Triple H calls Undertaker ‘one of the big driving forces’ behind AAA Lucha Libre
Triple H has commented on The Undertaker’s role with AAA.
On Sunday, one day after AAA Triplemania, Triple H posted a video to social media commenting on the event. In it, he says he never imagined The Undertaker would one day become an influential figure in lucha libre.
Triple H said:
“You know, if you’d have told me 20 years ago that one of the big driving forces behind AAA in Mexico would be the Undertaker, it would have been hard for me to, sort of, wrap my head around that.”
The video is available here and at the end of this article.
In June, Konnan revealed on his podcast that Taker had been backstage at AAA events, saying he believes Taker is hoping work in creative for WWE.
“I think that Undertaker wants to get into creative,” Konnan said on the show. “He was in creative at Money in the Bank, he was in the other one, and I think he’s very interested in being part of the creative team.”
Taker was also backstage at Worlds Collide in June, which may have been “the other one” Konnan referred to above.
Jelly Roll also recently commented on The Undertaker and Michelle McCool helping him prepare for his SummerSlam match with Randy Orton against Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul, saying both spent hours giving him pointers at the WWE Performance Center.
“Undertaker comes in with Michelle, his wife, and they come in and say, ‘Hey, we just want to watch for a minute, just kind of chill, is that cool?’ I was like, ‘Yeah, for sure.’ This is who he is as a human. The entire three-hour session, he and his wife stood on those ropes and just gave me pointer after pointer.”
