There is no doubt that The Undertaker had some of the best moments in wrestling history. But it wasn’t all because of his own wrestling excellence. Like any other combat sport, wrestling is great because of two people. One person alone can’t put on a show-stopping classic moment. But to his credit, Taker has time and again mentioned the amazing wrestlers who worked with him in the past.
