#2 When Vince McMahon cried: Vince fails to describe what The Undertaker means to him

Undertaker: The Last Ride is an in-depth look at the legendary career of the WWE veteran. The documentary features a long string of backstage clips that we hadn't seen before, plus a bunch of interviews with WWE Superstars as well as Vince McMahon.

In one of the clips, Vince McMahon is asked what The Undertaker means to WWE and him. The boss, who's already an emotional mess, makes the "cut the tape" gesture and says that he "can't do that" while shedding tears.

Vince McMahon later did provide a comment, and had nothing but praise for The Undertaker:

Undertaker, Mark Calaway, is the most loyal performer I’ve ever dealt with, and he is the kind of man that you would want literally and figuratively in the foxhole with you.

The Undertaker has been a part of WWE for three decades. He made his way to WWE in late 1990 and spooked the fans with his sinister persona and presence. It's baffling how The Deadman managed to stay relevant for three decades in a business where most wrestlers get burned out in a matter of years.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
