490 00:20:18,350 --> 00:20:20,319 He was jumping off the roofs of buildings, 491 00:20:20,385 --> 00:20:23,155 dropping elbows on his classmates 492 00:20:23,222 --> 00:20:26,124 whenever he was in

00:20:41,740 on RAW when Mankind shocked the world. 498 00:20:42,341 --> 00:20:46,078 Paul Bearer was trying to secure The Undertaker back into the camp. 499 00:20:46,144 --> 00:20:48,347 Mankind, under the ring, comes out 500 00:20:48,413 --> 00:20:50,949 and burns The Undertaker right in the face 501 00:20:51,016 --> 00:20:53,051 with that huge fireball. 502 00:20:53,819 --> 00:20:57,055 And certainly we were shocked at that. 503 00:20:57,322 --> 00:20:58,757 That was after The Undertaker had won 504 00:20:58,824 --> 00:21:01,526 the WWE title at WrestleMania. 505 00:21:01,593 --> 00:21:06,431 [King] Well, obviously, Ross, it was a master plan by Mankind 506 00:21:06,498 --> 00:21:08,400 and by Paul Bearer to put it in once 507 00:21:08,467 --> 00:21:10,102 and for all to The

--> 00:21:24,716 Mankind again, when he wrestled The Undertaker, 514 00:21:24,783 --> 00:21:26,952 brought some flammable material into the ring. 515 00:21:27,019 --> 00:21:29,955 The Undertaker secured it, and then burnt the face, 516 00:21:30,022 --> 00:21:31,590 the round face of Paul Bearer. 517 00:21:31,657 --> 00:21:33,592 [King] Yeah, they were going for the second time. 518

tables, 521 00:21:39,264 --> 00:21:41,433 and now poor Paul Bearer has been out of action since. 522 00:21:41,500 --> 00:21:43,101 [J.R.] We haven't seen-- we haven't seen 523 00:21:43,168 -->
