The Undertaker Proud Of WWE’s Triple H Surprise

Triple H is heading to the WWE Hall of Fame and now The Undertaker has explained exactly how he and Shawn Michaels were able to surprise the boss.

During a WWE town hall meeting for employees, Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker told Triple H he was being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.

This was the second year that Triple H had full control of who goes into the Hall of Fame so eyebrows were raised over whether or not he was putting himself in. But it seems it was really a surprise to The Game.

Nick Khan Reached Out To The Undertaker & Shawn Michaels

Speaking on Busted Open Radio, The Undertaker explained how the surprise came together and that he and Shawn Michaels even caught Stephanie McMahon off guard:

It was such an inside job. It just reaffirms that if you want to, you can still kayfabe. You can still keep things on the low-key and surprise people.

To be able to pull the wool over Triple H—who has his hands in everything—on so many levels, I was proud and honoured because it was him. I have so much history with him. But to be able to pull that off… You have Shawn coming from Atlanta, I’m coming from Austin.

To get from those places without people knowing anything, to get to the office while they’re on stage doing whatever town hall there was, and to get all the way into Gorilla position and look at Stephanie, who was there to have lunch afterwards.

She was looking at me like, ‘Why are y’all here?’ She’s thinking in her head that I’m there to promote LFG, so it was such a great hit. He’s the decision-maker. He can’t put himself in there—people are gonna sh*t all over that. So it had to be done. It was so stealthy, it was so well done. Nick Khan called me and Shawn and said, ‘What do we think?’. We put a plan together, it was implemented to perfection, and we caught him off guard.

The Undertaker then noted that he believes it should be Shawn Michaels who inducts Triple H into the WWE Hall of Fame, calling the decision a “no-brainer.”
