Before Vince McMahon, there was pro wrestling: after Vince McMahon, there was sports entertainment. Somehow, the Undertaker managed to do them both, and excel in them both.
How this guy is still functioning is beyond belief, legendary icon .
I still believe in the theory that Brock Lesnar ate a whole stacked plate of cucumbers at the day of WrestleMania 30, which would logically explain how he was able to end the Streak.

My head-canon: Cucumbers is the mortal part of Undertaker's link to humanity. It is something the Reaper cannot fully control. Cucumber is what freed him and briefly allows him to become the fully human motorcycle driving Dead Man persona. It all connects!!

@Seth Iddings He has a certain time period of enjoying his mortal life as long as the cucumber is still a cucumber. But the longer is in the jar, the more it is turning into a bitter sour pickle. One it completes its transformation from cucumber to picke, he loses his mortal soul and is once again possessed by The Reaper. Basically, like the jarred magic rose from Beauty and the Beast. In his reaper form, he is unbeatable but loses his soul. It was the only reason the streak was broken.

Undertaker got sick after his mother fed him a bowl of cucumber slices that had been soaked in vinegar and it emotionally scarred him. SOURCE: Six Feet Under
My grandma (who’s been watching wwe since literally day one, whole life) met Mic at Comicon and took a picture with him. She didn’t like how she looked and Mic let her cut in line and take another one she liked and they talked for a bit. He was so sweet to her. She finally got to go to wrestlemania last year, and unfortunately passed a few months ago. I’m glad she was able to come full circle and have those moments before her stroke Her wrestling name was Granny Pain. I miss her, she was the best.

I’m happy he finally revealed why at his Undertaker 1 Deadman Show here in Sydney!
He is not afraid of them. He ate so much of them one day that he got sick of them and now he can't stand them. His wife told the story.
"If there's not something special about wrestling the Undertaker, you're in the wrong line of business." I'm not sure if that was meant to be directed at CM Punk but it definitely applies to CM Punk. Dude threw a hissy fit over facing Undertaker at WrestleMania cause he thought he was a bigger deal than Rock vs. Cena, and he thought it was disrespectful that he "only" had an Undertaker match at WrestleMania.

This isn't someone being afraid of cucumbers or being insane. It's just a bodily reaction to having gotten sick after eating cucumbers. I have a similar reaction to a certain dish after being forced to eat it as a child and then going to basketball practice. After working up a sweat during practice I became nauseous and that was the end of me ever eating that again. To this day I cannot be inside a room or house that has the smell of that particular dish. I can eat all of the ingredients on their own, though it did take me 40 years to be able to eat one of the ingredients again, but combine them all together and I instantly feel nauseous all over again. I know quite a few other people that have the same type of reaction to one type of food or the other. Not that uncommon of a reaction, more like the body thinking it needs to go into self preservation mode.

It is a response to help humans avoid ingesting poisonous stuff. Your body links the food with illness and ruins it for you 😢 But dry heaving by just looking at the food is pretty unusual.

Undertaker's INSANE fear of cucumber Mick: "I wouldn't say he was afraid of them".
I know that this is a funny story, but man, when you sit and think about phobias, it really is a strange and interesting topic. I remember as a kid laughing when I'd see shows about people who have phobias of mustard or clowns and other strange objects, but then in college I remember learning about phobias in psychology. It was such a fascinating thing to learn about the different things that trigger different people. I once worked with a guy who had a deep phobia of the honeycomb pattern. I think I learned that because of a picture in a magazine where a guy had the honeycomb pattern tattooed on his neck. And the guy had to leave the room.

Undertaker the goat! Facts!
I first heard about this in an interview between Jim Cornette and Paul Bearer. Apparently before his matches, they'd put a cucumber in his hat and in the fingers of his gloves. Musta been great to watch 'Taker's reaction.

@@tafua_a I'm pretty sure the "incident" was that his mother served him cucumber a lot, but one day he began choking on it and almost died, so every time he was given cucumber he refused to eat it. I don't remember who said it, I think Dustin or Kane, but that's the story I heard on "why" he hates them. I don't think he liked them either as a kid, I'm guessing it was just a "I was forced to eat them as a kid" type of thing and than after choking on a food he already didn't like, he made them his sworn enemy.
When he dies... Plant cucumber on his grave so he won't rise again
This might be the quietest start to a video ever
Mick Foley: I wouldn't say he's afraid of them. Title of video: I beg to differ.

My teacher growing up once told us a story of when he was sick as a kid, his Grandma would feed him tomato soup to get better, he would inevitably barf it all up This created a mental association where if he even smelled tomato soup he would start to barf I’m wondering if the same thing happened to The Undertaker
The reason wrestling was so great back in the day is the same reason these interviews and one person shows are so great now...the people in the business were interesting, weird people. Up until the last 20 years wrestling wasn't a stepping stone to mainstream, pop culture stardom. It was still pretty tied up in the old carnie mentality so it attracted all sorts of outsiders and crazy people who were more interesting than the characters they played. There are still great performers now but only a handful of interesting personalities.

Last year, I completed my collection of all the original Goosebumps titles. All first printings with the original hand painted artwork. Now, as a bookish 90’s kid, this obviously gave a massive boost to my street cred. I’m not ashamed to admit that I overpaid for a few. Most of them I’ve had since I was kid.
He was a Cat in a previous life.
its because Taker is actually a giant cat in a human costume that loves wrestling 😂😂🐱🐱
Cats hate cucumbers too. Mark moves like a cat even though he's huge. You do the math.
That's hilarious. I'm trying to seperate the people from their characters and it really being guys at work. Lol. He was the manager and made his star gag before a match. Lol. Thats freaking hilarious! The dead man won't crack but he will gag if he sees a cucumber. Lol😂😂😂😂
