WWE legend reveals unbelievable story about The Undertaker in Iraq (Exclusive)

The Undertaker dominated the WWE for 30 years. His feuds against the likes of Kane, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, and more placed him in the upper echelons of this industry. There's no denying that the tales involving 'Taker are the stuff of legend.

Speaking during a recent episode of What Were They Thinking? on Backstage Pass, JBL recalled an unbelievable story about The Undertaker in Iraq. The Hall of Famer said they had their pictures taken inside Saddam Hussain's palace during their tour of Baghdad, Iraq:

"I mean, we, we stayed in Saddam Hussein's palace. There's a famous picture of me and Undertaker on Saddam Hussein's throne. There it is, Palace." [09:33 onwards]

Elsewhere on the podcast, JBL revealed he and The Undertaker were asked to play golf by US soldiers on Saddam Hussein's porch during WWE's visit to Iraq in the 2000s:

"We're in Saddam Hussein's palace and Iraq. We rarely, we rarely ever stayed in the Green Zone. We always stayed in the forward operating bases. And so I got Undertaker and I say, you want to be part of this? I think, and I don't know what's going on, but something's happening. And the soldier had gotten a bunch of golf balls from the USO and got us out on Hussein's porch and said, would you guys hit some golf balls with us? And I say, you Dang right, I will. As one of the best days of my life, we sat out there and hit golf balls on Saddam Hussein's porch into his lake." [From 25:45 onwards]

While JBL didn't reveal who won the game of golf, the former WWE Champion seemingly had a great time.
