I acquired this item while sitting ringside at a television taping on Tuesday June 18th 2002 for WWE SMACKDOWN!, at Arco Arena in Sacramento CA from a WWE employee after the show. Episode aired Thursday June 20th 2002 (Season4 Ep25, see photos).Then Undisputed WWE Champion American Badass Undertaker wore this bandana for the entire episode!
He fought Kurt Angle in the main event and scrapped with Triple H and Hulk Hogan until the end of the episode when Triple H pedigrees him and the bandana is left next to the Undertaker in the middle of the ring. After the show was over I noticed the bandana still in the middle of the ring. I asked a WWE crew member (I believe he was a photographer) if he would snag it for me and I was told to wait a bit. He eventually leaned under the bottom rope and tossed the bandana in my direction, but it landed on the ring’s side of the barricade. I had to lean over it and stretch to reach it. The security crew made a quick fuss but realized I wasn’t trying to get into the ring or do anything crazy. As soon as I got a hold of it I raised it up and the remaining ringside crowd all cheered. Then of course, I put it on! The bandana was soaking wet with perspiration and probably water, when I got it and showed signs of multiple use. I remember it smelling pretty strong, and it is highly likely that it was worn for several other previous tv appearances other than those listed below. Undertaker’s following RAW tv appearance has him wearing a new red bandana that replaced this one. Multiple hard copy photos from the entire event (6-20-02) will be included with this sale (some of which are shown).
*Bandana remains in the original knot/fold as worn by the Undertaker and has been stored with extreme care for nearly twenty years!*
****Undertaker ring worn gear is extremely rare and highly sought after by collectors. His recent retirement also signifies that his gear will become that much harder to find. This is the only piece of his I have ever been lucky enough to own. If you have any questions please ask. Good luck and happy bidding!****
