Over the weekend photos circulated on social media of The Undertaker, Vince McMahon and Shane McMahon attending the Super Bowl together.
The photos raised some eyebrows amongst fans who have been following the allegations against the former creative force and head of WWE.
The Undertaker addressed the speculation during his appearance on the Busted Open After Dark podcast, show with host Bully Ray.
The Undertaker revealed that he was invited by McMahon as his guest.
“I am going to get hate for that. People are like” ‘Oh you guys were so close, you know what happened.’ I’m like: ‘I don’t know what’s been done, what hasn’t been done. We don’t talk about those things but he is a friend of mine,” he began.
“First off, he gave me an opportunity to make something of my life and become something. That is one thing. Through the course of all of those years, we became very close friends. After my father passed away he was a father figure, he was a brother, he was a mentor. He always treated my family with the utmost respect,” he said.
The Undertaker claimed he doesn’t know everything that has happened.
“I am not the judge on this case. I am not the judge. There is only ONE judge. That’s the man upstairs. He is going to give us all whatever we deserve at the end. People in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones. If you really look at your life, if people get off their high horse and their righteousness, social media and everything, I don’t have to agree with everything that people do. It doesn’t change the fact that I love someone and I am friends with someone. It doesn’t mean I am going to do the same things. That’s the way it is,” he continued.
Bully Ray then brought up the fact that marrying Michelle McCool, a devout Christian, brought Taker closer to God.
“As a Christian, we know that there is no greater strength than forgiveness,” said Ray.
“You have to be able to forgive,” The Undertaker agreed.
