“It’s a Tough One”: The Undertaker Isn’t the GOAT of WWE as Per Highly Decorated Hall of Famer

The Undertaker, on the 1st of April 2022, got inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. The Undertaker has spent his 30-year-long career with the WWE and finally, the company honored his legacy in his hometown, Texas. During the Most Stupendous WrestleMania 38 weekend, The Undertaker walked down the aisle for the moment that the WWE Universe waited for. 

WWE Chairperson Vince McMahon was the man who inducted The Phenom into the Hall of Fame. However, the wrestling fans got emotional when Vince McMahon hugged his all-time favorite, Mark Calaway, during the ceremony.

Along with the WWE Universe, a WWE Hall of Famer was also excited about The Deadman’s massive achievement. WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff explained if The Undertaker can be manifested as the greatest of all time.

Is The Undertaker the greatest of all time according to WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff?

Eric Bischoff sat down with WWE Raw brand commentator Corey Graves on the latest episode of After The Bell. WWE Hall of Famer agreed with Corey Graves that The Undertaker is a living legend. However, there can never be a correct answer to choosing someone as the most outstanding professional wrestler.

Bischoff said, “I was asked that same question earlier in a radio interview, you know, of the three, I think they said Undertaker, Hulk Hogan, and Steve Austin, which is the biggest star? Well, you got to qualify that stuff.”

“I think if you look at The Undertaker, his impact on this industry, the longevity that he has. At the level that he played and the impact that he had, how do you not give him the nod for that role?” Eric Bischoff mentioned.

Who does Eric Bischoff think is the GOAT of WWE?

Notably, Eric Bischoff has been a wrestling promoter in the past. So, Bischoff also understands the power of money contributing to any wrestling company. WWE Hall of Famer mentioned Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as the provider of big fat cheques to the WWE.

Bischoff stated, “Well, if you’re just counting dollars, you’re going to The Rock because who’s made more money in this industry than The Rock.”

“But if you’re going to talk about who had the most significant impact on the industry in the early stages of its amazing growth, how do you not pick up Hulk Hogan? So it’s a tough one. It all comes down to personal preference,” Eric Bischoff added.

The former wrestling promoter also had his words of appreciation for six-time World Champion Hulk Hogan. Bischoff believes if it was about the wrestling industry making pivotal development in the early 80s and 90s, then the greatest of all-time awards should go to Hulk Hogan. But, for Bischoff to pick someone as the best among many is hard.
