The Undertaker has been close friends with Vince McMahon for the last three decades. In an exclusive interview, the Hall of Famer made a surprising remark about the WWE Executive Chairman's approach to money.
In 1982, McMahon bought WWE from his father and turned the family promotion into a global entertainment giant. The 78-year-old recently sold the company to Endeavor for $9.3 billion. WWE has since merged with the Endeavor-owned UFC, forming TKO Group Holdings.
Speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling Senior Editor Bill Apter, The Undertaker claimed his long-time friend is not as money-driven as some might think:
"Not motivated by money. He's motivated by making the product better. Not in the same sense that most people are motivated by money. I mean, he wants to obviously make money, he wants to draw money, he wants to increase the value of the company and all of that, but personal wealth is not on his radar, I don't think, but definitely making the product better is always first and foremost on his mind."

Although he no longer has control of WWE, The Undertaker said McMahon is still determined to help the company progress:
"Like I said, we just spent time together in Saudi Arabia. [Vince is] still driven, even at this point, even after the merger and everything, he's just driven on expanding the product, making the product better, and you have to admire somebody like that. He is absolutely a leader." [4:06 – 4:31]
