weren’t there." [H/T- Fightful]
