But he could find himself in BIG trouble with the Dead Man after using the icon’s Old School manoeuvre on this week’s Monday Night Raw.

At least that’s what another future Hall of Famer Bubba Ray Dudley thinks.

The Dudley Boyz member, who held the WWE tag titles ten times with brother D-Von, has previous experience of feeling the Phenom’s wrath for imitating his antics.

And he shared that on Twitter after watching Elias pull off the stunt live on WWE’s flagship show.

Bubba wrote: “I ‘rolled my eyes once and got a call from the Deadman the next day.

“Elias is in BIG trouble.”

Samson went on to claim the victory over O’Neil after hitting his own trademark finisher, Drift Away.

However, there has been no word whether Taker or the WWE are upset with the 29-year-old using the ex-world champion’s move.

But issues could arise if he continues to use it over the next couple of weeks.

Samson is not the only man to pay homage to legends of yesteryear by mimicking their finishers.
