The Undertaker’s commitment to giving his all for the fans has made him a legendary figure in wrestling, though it hasn’t been without its challenges. He has now threatened to slap anyone who claims he’s afraid of cucumbers.
The Undertaker has always been open about his dislike for cucumbers, so much so that fellow wrestlers once played a prank by filling a casket with them. The reason behind his dislike for cucumbers was also revealed.
During an episode of his Six Feet Under podcast, a user named dragonchaser joked that a cucumber should have ended The Undertaker’s legendary streak. The Undertaker didn’t find the joke amusing. He expressed his frustration, saying he’s tired of the cucumber remarks and might slap the next person who suggested he’s afraid of them.
The Undertaker clarified that he’s not scared of cucumbers; he simply can’t stand their taste, smell, or the way they made him feel as a child. He added that he would chase down dragonchaser and beat him with a cucumber.
“I’m getting a little fed up with the cucumber stuff, really. I may just slap the next person who says I’m scared of cucumbers. I’m not scared of cucumbers. I don’t like cucumbers. They taste awful. They smell horrible. They upset my stomach when I was a kid. That’s the only thing. I don’t like cucumbers, I don’t like the smell of them. I ain’t scared of nothing. Why do you have to bring up cucumbers, dragonchaser? I’m gonna chase your ass down the street and beat you with a cucumber. How about that.”
Despite The Undertaker’s bad experience with cucumbers, it hasn’t affected his dominant persona in the slightest. His legendary status in wrestling remains intact, and even his disdain for the vegetable hasn’t diminished his intimidating character.
