The Undertaker, one of the most unique and iconic characters in the history of professional wrestling, recently opened up about various topics, including his Hall of Fame speech, the upcoming Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk boxing match, and his favorite ring gear, in a Q&A session on his Patreon page.

When asked about his favorite ring gear of all time, The Dead Man revealed that his post-American badass setup was his preferred choice due to its comfort:

“My favorite gear was the singlet with the kind of leather-ish-looking pants. I guess it was the modified Undertaker that I came back after the American badass run where I kept the pants but went back… you know had the singlet, the MMA gloves. It was just the most comfortable to move around. I never really liked the tights but I say that and I see a lot of people what they wear and it’s like… a little decorum please, as far as ring gear. But the leather pants, the singlet, the duster, the hat, MMA gloves, that was probably my favorite.”

The Undertaker also commented on some of the ring gear he wasn’t particularly fond of. This included the python pants from his Survivor Series 2000 match against Kurt Angle and the bat wings he wore for his match against Mankind at Madison Square Garden in Survivor Series ’96:

“I didn’t like the Python pants and I didn’t like the Undertaker pirate kind of look where I took the bat wings and I descended into the garden. That was so much cooler in my brain. The application wasn’t quite as cool as it was in my brain. In my brain, I was like ‘This is scary. This is gonna be so scary people are gonna freak out’ and then I just kind of looked like a jacked-up Gene Simmons.”

Additionally, The Undertaker shared that he wasn’t a fan of changing his gloves, knee pads, and boots frequently, recounting a humorous story about Triple H making fun of his worn-out boots.

The Q&A provided fans with fascinating insights into The Undertaker’s career and personal preferences, highlighting the evolution of his iconic character and the thought process behind some of his most memorable looks.
