The Undertaker made quite the impact at WrestleMania 40, but only after surviving the itchy trigger finger of a seven-year-old wrestling fan.
At the April 2024 pay-per-view event, The Undertaker chokeslammed The Rock during Night Two’s main event as the Final Boss had appeared to aid Roman Reigns.
On a recent edition of his “Six Feet Under” podcast, The Undertaker recalled the threat that came after he was speaking on the phone with the boy’s father. He said,
“He gets his son on the phone. ‘Bjorn, this is The Undertaker.’ ‘Hey Undertaker, how are you?’ ‘I’m really good.’ I’m making small talk with this kid. I start messing with him like I do everybody. ‘Bjorn, sounds like to me that you’re getting in some kind of trouble at home, aren’t you?’ ‘No, I’m not getting into any trouble.’ ‘Nooo, sounds like you’re up to something. I don’t know what it is, but I can tell you’re doing something you shouldn’t be doing.’ ‘I’m not doing anything I’m not supposed to be doing. You’re doing something you’re not supposed to be doing.’ ‘Nooooo.’ This seven-year-old kid goes, ‘Hey, I’ll shoot you right in the face.’ I about lost it.
“Now his dad is mortified. ‘I put him on the phone, he’s threatening the Undertaker.’ ‘You’re not going to shoot me in the face, I’m going to shoot you in the face.’ Now, I’m having an argument with a seven-year-old about shooting him in the face. I probably shouldn’t be talking about this. It’s all in good fun. You had to be there.”
Thankfully, The Undertaker’s face remained intact for WrestleMania 40. The Rock recently teased payback for the Phenom for what transpired between them in Philadelphia, PA.
