Below are a couple of top news stories of the day, featuring The Undertaker, Bad Bunny & more.
• On his Six Feet Under podcast, WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker talked about working with Kane and what he told Glenn Jacobs before he started as the Kane character.
Here’s what The Deadman said:
“Vince (McMahon) ended up having to talk with him, kind of before the Kane thing started. He (Kane) was such a nice guy. He didn’t want to ruffle feathers. He wanted to do his job and do everything. Sometimes when you’re like that, people take advantage.
I told him, ‘You got to have some a**hole in you’. Not an a**hole to be just an a**hole or a d*ck to somebody, but you have to have a**hole for the sake of the business. You have to understand what gifts you’ve been giving, what attributes you have, and you need to be able to stand up for yourself.
If something doesn’t feel right, you need to voice your opinions on it and not just go with the flow. I said, ‘This is your last shot, man’, and it was. It was going to be his last shot at it.
I believe Vince had a conversation with him that paralleled that, too, and he listened and, man, he showed up ready to go.”

• At WWE Backlash 2023, Bad Bunny defeated Damian Priest in a San Juan Street Fight. This was the longest match of the night, lasting 25 minutes.
During an interview with Chris Van Vliet, Priest revealed Bunny’s physical condition after the match:
“He was in a lot of pain. When we were training, and it was one of those things, I was like, we got to train a little harder than we did the last time. I explained to him, ‘I’m gonna hit you really hard, I have to. This is one-on-one, it’s a street fight. I need you to not hold back. (Fight) like you’re in a street fight for real, give me all you got. I’m not gonna give you all I got because you’ll die, but I’ll give you a lot.’ And I did, I gave it to him.
The one thing you have to respect, the guy is not from this business. His body is not used to taking that much physical impact and he kept on getting up. Granted he told me that it took him a few weeks to recover, and he messaged me three days after and he was like, ‘I finally feel good enough to walk around’.
He was like, I barely come out of my bedroom, I’ve been in so much pain I feel like I’ve been in a train wreck. I think the worst thing for him was one of the Kendo stick shots, and I only got one. He gave me like 20 of them. I gave him one shot, but I did tell him.
I was like, ‘I’m only gonna hit you once, don’t worry.’ And he goes, ‘Oh, okay. You sure?’ I was like, ‘Yeah, I’m sure.’ And it was one I swung like a baseball bat.”
