The Wrestling Legend Who Claims The Undertaker Doesn’t Like Them
Wrestling legend Bill Dundee has opened up about a long-standing feud with WWE icon The Undertaker, suggesting that this tension may have played a key role in his never securing a spot with WWE.
During an interview on “The Hannibal TV,” Dundee, an Australian wrestling star known for his work in various promotions during the 1970s and 80s, spoke about the mystery behind his absence from WWE. Dundee pointed to The Undertaker as the reason he never made it into the company.
I don’t know why he didn’t like me. I think he’s the reason I never got past the front desk of Vince.
Dundee admitted, expressing confusion and frustration over the issue. He speculated that Undertaker’s personal life, particularly his marriage, might have fuelled the tension. Dundee explained:
He married a girl that I knew, and there’s no telling what she said to him about me because the heat’s all on his end.
This suggests that rumours or personal issues stemming from that relationship may have influenced The Undertaker’s view of him.
‘Mean’ Mark Callous doesn’t like me. I have never done anything to him that I know of.
Though Dundee didn’t specify who the woman was, Undertaker’s first wife was Jodi Lynn, whom he married in 1989 and divorced in 1999. Dundee’s comments shine a light on a potential personal conflict that may have affected his professional career, but the full details of the tension between these two wrestling figures remain unclear.
Which Former WWE Superstar Said They Had Heat With The Undertaker?
Former WWE Superstar Duke “The Dumpster” Droese said that he had heat with The Undertaker due to his in-ring style. Droese recalled how the heat stemmed from when he and Quebecer Pierre would wrestle in the house show loop for WWE and would often put on exciting performances before the main event, which meant that when Undertaker had to perform in the main event he would have to follow their performances which, according to Droese, he didn’t take kindly to.
