• The Undertaker Says His Long Entrances Make Up For Sh*tty Matches
The Undertaker’s entrance is a big part of his character. He has one of the longest entrances in the pro wrestling world.
While speaking to Pardon My Take, The American Badass revealed why he takes such a long time to enter the ring:
“A lot of times that would just depend on my opponent, okay? Like, if I was working with somebody that was pretty limited or I thought I was gonna have just a real sh*tty match with, I was like, ‘Man, Imma get my money’s worth out of this entrance’.
There were times I would take a little bit of extra time, ’cause I knew the match is gonna be horrible, so I figured I might as well give it to them on the entrance, ’cause they are gonna be disappointed when the bell rings.”
