Mr Kennedy has spilled the beans on his “Last Ride” match The Undertaker in the WWE.
The former Mr Money in the Bank battled the WWE Hall of Famer at WWE Armageddon 2006. This was in a “Last Ride” match, where the object of the match was to put your opponent in a hearse and drive them out of the building.
While The Undertaker won the match, Mr Kennedy still managed to throw him off the stage. The Deadman suffered from the 15-foot bump in the spot that the bout is most remembered for to this day.
Mr Kennedy recently sat down with Rewind Recap Relive on YouTube, and was asked about his match with The Undertaker at Armageddon 2006. The former TNA World Champion explained how Vince McMahon offered to take the 15 foot bump off the stage to show The Undertaker that it was safe to do. He and Mr Kennedy refused the offer and Mr Kennedy ended up throwing The Undertaker off the stage anyway.

“Michael Hayes was our producer, and it was me, The Undertaker, and Michael standing by that entryway. There was this big scaffolding that connected over the walkway where you came out. Michael was like, ‘Do you think you could take a chokeslam off there?’ You know, we were figuring out what bump I could take that would be impressive.” Mr Kennedy said.
“I remember Vince came by, and Michael just said, ‘What do you think about a chokeslam off there?’ Vince stopped for a second, looked up at the scaffolding, and said, ‘It would be far more impressive if Taker went off there.’ Taker just looked at him like, “You motherf****r!””
“Then Vince goes,’“You want me to go up there? I’ll jump off there!’ And we were like, “No, no, I’m good. In the end, we came up with the spot where I ended up throwing Taker off that thing instead,” added Kennedy.
