AJ Styles and The Undertaker stole the show at WrestleMania in their Boneyard match, and the Deadman has now weighed in on what it was like to find out the match was no longer taking place in front of a live crowd.
"We always envisioned this match happening in a live arena and then somewhere there in the last few weeks when we didn’t know what was gonna happen the next day," The Undertaker explained. "The idea was thrown at me about doing something off-site and I was like yeah that’s a much better option than trying to have the match that AJ and the Undertaker would have inside an empty arena."
"So I guess in our case we were very fortunate to be able to go off-site and do what we did and the final product," he continued. "Like I said, I couldn’t be you know more proud of it under the circumstances you know all the different things going on everybody to pull together and put something like that out there it was different and was intriguing. Yeah, I can’t speak for AJ but I’m very proud of what we did."
The Undertaker went on to joke that he would have called it a "Buried Alive" match rather than a "Boneyard" one, and blamed Styles for the change. However, he also sang the praises of The Phenomenal One.
"For me, that put me right back in my wheelhouse," he says in the player below. "AJ could work with a broom handle and put a four-star match on."
