The Undertaker is setting the record straight regarding a WWE backstage rumor surrounding The Deadman.
On the latest episode of Six Feet Under, the WWE Hall of Famer took a few minutes to bury a longstanding rumor that he used his backstage political power to get his wife, Michelle McCool, a push in the company.
“I think as equally as proud of my wrestling accolades is the way that I’ve been perceived and the way that my peers respect me, and at the end of the day, that’s really all that matters to me,” The Undertaker said. “I have a very, very small inner circle of people that I actually care what they think of me.
“The people that are in the locker room, the guys that I shared the dressing room with, I care about what they think. I’m pretty sure if you ask 99.5% of the guys that I’ve ever been in a dressing room with or worked in a territory with, they’re going to tell you that, as much clout as I supposedly have, or even if I do, I never, ever would have used it for that kind of crap.
The Undertaker believes this rumor about him and his wife is absurd
“It’s absurd that people get on the internet and can use words like ‘reliable sources’ and this and that, and everybody believes it. I’m not going to give anybody that kind of satisfaction of me having to explain myself. Anybody that doesn’t believe any of that. They can all line up single file, I’ll bend over, and then line up and kiss my ass. That’s just the way it is.” [H/T: WrestlingNews.co]
