The Undertaker took a dig at the Eagles following their horrendous end to the season this year.

The Dallas Cowboys have one of the most loyal fanbases in football. Despite the team’s disappointing record and repeatedly failed attempts at making the Super Bowl for the last three decades, America’s team has fans who keep coming back to show their support for the players. Legendary wrestler The Undertaker forms a part of the team’s fanbase and has attended games of the team on multiple occasions.
At the recent WrestleMania 40 event, The Undertaker made a cameo wherein he was greeted with the cheers of fans. However, considering the event took place in the city of Brotherly Love, he received a fair share of boos from the fans of the Philadelphia Eagles. One fan was bold enough to call him out for his support of America’s team and reminded him of the team’s monumental collapse to the Green Bay Packers in the Wild Card round of the playoffs.
The Undertaker spares no punches, and he did not do so this time either. The wrestler shot back at the fan by reminding him of the Eagles’ terrible ending to their season.
The Eagles won just three out of their final 8 games. A stark contrast to the first ten weeks of the regular season where they won 10 games and lost just one game. The Eagles then went on to lose the Wild Card game to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 32-9. It was surprising to see that the Eagles fan decided to direct a jab at the Undertaker concerning the Cowboys considering America’s team ended up beating the former to win the division.
The wrestler struck a nerve and after his rebuttal, the fan was left speechless. A point to note from this point forward is to never mess with the Undertaker when it comes to his support of the Dallas Cowboys. Every franchise dreams of having fans as loyal as him!
The sport of football is one close to his heart, The Undertaker played football in his High School, and he was a dual-sport athlete who played basketball as well. In college, however, he decided to pursue a basketball scholarship and his days of playing football came to an end. He has been a fan of the team since his childhood.
