It was revealed on February 18th that The Undertaker would be the first inductee into the class of 2022. However, it was left to speculation as to who would be the person to induct him. Everyone from Kane, to Mick Foley, to fellow Texan “Stone Cold” Steve Austin was discussed, but it was inevitable McMahon would be the man for the job. McMahon confessed that it will be the “hardest thing I have ever had to do” because he “loves the guy”. Undertaker has shown an unconditional loyalty to the WWE and McMahon for well over thirty years and it is, therefore, no surprise that McMahon will be ushering Undertaker into the Hall of Fame. With only Steve Austin having had the honor of being inducted by McMahon, it is clear how highly Undertaker is valued.
