"He takes the most perfect backdrop" - The Undertaker recalls WWE veteran hilariously wrecking his motorcycle
The Undertaker recalled the time WWE veteran Mideon wrecked his motorcycle.
The Deadman had multiple legendary personas during his run with the company. Outside the ring, The Undertaker was a different person who had hobbies such as listening to rock music and collecting vintage motorbikes.
Mideon, who was a part of The Undertaker's stable The Ministry of Darkness, was one of his close friends. In a recent edition of Table for 3, The Deadman shared a hilarious story about Mideon wrecking one of his vintage motorbikes:
"So we get it back up on the asphalt, he takes off again. It goes in a gradual circle. He's off about 100 yards off me and he goes off again... So the back wheel hits the asphalt and the front wheel just jerks to the right. He goes a** over the tea kettle over the ape hangers. He takes the most perfect backdrop you have ever seen."
After the crash, Taker described the condition of the bike and how Mideon reacted to it.
"He lands over the asphalt and bounces back on his feet and goes 'I'm okay' but the bike, it's going on eBay 4'O clock that afternoon... The right side of the gas tank is completely caved in... So I'm looking at the bike and looking at all the damage and I finally look up at him and make eye contact with him and he goes 'I'll go pack my bags'"
As hilarious as the story was, The Undertaker was glad that the bike was not completely destroyed after Mideon's glorious flip.
