WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker is deep in the weeds when it comes to his backstage involvement with AAA.
The Undertaker was the latest guest on What Do You Wanna Talk About? with Cody Rhodes. While discussing his backstage role with AAA, Taker spoke in-depth about how he wants to help that product.
“Helping out with creative and doing some stuff with AAA, my vision is to almost take a step back to step forward,” The Undertaker said. “I’m really high on the physicality and the actual in-ring stuff and things making sense, which is kind of difficult from where I’ve come from and then working with AAA. The Lucha Libre legacy is incredible with the masks and then there’s so many… there’s this guy who then has a son who has a son.
“So all these legacies and all this culture is in there. What we’re trying to do is honor that, but give more production value to the product and help story tell a little better. I think that’s the biggest thing. The things that they can do, it’s amazing. And the following they have is amazing. So if I can take the best of Lucha Libre and the best of what I know and I can mold them together, I think we’re going to have something that’s really, really special down there.
“But that’s the key. I’m not trying to make AAA, Lucha Libre, I’m not trying to make it RAW or SmackDown WWE. I’m taking some elements of that, adding it to what they already do, and try and make a product that everyone will want to see. And it’s an alternative. It’s just like the other company, RAW, SmackDown, TNA, just to give people a variety and different things to enjoy about wrestling.” [H/T: WrestlePurists]
