The sport’s governing body shared a video of the Australia batter collapsing onto the ground during his historic knock while fighting cramps. The all-rounder got back to his feet and continued with the game.
However, there was a unique twist in the video of the moment as the original audio was edited and WWE commentary played over it instead. We can hear commentator Michael Cole talking about The Undertaker and the latter’s entrance music.

It is pertinent to mention that Mark Callaway, aka ‘The Undertaker’, is considered one of the greatest WWE superstars. His “Deadman” gimmick is nothing less than iconic.
The “Deadman” persona showed him “rising from the dead” and beating opponents relentlessly even when the odds were against him.
Mark Callaway was inducted for his contributions to the WWE four years ago.
