The best thing about Taker's podcast is that he corrects things that have been wrongly said about him. He did not appear in the media or in interviews to correct these matters. For example, there were rumors that Taker hated CM Punk which he denied. He even said he was proud of his match at WrestleMania 29.

[@shaneomacdaddy]

And also on the Stone Cold podcast years ago that the rumors of him starting his wrestling 🤼🏻‍♂️ career in 1984 and him being trained by Don Jardine were incorrect and that he added that he thinks that he began training in 1986 under Buzz Sawyer when he was asked if it was true 👍🏻 .

I saw a clip the other day where Taker was saying that it’s his job to make this stuff look as real as possible, even if it isn’t, and safety is a primary concern, that he’d go backstage and have wrestlers ask him if he actually got injured. I presume that goes both ways. I think fans can really only comment up to a certain point. If it looks real, or brutal, chances are, the wrestlers are just doing their jobs well, and they know how to do them. What I’d worry about is if wrestlers came out and said, hey, this guy is unsafe. No idea what he’s doing. But nobody’s saying that about Taker. They’re saying they got taken care of, and it was a good experience for them. Add to that the pre-CTE knowledge era. Lots of judgement by people living in a different era, who’ve never done anything like this before and can’t know.

The only AEW clip I've ever seen and ever will see is a guy doing a Canadian Destroyer off of a ladder held on the ropes onto 4 stacked tables which he basically entirely missed and ended up landing on Dante Martin and breakng his leg completely in half which was the worst injury I've ever seen in a wrestling ring. If that is what some people think is pro wrestling now I don't know what to say.

[@Absinthexx7]

That’s a problem with a lot of wrestlers right now. I always used to watch the show and in the back of my mind I trust that they’re professionals and they’re probably going to be fine. With a lot of wrestling (I’ll just say it, mostly in aew) it’s hard to watch without cringing because I don’t trust that they aren’t going to injure themselves for no reason, and I don’t want to feel like I’m supporting it. Even guys like danielson who’s one of my favorite wrestlers and I’m certain he knows how to protect himself, just chooses not to and makes it where I can’t watch most of his matches. It’s pretty sad

[@that.canadian.vaper.guyTCVG]

I agree with the majority of comments, Taker just ALWAYS laid in the chair shots. He *always* laid them in, and he *ALWAYS* made sure that when *he was taking one* that they SWUNG like they were up at bat in the final inning. In no way did Taker take out any personal beef with Kanyon. But at the same time, if you told me that Vince or the office told Taker to go out there and put some mustard on his shots for this segment, i wouldnt think twice about that. Because WWE and Vince back then were very petty and extremely peculiar about how they handled their business. So if Kanyon pissed off the office and accused them if they didn't sign him and properly push him because he was gay, i could definitely see Vince sending Taker out there to lay out Kanyon. But i just cant see it, this was during the time when Kanyon was tryig to hide his sexuality, and apparently it was a poorly kept secret. But even in the Dark Side Of The Ring episode, Kanyon was extremely paranoid about this. But yeah, there's no way that Taker took liberties with Kanyon because he was gay.
