The Undertaker Tombstoned a turkey on The Tonight Show for no reason

Yes, this is a thing that actually happened.

Theer's a palpable thirst for viral moments on the US chat shows lately, and in order to meet his quota, Jimmy Fallon has started just taking suggestions from viewers on The Tonight Show.

"You should have The Undertaker from WWE come out and Tombstone a guy in a turkey outfit on your show," one, which the host pulled from a box, read.

He immediately dismissed it, questioning how the hell he'd even get hold of the wrestler, only for the Deadman's infamous bell to toll.

Wonderfully surreal though The Undertaker Tombstoning an actual turkey would have been, he instead performed his finishing move on a man in a turkey suit (believed to be former WWE Monday Night RAW General Manager Brad Maddox).

Fallon extended a hand to Taker, who looked on fine form, but he merely did that stern face he does and exited to lightning bolts and funeral march music.

Next week, The Rock Rock Bottom's a ham on Kimmel (I hope)!
