The Undertaker names his dream five-man WWE Survivor Series team
The Undertaker made his televised WWE debut at Survivor Series 1990. In a recent podcast episode, the wrestling legend named four in-ring competitors he would team up with in a traditional elimination match at the event.
Although the Survivor Series concept has changed in recent years, the annual show used to feature several four-on-four and five-on-five matches. In The Deadman's first Survivor Series appearance, he joined forces with Greg Valentine, The Honky Tonk Man, and Ted DiBiase Sr. The quartet secured a big win over Bret Hart, Dusty Rhodes, Jim Neidhart, and Koko B. Ware.
On Six Feet Under w/Mark Calaway, The Undertaker named Andre the Giant, Kane, and Stone Cold Steve Austin on his dream team. He also joked that he would recruit Koko B. Ware to make up for almost injuring him at Survivor Series 1990:
"We'll take Kane, Stone Cold, Andre," The Undertaker said. "Hey, I'm in it to win it, brother! This ain't a beauty pageant. I got one more. Just to make things right, Koko B. Ware. Full circle moment right there. I came all the way back. Make it right. I will help him out, I promise!" [46:34 – 47:17]
The 2022 WWE Hall of Famer wrestled at 17 Survivor Series events between 1990 and 2015. He also appeared at Survivor Series 2020 as part of a Final Farewell ceremony to mark his retirement and 30 years in WWE.
The Undertaker's Survivor Series dream team honorable mentions
Between 2009 and 2012, The Phenom defeated Shawn Michaels at back-to-back WrestleMania events before achieving the same feat against Triple H.
If Koko B. Ware is not ready to compete, The Undertaker jokingly added that Michaels or Triple H could join his dream team:
"And if Koko wasn't available, I'd probably take either Shawn or Triple H, probably, if Koko couldn't make it." [47:50 – 47:58]
The WWE icon also opened up about the opponent who refused to receive his unique pinfall after a Tombstone Piledriver.
