On the latest edition of the Table Talk podcast, D-Von Dudley shared a funny story about The Undertaker. It turns out that The Deadman is a big fan of the song “Kung Fu Fighting” by Carl Douglas.
Here is what D-Von said (h/t to Wrestling INC for the quote below):
“It was WrestleMania in Toronto, and me and Taker, with my ex-wife at the time, we went out to eat with him. He was with his ex-wife at the time Sara. We were at Planet Hollywood in Toronto. I’ll never forget it. We’re at Planet Hollywood, and we’re all talking. We’re just shooting the stuff. The whole nine. All of a sudden, the song ‘Kung Fu Fighting’ came on, but the beginning of the song where it starts [D-Von sings the beginning of the song]. We’re talking, and he hears that. I was in the middle of saying something, and all of sudden he just stops.
I look at my ex-wife like, ‘Did I say something wrong? What the hell?’ I looked at Sara and said, ‘I might have messed up.’ All of sudden, when that part came on, ‘Everybody was kung fu fighting,’ he just stood up in front of the whole restaurant [D-Von imitates Undertaker’s dancing]. We were just like, ‘What the hell?’ He goes, ‘Yeah, I love that song.”
D-Von also revealed that ‘Taker was always kind to the guys in ECW:
“Taker is every bit of 6’10”. The nicest guy in the world. He came over to us when half of the guys back then didn’t think ECW shouldn’t have been anywhere near the Manhattan Center when WWE was there. Taker was welcoming us with open arms. He made us feel comfortable, and that’s the one thing about Taker. If you ever know anyone that knows Undertaker that have met him for the first time and has been in the locker room, he will make you feel at home. Just don’t disrespect the man and you’ll live to see another day.”
