Undertaker vs Waylon Mercy would’ve been an EPIC rivalry

I met him in line at a concession stand at a WWF house show in Binghamton NY when I was a kid. It was shortly after he replaced Barry Windham in the US Express. I was scared to say anything to him at first because he was absolutely massive in person. I eventually turned around and waved to him, and he knelt down and talked to me. He was really cool to my dad and I. That was the first time I had ever met a professional wrestler.

John "Laryngitis" I mean Laurinitis who was known as Johnny Ace at the time was standing with Spivey to buy a drink at the elevated patio bar and I was standing behind Spivey. Laurinit"ass" pinches Spivey's backside from the side. Spivey turns around and sees my 5 foot 6 inch 140 pound self and gives me a death glare. My brother was next to me and about 5 foot 9 but all I could think was Spivey chokeslamming me over the railing and 8 feet down to the grass. Luckily, Laurinitis must have sensed something about to go down that might land me in a wheelchair, hospital or grave, Spivey in a Bahamian prison and deportation and himself with a lifetime of guilt. He fessed up and Spivey diffused the situation without a hair harmed on my body. Even one of them gay dudes should know never ever touch Dan Spivey without permission. Not a pleasant feeling.

Back when I went into the Navy my old DI liked to say that there was no such thing as a tough Guy, there was Trained and there was Untrained, and that was about it, some natural advantages could feed into it, size being chief among them, but in the end it mostly came down to the training. Spivey was a big man with training, a tough guy by the definition of the word, there certainly were tougher but he could take care of himself well, same went for Hawk and Animal, they were ex-football linebackers turned bouncers, they hit hard, they knew how to hit hard, and they had a reputation for working stiff. They also were old-school in that they respected others who could play by the same rules, Game recognizes Game. Were they intimidated by Spivey? Probably not, but they did respect him. Now, that deal with Spivey beating the crap out of Adrian Adonis, it would have been more impressive if Adrian had been younger, healthier weight, 1979 Adrian, 1986 Adrian wasn't nearly as big an issue.
