WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker appeared on Busted Open Radio today.
Taker has been busy with his “Six Feet Under” podcast and “1 Deadman” shows. Taker said that he was reluctant to do the podcast and still feels that way because it’s hard for him to talk about behind-the-scenes stories from his career.
Taker said, “I wasn’t sure I wanted to do it. I’m still not sure I wanna do it. I’m kind of coming late to the podcast game. When you’re doing everything in the WWE machine, everything is pretty simple. Now we’re having to do everything on our own. I’m trying to find that passion now that the wrestling part is over for me. We’ll see. I’m warming up to it a little bit.”
On why there’s hesitation on doing the podcast, Taker said, “I still have a hard time talking about the business in an open forum. That’s probably the biggest thing. I somewhat am competing with myself as far as the 1 deadMAN show. The biggest thing is probably my memory. People will ask me the most random questions about the most random matches in the word like I’m supposed to remember who I worked with in Scranton, PA in 1993. I’m like yea I got nothing for ya.”
Taker said that there’s so much coverage of the “X’s and O’s” in wrestling and he’s trying to find his niche. He said he wants to also interview people from other genres including athletes and musicians.
Taker’s YouTube channel is a massive success with over 300,000 subscribers in just a few months. Since retiring, we’ve heard more from him than ever because, during his wrestling days, he rarely broke character. His 1 deadMAN shows are also a hit with fans and regularly sell out.
