The Undertaker was recently a guest on the After the Bell podcast. During this, he spoke about his relationship with Vince McMahon.
The Undertaker told a story about when Vince pulled him into his office and told him that he needs to stop feeling sorry for himself. Here is what he said (h/t to Ringside News for the quotes below):
“[Vince McMahon] is one of the few people that can say things to me where I sit down and say: ‘Okay.’ I mean he flat out told me I had a whole mess of personal problems going on in my life. It was really affecting me and my ability to perform and my ability to want to go and perform. I mean I was consumed with, and rightfully so, but not to the point where it had taken me. Vince straight up pulled me into his office one day we started talking about it and he looked me straight in the eyes and said: ‘Mark you need to stop feeling sorry for yourself.’ I’m like ‘what?’”
“He said ‘you need to quit feeling sorry for yourself and get your ass out there and do what you’re supposed to do.’ Even then I was like I had the urge inside of me like to get up and knock him on his ass, but then as I was processing all of that I knew he was right.”
“There aren’t a whole lot of people who could say that to me that it would get to where I would want to get up and punch him in the face. It was Vince and I knew where it was coming from I knew it was coming from the heart. I knew that he cares and he loves me. I knew it was his way of saying get it together and be you and be who you are.”
