"Undertaker, of course, is going to be in the Hall of Fame. I'm going to have the distinction of inducting him into the Hall of Fame. It will be one of the most difficult things I've ever done in my life. I like the guy. I love the guy. We've known each other for so many years and have been through all kinds of situations. When you live on the road like that, you have your family at home, but when you live on the road, you have to have a family on the road and people you can count on, rely on, that are loyal and trustworthy and not have to look over your shoulder. He's that kind of guy. He's an extraordinary human being and one of the all-time greats in the ring. As a human being, I could talk about the character and it won't bug me at all, in my mind I'm thinking, when I'm inducting him, 'I know who he is.' That's tough when you know someone that close and you care about them so much, it's going to be one of the most difficult things I've ever done," said Undertaker.
This will only be the third time Vince McMahon appears at the WWE Hall of Fame in this capacity. He last inducted a wrestler in 2009 when he inducted Stone Cold Steve Austin.
In the past, Vince McMahon has stated that the Undertaker is his favorite wrestler of all time due to the loyalty that he showed WWE. During his appearance on the Pat McAfee Show, Vince McMahon revealed that he never even had to have a single conversation with the Undertaker regarding him possibly jumping ship to WCW.
