WWE Hall of Famer “The Million Dollar Man” Ted DiBiase recently took to an episode of his “Everybody’s Got a Pod” podcast, where he talked about a number of topics including The Undertaker gimmick and how Mark Calaway is great.
DiBiase said, “Well, I mean, I thought the gimmick was great, but it’s like, my respect for Undertaker came as I continued to watch him and realized what he could do. And it’s really hard to, you know, here’s a guy that’s like he’s supposed to be a dead man, right? Come back to life or whatever. So, he doesn’t move. He doesn’t move real fast. And that’s like trying to do high spots and slow motion. Oh, yeah, he did. Huge. Huge. That’s great. He’s great, man. Love the guy. Yeah, That’s another thing about Mark. He’s a good guy.”
DiBiase also talked about what Mark Calaway would have become without The Undertaker gimmick.
“God only knows. Because. I don’t know. He just took that, and I have no idea. I mean, had he not done that, I’m just wondering what Callaway would be or what would have ever become a big wrestling star if it hadn’t been for the Undertaker gimmick?”
DiBiase then talked about how The Undertaker’s undefeated streak at WrestleMania shouldn’t have ended.
“Personally, just because I know Mark and just how long and how much has been put into that. All the blood, sweat, and tears he put into it. You know, I didn’t think the streak would stop. I thought it should have kept going. My own personal opinion.”
