The Undertaker took a shot at the current generation of Superstars and their behaviour in the locker room, and Xavier Woods has responded to his assertion.

The Undertaker compared the locker room environment from his time to what it is now and indicated that Superstars have become soft. He preferred the time when “men were men”.

Even though ‘The Phenom’ acknowledged that it could be evolution, it still doesn’t suit him. To him, a locker room should be a place where everyone was ready to handle anything thrown their way and not be concerned with elements such as looks.

In the same interview, The Undertaker revealed he finds it difficult to watch WWE because the product and Superstars have become soft. He doesn’t specifically mention anybody by name.

Xavier Woods did not sit back. He responded to Taker by providing an insight into his journey throughout the years where Superstars from other generations have helped him grow.

Not only did Xavier Woods stand up for his generation of Superstars, but even his fans supported him.

It takes a lot of courage to respond to the words of someone as legendary as The Undertaker.

The Undertaker could have made a better judgement

The Undertaker may have been a tad bit hard in judging the current generation. However, he’s got his own reasons.

Taker did not have a simple journey when he pursued wrestling as a career during his college days. He trained on front yards, waited at lobbies for bookings, and sold off almost everything he owned to achieve his goal.

It’s obvious that every generation will have their own story to tell. In fact, it’s possible the generation which follows will have elements that the current generation will find flawed.

It’s clear that the generation he called “soft” is the same one that was thrilled to work with him in WWE.
