"The Best in the World", Shane McMahon recently sat down with Greg Wyshynski of ESPN and opened up on his relationship with WWE veteran The Undertaker. Shane recalled The Undertaker's first WWE title victory at Survivor Series 1991, exactly a year after he made his WWE debut.

Shane stated that The Undertaker cares a lot about his performance in the ring. He added that when The Undertaker picked Hulk Hogan up during their WWE title match and delivered a Tombstone Piledriver, it was clear that The Phenom had protected Hulk's neck during the move. The Immortal One didn't think so, and claimed that his neck was hurting following the Tombstone and the move left him stunned for a second.

When The Undertaker walked through the curtain, he was incredibly upset and distraught and was thinking that he had let WWE down.
