WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker opened up about pitching a switch from the “Deadman” character to the “American Badass” persona to Vince McMahon on his latest Six Feet Under podcast.

โ€œThat was probably what I was most nervous about. Not the night that Iโ€™d debut it but actually telling Vince, โ€˜What do you think about this?โ€™ I was totally expecting him to go, โ€˜Thereโ€™s no damn way, youโ€™ll be fine, screw all those guys talking and cutting those great promos.โ€™

I have a meeting with him, and itโ€™s like, โ€˜Boss, this is what Iโ€™m thinking.โ€™ And I explained my reasoning for it, and it was like, โ€˜God damn thatโ€™s good, thatโ€™s great.โ€™ Iโ€™m thinking itโ€™s a rib, like here comes the punchline, heโ€™s about to pull the rug right out from underneath me.โ€
