You didn't think we'd let a year go by without a Royal Rumble Watch-Along, did ya? That's right - it's a very special BONUS episode of Talking Taker as we're joined by Mike and J.V. of The Bottom Line Wrestling Cast for a 25 Year Anniversary look back at the 1998 Royal Rumble win of Stone Cold Steve Austin! The Dead Man doesn't have anything to do with this match, but that's ok because we're joined by the preeminent Stone Cold experts of the podcasting world for a fun free for all commentary over this classic Rumble match. Cue up the match on Peacock and watch along as we discuss the 3 Faces Of Foley making their appearances, the many men who don't stand a chance in this match, "The Cheek" himself Ahmed Johnson and his "epic" face-off with Phineas Godwinn, embarrassing memories of ourselves in 1998, Phineas knocking out referee Jack Doan, Steve Blackman and his big brother Kurrgan, Chainsaw Charlie, Tom Brandi, Los Boricuas, Ken Shamrock, Marc Mero, Mike Tyson and Cold Stone, and so much more.

We've got some true fireworks in store as we light up a new year on this month's Talking Taker! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their encyclopedic exploration digging up The Dead Man as we celebrate the 25 year anniversary of the greatest Casket Match of all time - The Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels from Royal Rumble 1998. It's the epic finale of the late 90s era of their rivalry and a perfect distillation of the early Attitude Era where multiple storylines converge including setting the seeds for Taker's feud with his brother Kane. These 2 have never had a bad match (well, until 2018) so we encourage you to watch along with us on Peacock. But as always it's just as entertaining if you can't. Along the way we'll discuss some very late 90s specific memories of watching this PPV, Shawn's packet of powder hidden in his pants, the parallels with the 1994 Rumble Casket Match, some highly unsafe special effects, hilarious fans in the crowd, and so much more. Plus before we get to the match we'll reflect on The Undertaker's epic 2022 including his many tv specials and of course his Hall Of Fame induction. Download, enjoy, and Taker Easy!
