“Blood Equity”: The Undertaker Once Made a Startling Confession in Rare Out of Character Interview

Even though there have been many notable personalities that have come and gone in the history of WWE, The Undertaker holds a really special place in the company’s history. Having worked for the WWE for more than 30 years, The Deadman was one of its most loyal employees. Thus, Taker, back in 2019, spoke about the unique privilege he possessed that was quite rare during other wrestlers’ tenures.

Taker had some extraordinary benefits owing to his loyalty and legendary reputation in the company. Taker revealed some details about the special privilege he had acquired in the WWE.

It is common knowledge that professional wrestlers must travel often and spend most of their time traveling from one place to another, with the same hectic schedule.

Likewise, The Phenom had to travel for most of his career, just like everyone else. He does, however, have the choice of choosing where to go and where not to go in the later stages of his career.

The Undertaker had the rare privilege

Back in 2019, while talking to Ed Young, he stated, “There was about an eight-nine-year stretch where I averaged, conservatively, 250 days a year out on the road. That’s basically you fly into a town, you get a Rent-A-Car,  you go find a hotel, you go to the gym, you eat, you go to the arena, go back to the hotel, you wake up, go to the airport and go somewhere else.”

 “For 8 years, it was pretty much like that. So know my schedule, you know, obviously, I’ve been around for a while, so I’ve got a little sweat and blood equity built up. So I get to pick and choose when I wanna go and where I wanna go.”

In addition, Taker had built up a relationship with Vince McMahon after working for the WWE for 30 years. McMahon, therefore, had complete faith in Taker and his decision.

Also, he was unable to compete in every event in the latter parts of his career due to the numerous injuries he sustained. However, given that Taker was the main star, McMahon may have granted him a special privilege.
