There is no doubt that The Undertaker had some of the best moments in wrestling history. But it wasn’t all because of his own wrestling excellence. Like any other combat sport, wrestling is great because of two people. One person alone can’t put on a show-stopping classic moment. But to his credit, Taker has time and again mentioned the amazing wrestlers who worked with him in the past.

But the truth is, like I said, without The Undertaker coming out of the gate, my story kind of ends unceremoniously as a guy that goes in and gets pushed down the card and is largely forgotten. The Undertaker, by virtue of that, meant so much to my career, and also, by virtue of the fact that the matches were really enjoyable is probably my all-time favorite opponent.
