That Rascal Shawn Michaels set Undertaker on FIRE!



There was talk of having Shawn Michaels take responsibility for the pyrotechnics incident that happened at the Elimination Chamber PPV. The decision was made prior to RAW, and that idea was shot down ultimately.

One of the key things in the decision making was going to be based off how their camera angles had the incident, if it came off impressive, the idea would have been used on TV. That is of course if that tool Zimmerman hadn't said it only amounted to a sunburn.

It was in fact, not a sunburn. It was pretty serious. Undertaker had first and second degree burns on his chest and neck. Those within WWE consider him very lucky, having escaped with the burns he had, as opposed to how badly it could have been.

Despite the burns, Undertaker continued to work through the match in tremendous pain, and even refused to shorten the match. The sleeve of his jacket and part of his hand had melted when the pyro went off prematurely.

That’s scary! I can’t believe he went on to wrestle in the match. I hope he makes a quick, full recovery from this ordeal.
