The Undertaker Would Not Want a Solo Ceremony
Additionally, Booker answered the question about whether The Undertaker needs a Hall of Fame induction ceremony completely focused on him. The question was, “I’m glad to see Vader going in the HOF, but do you feel that Taker should have had the night all to himself?”

However, Booker answered, that Undertaker would not wish to be a showman and make a long speech. After the showman performs his act, there won’t be anything left. But instead, a bunch of people talking about him would be more effective and honorable. That would make that person the “main event,” said Booker T.
Previously, in the last Hall of Fame podcast, the same topic had come up. The concern of Undertaker deserving his own induction show flamed up many discussions. Booker T had made it clear why that won’t be necessary, even though The Undertaker has a class all to himself.
