Old School WWF/E Legend The Undertaker went live on Instagram for the first time ever yesterday to talk about WrestleMania 36, AJ Styles, return of his American Badass gimmick & more.
Below are the highlights (credit: awrestlinghistorian):
– He is a big supporter of the Second Amendment and showed off his gun collection.
– Said it was bizarre having an empty WrestleMania.
– He wanted to have the match with AJ Styles in front of a crowd, but going off site made him proud given the circumstances. Said it’s a Buried Alive match as far as he was concerned.
– He sees more movie matches happening, but needs the right people in it.
– Said AJ Styles can get a 4 star match with a broom.
– Going back to American Badass was his idea, especially since Styles made the feud personal. It wouldn’t have worked if he was The Phenom.
