Undertaker Reveals Sad Truth About Vince McMahon

“I remember showing up and Vince seeing my arm. Oh my, he cussed me like a dog, ‘Goddam, why would you do that to yourself? You can’t do that. You can’t mess with the gimmick without talking to me first.’ I mean, he went on and on and on about it. He hated tattoos.”

As the years passed, Vince McMahon repeatedly emphasized to his top star that he was not permitted to get any more tattoos. Despite the warnings, The Undertaker defied his boss’s directive by getting a tattoo on the inside of his right forearm. The Deadman would reflect on the situation and note how he managed to ensure Vince McMahon didn’t notice his tattoos.

“He’s like, ‘No more tattoos.’ I’d already decided in my head that I was gonna get my sleeves done. It healed finally, and then I was like, ‘This is the inside [sleeve], he’ll never notice the inside.’ So I got the inside done, and he didn’t, he didn’t notice.”

The Phenom added that Vince McMahon eventually conceded once the tattoos became an integral part of his signature look.
