** Specifically, one of the bursts of flame that are part of his entrance went off almost directly underneath him instead of when he was already past, whether through timing issues or technical problems isn't know. Rather than (understandably) freaking out, he just tossed off his smoldering jacket, recovered from the stumble before emerging from the smoke and fog, and continued his [[ImplacableMan unnervingly slow walk]] down to the ring.

* Taker's match with TripleH at Wrestlemania XXVII. The amount of punishment both men absorbed went into BeyondTheImpossible territory, to the point that Taker (who won the match by submission, of all things) was the one that had to be carted out of the stadium.

** A lot of people see this (deservingly) as Mick Foley's Crowning Moment but Mick admits in his first book that Undertaker's immense expertise at what he does and professionalism that kept the match going after the infamous chokeslam through the cage. Also, both climbing the cell (twice) and then dropping from it to the ring with a broken foot is pretty badass.

* Undertaker also gets one for calling Vince out backstage on the Montreal Screwjob. Long story short, he put Vince on the spot and said most of the talent would be prepared to walk out unless amends were made. He allegedly did it a few months later before ''[=WrestleMania=] 14'' (where WWF Champion Shawn Michaels was facing Steve Austin): he allegedly told Vince that if another screwjob happened, Vince would have to answer to ''him.''
