The Undertaker: This Era’s Talent Is Incredible, I Love Them Developing Psychology And Personas
The Undertaker is looking forward to WrestleMania 38.
Undertaker will be a big part of WrestleMania weekend as he is set to headline the Hall of Fame class on Friday following SmackDown. One day later, WrestleMania kicks off with night one, an event that will feature Becky Lynch defending the Raw Women’s Championship against Bianca Belair.
Speaking to Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated, Undertaker previewed the bout.
“As great as she is right now, Bianca is still light years away from where she’s going to be,” Undertaker said. “Bianca is a real phenomenal talent. And Becky is in such command of her gimmick. She’s at the top of her game. I thought they threw even more gasoline on the fire this week with Becky getting her hair cut. There is so much emotion surrounding that match. I’ll try to sit down in my seat, have a beer and enjoy it.”
Speaking about other matches at WrestleMania 38, Undertaker commented on AJ Styles vs. Edge and Steve Austin’s return to the KO Show.
“I’m so excited for Edge and AJ Styles,” he said. “Those guys are so in tune with what they do. They know their characters, they know how to have great matches, and this is something new for WrestleMania. It’s really going to be a fun match to watch. That match, with those peaks and valleys, it’s going to be a roller coaster. As a fan, I’m excited to see Austin. When Steve was in his prime and on top, he was really intense. He took all of this very, very seriously, as he should have, and he was kind of a lone wolf. After our careers, we’ve really grown closer. We’re two Texas boys, and we like to talk about hunting and fishing and all that good stuff. After 19 years since his last match, and with WrestleMania in Texas at AT&T Stadium, I’m just like everyone else—I can’t wait to hear and see the reaction when that glass breaks.”
Undertaker closed by saying the focus of the weekend should be on the stars in the ring, “That’s the way it should be. This era’s talent is incredible. I love the way they’re developing psychology and in-ring personas. WrestleMania is going to be special.”
