Paul Bearer Talks Hall Of Fame, Streak, Last Run

Paul Bearer Talks Hall Of Fame, Streak, Last Run

Posted: Feb 9th 2011 By: CMBurnham

Arda Ocal and Jimmy Korderas recently caught up with Paul Bearer. Highlights:

- Paul Bearer will appear during WrestleMania week, signing autographs at Fan Axxess events, and will be featured in the new WWE video game

- Keeping his return to WWE a secret: "I worked my butt off kayfabing. I hid out all day long ? nobody knew I was even in the building. (When we rehearsed) I popped out of the casket and Teddy Long asked ?Who?s in the Paul Bearer suit?? I had such a good time."

- His latest run in WWE - "I had such a good time working with Undertaker and Kane. It took a little bit to talk me into it. They said it would only be a few shots?if it worked out I could stay a little longer and obviously it did. And then I got kidnapped by Edge ? and working with Edge and Kane and all those vignettes were directed by Vince, himself. And I was so comfortable working with him right there. And I felt that last month was some of the best work I?d ever done. But that ball (that Edge threw at him in the vignettes) hurt like a bitch! "

- Should Taker's streak ever be broken: "NO! Absolutely not! Why should it be? It would never happen again. There?s no reason to break it. He?s certainly earned that spot ? in his biography ? as the Phenom. It?ll never happen again. I would be close to 80 if it ever happened again. Who even knows if he?ll be wrestling at WrestleMania? I don?t."

- Memories of managing the Undertaker in his first match in pro wrestling in Texas before he was the Undertaker

- Talking about his son who is trying his hand at pro wrestling

- Paul Bearer and the Hall of Fame - "I just say ?why now?? I?m in no hurry. I worked my ass of and I think I deserve to be inducted one day. The biggest honour I could have is if I am inducted at the same time the Undertaker goes in. That would be the biggest honour for me. "
