Undertaker Revealed His Reaction After Vince McMahon Proposing The Idea Of The Undertaker Character
“Almost immediately, yeah. When Vince presented that to me, he basically showed me The Undertaker. He gave me the name and he showed me the storyboard and the drawings of the character. Immediately, I was mesmerized. I was like, this is so different from what anyone else has done, just visually. Not even getting into the character aspects of it. Then when he kind of gave me what he thought The Undertaker was, I was like, yeah, I like it. I like it a lot.”
“The more I started to develop the character, the more and more I became that guy. And you can attest to this, the more you take on a role, you become that. And I think it’s why it comes off so genuine to people. I think it’s why people were so shocked when I did The Last Ride documentary, as they got to see a whole another person that they didn’t even really know existed. Yeah, they thought it, but most people were like, ‘Hmmm no, that’s The Undertaker. I’m not going to look him in the eye, because he may not like it.'” (H/T: Sportskeeda)
