During a recent appearance on “The Roommates Show,” Triple H commented on how much convincing it took to get The Undertaker to agree to a spot at WrestleMania 40.
At WrestleMania 40, The Undertaker chokeslammed The Rock during the second night’s main event that featured Cody Rhodes defeating Roman Reigns to capture the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.
Triple H said, “It took us forever to get him to do that thing. A lot of that stuff comes together in the tail end. When I first called him for it, he’s like, ‘I don’t know. I don’t think I want to do it.’ I’m like, ‘80,000 people are going to go absolutely insane.’ It took us a little bit. Rock had to call him. Everybody had to call him to get him to finally acquiesce to do it. When he retired, he sort of wanted, ‘I’m just done.’ He didn’t come out with the hat and jacket. The hat and jacket are retired. ‘I’ll come out as me, but I’m not coming out as Undertaker.’ He just wanted it to be over.”
