The Undertaker recently made some significant comments about the 2024 US Presidential Election, specifically regarding his fellow wrestlers Dave Batista and Mick Foley. As a member of the WWE Hall of Fame, The Undertaker is accustomed to being associated with big names, including two US Presidents. The election saw Trump gain the support of several high-profile figures in professional wrestling, including Hulk Hogan and the Brothers of Destruction.
On the other hand, Batista and Mick Foley were vocal supporters of Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee. Batista, known for his outspoken anti-Trump views, has been critical of the President and his supporters for years. He even appeared in a campaign ad for Harris and delivered a strongly worded anti-Trump promo on Jimmy Kimmel Live. The Undertaker, meanwhile, hosted Trump on his podcast, Six Feet Under, and appeared in an endorsement video with the President.
Speaking with Fox News’ Gutfeld! this week, The Undertaker discussed the aftermath of the election and the controversy surrounding the endorsement video. He recalled that the video sparked a firestorm of feedback, including some contentious remarks from Batista. The Undertaker’s co-host, Tyrus (formerly Brodus Clay), joked about Batista’s fashion choices, saying he wore “skinny jeans” and lost out on job opportunities and movie deals due to his conservative beliefs.
The Undertaker weighed in on the situation, saying that he has no “angst” towards Batista and considers him a friend. He also expressed admiration for Mick Foley, with whom he claims to maintain good relations despite their differing political views. The Deadman believes that people should adopt a more cordial approach to political disagreements, rather than engaging in vitriolic and hateful rhetoric.
In other news, The Undertaker recently praised the on-air talent of WWE Raw, specifically mentioning new commentator Joe Tessitore, whom he thinks would make a great fit as the voice of the flagship show. The Undertaker even joined Tessitore and Joe Palmer in the ABC booth for a college football game.
