#4. The Big Show and The Undertaker had real-life heat with each other

The Undertaker considers The Big Show one of his close friends now. However, reports suggested that he and Undertaker initially didn't get along when Big Show first joined the WWE in 1999.

The Undertaker appeared on Corey Graves' After The Bell podcast earlier this year. In the episode, he acknowledged that there was backstage heat on The Big Show because of his attitude when he first joined WWE.

"He [Big Show] came in running off that big WCW hype train. When he first came in, he thought he was the sh*ts and treated people like they were less than him, and I don’t tolerate that."

The Undertaker also said that he wanted Big Show to reach his full potential as a human being both in and outside of the ring.

"There were a few incidents where he treated some people pretty bad and he got the crooked finger pointed to him quite a bit. I was trying to help him reach his full potential, not only as a performer, but as a human being. Not that it was my role to do that, but I knew there was a lot there. I wanted him to excel on all levels.”

Things worked out for the best in the long run. Big Show was also one of the legends who appeared during The Undertaker's final farewell at Survivor Series 2020.
