In his podcast Six Feet Under, the Undertaker revealed which wrestler he would recruit first if he launched his own wrestling federation. Above all other names, the Undertaker opted for… Kane!
The Undertaker explains the reasons for his choice:
“Sometimes people look at me strangely when I talk about this, but if I had to start my own wrestling company and choose my first wrestler, I would choose Kane. Firstly for his talent. He can wrestle anyone. Secondly, he knows his character inside out, what he stands for and what he doesn’t stand for Thirdly, he will do whatever it takes for the business Fourthly, he is a human being that people would love as theirs. children become. You have all these qualities with him. He’s almost the complete package. Someone who worked injured and did everything the company asked of him.
He was a leader. He was the type to take you aside and say, ‘Maybe you should try doing it like that.’ He wasn’t loud, he always acted with class. He was pretty quiet, but he could destroy you if he wanted to. He was physically strong. Before choosing Stone Cold or The Rock, I would choose Kane as a base. He knew how to use his character and make it evolve in different directions. He went so far as to become Corporate Kane, completely stepping out of his Big Red Machine costume and into a suit. He understands the product and what it takes to succeed when the opportunity presents itself.”
