There have been rumors online for years now about The Undertaker’s so-called “Bone Street Krew”, which was a backstage group comprised of him and other WWE talents to combat Shawn Michaels and “The Kliq” many years ago in WWE.
The group consisted of ‘Taker, Savio Vega, Henry Godwinn, The Godfather, Mideon (Phineas Godwinn), Yokozuna (the founder of the group), Brian Adams, Rikishi, Paul Bearer and Mr. Fuji.
Many of the group’s members, including the Undertaker, have a “BSK Pride” tattoo on their abdomens which represent the group.
WWE.com recently spoke with JBL, Shawn Michaels and former members of the group and below are some highlights:
The Godfather on the BSK:
We were a bunch of guys that hung out together, rode together, listened to the same type of music, did the same things at night … and we played dominoes. The Godwinns didn’t play dominoes. Savio played. But the ones that definitely played were me, Rikishi, Yoko and Undertaker.
JBL and HBK on rumors of a war between BSK and The Kliq:
JBL: I hate to dispel the myths about all these groups that were warring back in the day, but they weren’t warring back in the day. I was in the locker room with all these guys. The BSK, to my knowledge, never had a problem with The Kliq. Really, nobody did.
HBK: We all hung out at the same places, anyway. We were friendly. At some point, the rumor started that The BSK started because of The Kliq, but I don’t know who started the stirring of the pot that we didn’t get along.
Vega on The Undertaker offering to get him a contract extension:
When my contract ended, I went to Taker and said, “Bro, I’m finished.” He said, “What do you mean finished? Let me talk to them and get you two more years.” I said, “No, we’ve got something we’re going to do in Puerto Rico.” So he asked, “You sure? Come on, two more years.” But that was it for me. I appreciate him trying to help me.
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
