The Undertaker and Kane are two of the most celebrated and respected wrestlers in WWE history. They have faced each other at WrestleMania and have even won the World Tag Team Championships together. Both legends share deep respect for each other, and that was evident after fans heard what The Deadman had to say about his brother recently.
While speaking on the Six Feet Under podcast, the WWE Hall of Famer discussed who would be his first pick if he owned a company. The Undertaker mentioned Kane‘s name without hesitation, even before legends like The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin. He listed several reasons why his brother would be his top pick in an all-time draft.
Taker said that Kane was a versatile wrestler who could work with anyone. Another reason The Phenom gave was that The Big Red Machine was all about business. He further added that the former world champion was a total package and did everything the company asked of him. The Hall of Famer didn’t shy away from admitting that his brother had far more range than he ever did.
Before I pick a Stone Cold Steve Austin or The Rock, I want Kane as my pillar. He was the man. To be able to do with his character, and go to different places with that character. Had far more range than I ever did. He went all the way to Corporate Kane where he came completely out of the Big Red Machine suit, into a suit.The Undertaker via Six Feet Under
Kane last wrestled in the Royal Rumble match three years ago, which was won by the former WWE star Edge. However, his last non-Royal Rumble match was a tag team match with his brother against D-Generation X at Crown Jewel in 2018. The Brothers of Destruction lost that match, and the less said about it, the better. Nowadays, Mayor Glenn Jacobs often stays in the spotlight due to his political views.
Wrestling veteran thinks The Undertaker could still return to the company for one more run
WWE has never achieved the level of success they reached in 2023 and 2024. They are breaking countless records with every premium live event. As such, wrestling veteran Disco suggested that The Undertaker could step into the ring one more time, inspired by the success the Stamford-based company has achieved over the past year.
While speaking on the Keepin’ It 100 podcast, Disco expressed that the Hall of Famer might consider having one more match in front of a packed crowd. He stated that The Deadman could get back in shape and try to make a comeback to wrestling. The veteran didn’t understand why The Undertaker retired when he believed he could still wrestle.
I think The Undertaker was looking at it like these [packed] crowds, I could definitely work out two-three months in the gym and get ready and definitely do one more match and make myself a million bucks. I've always said this, why would you retire from wrestling when you could still do it?Disco on The Undertaker via the Keepin’ It 100 podcast
His last appearance in WWE was at WrestleMania XL, when he attacked The Rock and helped Cody Rhodes win against Roman Reigns. However, his last match was against AJ Styles at WrestleMania 36, where The Deadman emerged victorious in a Boneyard Match. Although fans would love to see him in the ring once again, Taker has affirmed multiple times that he is done with wrestling.
