This is going to be my 4th time seeing Undertaker live, although only the 2nd televised time I've seen him.
Who's seen the Undertaker and what were the matches?
It was like this Road to Wrestlemania 15 house show the first time. He fought Bossman. It was pretty cool to see him even though you know it's.... Bossman.
At least Abyss zazzes up the old Bossman Slam a bit.
Anyway so I also saw Undertaker vs someone I can't remember at another house show. Maybe Big Show or something I am not sure on that one.
Definitely saw Undertaker vs Kurt Angle on Smackdown in 06 and that was great. They shortened it a bit for TV. They went a good 20 minutes. I didn't know Undertaker could chain wrestle like that. He's the fucking man.
I think he's going to wreck shit at Survivor Series. The promo he cut on Smackdown about how he debuted at Survivor Series and how the title is the Holy Grail of Rasslin' etc etc was pretty righteous. Undertaker's not really one for long winded promos like that unless he's about to fuckin' wreck somebody.
There's a part of me of course that'd like to see Jericho be a sneaky fuck and break his code. Jericho will break the walls DOWWWWN! That'd be awesome to say I was there when Jericho took the title from the Undertaker.

I saw him last year for the first time at No Mercy. He faced off against the Big Show and lost.

I saw him in May. He and Jeff Hardy beat Matt Hardy and Umaga. It was awesome. He went nuts on the ring apron at one point, throwing water everywhere. Fucking loved it.
I should see him tomorrow night too! He'll probably be facing CM Punk. I'll be torn on who to support, but I'll more than likely back Taker.
Sadly, I get the feeling this could be the last time I get to see him live.

1) Survivor Series; November 24, 1993 at the Boston Garden in Boston, Massachusetts
The All-Americans (Lex Luger, The Undertaker, Rick Steiner and Scott Steiner) (with Paul Bearer) defeated The Foreign Fanatics (Yokozuna, Crush, Ludvig Borga and Quebecer Jacques) (with Jim Cornette, Johnny Polo, and Mr. Fuji).
------------------------------------------------
2) 1995 - The WWF held the final wrestling show at the Boston Garden in Boston, Massachusetts.
- The Undertaker (with Paul Bearer) defeated Kama.
First time was in Chicago, they taped Raw on Saturday and aired it on Friday due to Tennis or the Westminster Dog Show. I saw HBK cut a promo on Taker hyping up their HIAC match and Taker interrupted. There was a dark match main event between he and Bret Hart in which Hart won due to DQ.
The second time he fought the Rock at KOTR 99 for the WWF title, this time Taker retained due to outside shenanigans.
The 3rd time was on Survivor Series 2001, he was on Team WWF facing The Alliance in that awesome Survivor Series match to end the Invasion. He stopped Chris Jericho from further attacking The Rock and costing Team WWF the match.

Three times. One was the Smackdown where Kurt beat Booker T and he came out with the rest of the roster to help. Then the worst match of his career with Kane against Kronic at No Mercy 2001. The last time was at Smackdown in 2005 where he saved Benoit from getting a beating by JBL's cabinet. It was awesome, JBL says Benoit will now face a wrestling god. Lights turn off and Taker proceeds to kill bitches. In the main event against JBL he took an RKO from Orton, who was drafter that night. I should see him the Monday after Survivor Series, but that is usually when it takes his time off.

Was that Smackdown in DC? Did Kurt Angle do the pledge of allegiance?

Once at a house show in 99 vs Austin. I wasn't even into wrestling at the time, a buddy of mine had free tickets & his company's suite so a bunch of us went just to take advantage of the freeness. Then I discovered the aswesomeness of the Rock & started watching full time.
It was the Smackdown in Pittsburgh before Rock showed up the next Monday Night. I forgot about SummerSlam 2004 seeing him live, but I have blocked most of that event from memory.

Max Power on existence: if middlehead is, there is no need for me.
Once at a Smackdown taping in 2007 during his brief World title reign. I think he teamed up with Batista against Mr. Kennedy and Finlay.
Despite 2007 Smackdown being the reason I started watching wrestling again and that being only one of three times I've seen wrestling live ever, I honestly don't remember anything about it other than that match and the fact that Deuce and Domino failed to win the tag titles but won them the very next week.

I saw Undertaker live at some Smackdown house show in 2004. I saw him face Brock Lesnar in that Biker Chain Match at No Mercy 2003. Also saw his AWESOME match with Kurt Angle at No Way Out 2006. The atmosphere for that match was fucking epic.
Saw UT vs. Batista in the Last Man Standing match at Backlash 2006.
Also vs. Edge at Wrestlemania 24.
And against Matt Hardy when they taped the first episode of Superstars.
The Superstars match, strangely enough, was the best experience since we didn't know he'd be there. The lights go out, that gong sounds and the crowd completely loses it. For every pop I've ever heard at a wrestling event, still nothing compares to when that first gong sound hits.

I've seen him several times, but the one that really sticks out is a Raw from Oklahoma City where he turned heel and made JR join the VKM "ass kissing" club. It might have been the worst segment I've seen in person.

JR used to say "how do you learn how to fall off a twenty foot ladder" in those horrible "Don't Try This At Home" things. Undertaker taught me how. It's actually pretty easy, he just fucking threw me off the fucking ladder. Then Kane set me on fire. It was one of my better birthday presents.

I've seen him a few times live. I was at Wrestlemania 20 when he 'returned' and it was freaking awesome. I actually got an autograph and a handshake at an autograph signing before Summerslam 2000 in Raleigh. The craziest thing was how freaking big his hands are. When I shook his hand, I couldn't wrap my fingers around the edge of his hand. He hands were wider than mine are long.

I've seen him in two casket matches. One against Henry at WM 22, and another at a house show against Heidenreich in 2005. Saw him do that sweet ass dive over the casket at WM, that shit is awesome.
In 1991 vs. Jimmy Snuka and Greg Valentine at two seperate shows In 1996 vs. Mankind, and 2 or 3 matches against jobbers (superstars taping) Twice since, but I was underwhelmed.
I saw him several times back during the Corporate Ministry days against Austin in Raw shows, and a few house shows. I saw him again a few times during the BikerTaker period, when he went heel, but I haven't gotten to hit another live show with him in it since he came back as the Deadman at WM XX.

First was at a WWF New York autograph signing the day before King of the Ring 2001. Had to wait a couple extra hours due to a mishap with the flight, but he got there.
Second was at a SmackDown taping in Jan 2002, the first SmackDown after HHH came back from the quad injury. After a bunch of the main eventers at the Royal Rumble beat the shit out of each other, HHH came out and Pedigree'd Big Show and the episode ended with Undertaker standing on the platform looking at the ring.
Third was a house show in 2002 after Undertaker won the Undisputed belt. He beat Hogan in a rematch of Judgment Day 2002 at the Garden.
And the last time was at another house show, in a cage match against Brock Lesnar at the Garden. He lost that one.

- Raw House Show (i think in 03-04) when he & Booker T went against Lesnar & The Big Show. I forgot who won. After the match, he had motioned for Booker to do the spinaroonie lol.
- SD House Show (in 05) when he & Nathan Jones beat Big Show & A-Train. Meh.
- Survivor Series 08 when it was him vs. Batista in HIAC. Could've had better seats.
- The SD after WM 24 when he & Kane faced off. Good back-and-forth match.
