Even though ‘The Phenom’ acknowledged that it could be evolution, it still doesn’t suit him. To him, a locker room should be a place where everyone was ready to handle anything thrown their way and not be concerned with elements such as looks.
In the same interview, The Undertaker revealed he finds it difficult to watch WWE because the product and Superstars have become soft. He doesn’t specifically mention anybody by name.

Xavier Woods did not sit back. He responded to Taker by providing an insight into his journey throughout the years where Superstars from other generations have helped him grow.
I wouldn’t be the person that I am without the guidance and lessons of a few key people from the previous generation of wrestling. They taught me about the business, to save my money, & that having video games in the locker room is healthier than having [redacted]. Thank you guys

I thought at first it was a shoot at the writers, which…fair. But then it became a cringe fest. I'm so glad things are the way they are now. ❤️

It takes a lot of courage to respond to the words of someone as legendary as The Undertaker.
The Undertaker could have made a better judgement
The Undertaker may have been a tad bit hard in judging the current generation. However, he’s got his own reasons.
Taker did not have a simple journey when he pursued wrestling as a career during his college days. He trained on front yards, waited at lobbies for bookings, and sold off almost everything he owned to achieve his goal.
