01:46:11,197 [Ross] I'll tell you, it's so hard to predict 2274 01:46:11,264 --> 01:46:14,268 because there's no precedent for this matchup. 2275 01:46:14,335 --> 01:46:18,138 Nothing like this has ever-- has ever happened before. 2276 01:46:18,205 --> 01:46:22,142 I'm very surprised that Gorilla Monsoon has sanctioned this matchup even though-- 2277 01:46:22,209 --> 01:46:24,344 [Vince] Well, it was a Backlot Brawl, I mean, at WrestleMania 2278 01:46:24,411 --> 01:46:25,913 with "Rowdy" Roddy Piper and Goldust. 2279 01:46:25,980 --> 01:46:28,249 -That was different. -[Ross] Well, yeah, it

2282 01:46:34,788 --> 01:46:38,826 There's no pads, there's no ring, it's a concrete block wall, 2283 01:46:39,727 --> 01:46:43,898 concrete floor, all the accoutrements that you would only find in a boiler room. 2284 01:46:43,964 --> 01:46:45,199 It's so hard to predict. 2285 01:46:45,266 --> 01:46:48,001 I'll say this, neither one is impossible, 2286 01:46:48,067 --> 01:46:50,536 in my opinion, to come out without injury. 2287 01:46:50,603 --> 01:46:52,973 [Mr. Perfect] Somebody's career could definitely be ended tonight. 2288 01:46:53,040 --> 01:46:55,576 And I think Mankind has the Undertaker's number. 2289 01:46:55,643 --> 01:46:56,844 [Vince] He could very well. 2290 01:46:56,911 --> 01:46:59,679 He has to a certain extent, thus far, certainly more so 2291 01:46:59,746 --> 01:47:02,683 than any other WWE Superstar. 2292 01:47:02,750 --> 01:47:06,519 Indeed, Mankind shows very little respect for The Undertaker. 2293 01:47:06,587 --> 01:47:10,758 And there, Paul Bearer, who during the free for all 2294 01:47:11,258 --> 01:47:15,728 had a number of salient comments to say about possession of the urn. 2295 01:47:15,795 --> 01:47:18,999 [Ross] He certainly did, and he-- and he-- and he directed those comments 2296 01:47:19,066 --> 01:47:22,036 to The Undertaker primarily in the interview we had the opportunity 2297 01:47:22,102 --> 01:47:23,536 to conduct in the ring. 2298 01:47:23,603 --> 01:47:26,407 I think Paul Bearer, quite frankly, is very, very concerned 2299 01:47:26,473 --> 01:47:30,544 for The Undertaker, more in this matchup, and perhaps rightfully so. 2300 01:47:30,611 --> 01:47:33,179 [Vince] And holding that sacred vessel for The Undertaker, 2301 01:47:33,246 --> 01:47:36,650 as the match now is ready to begin, ladies and gentlemen. 2302
