WWE legend The Undertaker was recently asked to hit his famous finisher on a popular RAW name. However, The Phenom refused to hit the move on the red brand personality. This was none other than WWE RAW's newest commentator, Joe Tessitore.

Although The Undertaker has retired from in-ring competition, he still shows up on WWE television from time to time. His most recent appearance came at WrestleMania XL, where he chokeslammed The Rock and helped Cody Rhodes win the Undisputed WWE Championship against Roman Reigns.

The Phenom was recently enjoying his time at the Texas Longhorn football game, where RAW personality Joe Tessitore was serving as a commentator for the ABC broadcast.

During the broadcast, a reporter asked The Undertaker to hit Joe Tessitore with a tombstone. However, the 59-year-old refused to hit his finisher, saying that Joe had to be on the red brand's show on Monday and he might get backstage heat if something happened to the RAW commentator.

"Well, hey, you know I would but he's gotta be somewhere on Monday night and I might get a little heat from people higher up on my pay grade. So, I gotta take it easy on [Joe Tessitore]," he said.

The Undertaker believes a current WWE champion is "special"

During an edition of his Six Feet Under podcast, The Undertaker praised current Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker. The Deadman noted that Bron was already better than his father, Rick Steiner, and uncle, Scott Steiner, themselves being legendary WWE Hall of Famers.

The Phenom also mentioned that Breakker had a special talent and he had only scratched the surface of what he was capable of in the wrestling business.

"He [Bron Breakker] is a young man. He ain't even scratched the surface of what he's going to do. He is athletic. He cuts better promos than his uncle and his dad already. He's going to be special. He is special. Like I said, he's only scratched the surface of what he's going to do. He's going to be a player for a long time," 'Taker said.

Many fans want The Undertaker to make more frequent appearances on WWE television. It will be interesting to see if the 59-year-old will show up in the Stamford-based promotion anytime soon.
