Since then, the mutual fans of both sports are reacting to the announcement on social media. Under the tweet by reporter Alan Cavanna, many hilarious remarks are popping up. One fan wrote, “Do you the think @TonyStewart will let him use the hearse?”, as Tony Stewart is a former professional stock car racer and current co-owner of Stewart-Hass racing.

Many of the comments are based on the Undertaker’s physique and how at least a hearse or truck will be needed for him to drive. Some of the sarcastic comments said, “Y’all gonna need a bigger pace car” and “Someone buy some crisco and a shoe horn…you might need it.”

Moreover, fans joked about how it would be the slowest pace lap of all time, as the Undertaker is famous for the slowest entrance to the ring.
