The Undertaker: The Nasty Boys Partied With Willie Nelson After WrestleMania VII And Gave Him The Tag Titles

The Undertaker recalls The Nasty Boys partying with Willie Nelson. 

The Nasty Boys (Jerry Saggs & Brian Knobbs) won the WWF Tag Team Titles at WrestleMania VII, defeating The Hart Foundation (Bret Hart & Jim Neidhart). 

Willie Nelson was a special guest at the event, singing “America the Beautiful.” 

After the event was over, the Nasty Boys met up with Willie. 

“The Nasty Boys, after a show, go out on Willie’s bus, and they proceed to get right. They’re getting right with Willie. They’re drinking, they’re smoking, they’re having a good time. They won the Tag Team Titles that night. Before the night was over, they decided they were going to give Willie Nelson the Tag Team Titles. They did. They gave him the belts. They had such a good time with Willie Nelson, but then it came at the end of the night and they realized, ‘Oh shit, we have to get those back.’ They had to go back to the bus and get the belts back. Willie is like, ‘You gave me these.’ They’re like, ‘I know, but we have to have them tomorrow for TV.’ They gave Willie Nelson the Tag Team Titles and then took them back in the same night. That’s classic Nasty Boys,” recalled the Undertaker on his Six Feet Under podcast

The Nasty Boys held the titles for 155 days before losing them to The Legion Of Doom (Animal & Hawk) at SummerSlam 1991. 

WrestleMania VII also marked the beginning of The Undertaker’s undefeated streak at WrestleMania.
