The Undertaker On His Characters Uniqueness, How Paul Bearer Helped, More

The Undertaker will be inducted into the 2022 WWE Hall of Fame tonight, and in an interview with TODAY, he discussed what made his character unique and how Paul Bearer helped the presentation.

On different voices for his character in promos:

“My reasoning behind all that was, is normally if somebody is loud, you know, you kind of give them a look and you’re kind of annoyed and you just turn back around and you mind your own business. But when somebody talks low, you’re a little bit more intrigued, like, what are they saying? So you lean in a little closer, and they grab your attention in a much different way.”

On what made his character so different:
 
“I’m talking about taking your soul, throwing you in a casket, letting the worms eat your rotting flesh as I take your soul to hell. I mean, at this time period, nobody’s doing that. Nobody’s talking about things that dark and that heavy. And, you know, no one’s digging graves and throwing dirt. So, you know, it was all of those things that I was concentrating on to make myself different and make myself relevant in a world of superheroes that were really over the top.”

On how Paul Bearer helped the presentation of his character:

“He’s got the loud, squealy, creepy voice and the high-pitched (delivery), you know, and the ghoulish look. So he was a complete contrast to what I was bringing in. But it was the same message that we just had different ways of approach. It was so good. It was perfect.”
