Bill Apter Talks Shane vs Undertaker at WrestleMania 32

WZ TV’s Bill Apter recently spoke with ABC affiliate WPVI in Philadelphia, and during the interview Apter had the following to say about Shane McMahon vs The Undertaker:

“As far as a quality opponent, Shane gives 1,000% of himself no matter what he does so that should tell you what he will be like as an opponent for Taker. Undertaker feeds off of an opponent’s energy so he will have plenty in this Hell in a Cell match. Shane is a reckless hardcore style wrestler. I am looking forward to seeing what out of the box moves he will bring to it,” Apter said.

Fans are torn. Many are hoping Shane McMahon takes Raw away from his evil father, brother-in-law Triple H, and sister Stephanie. But if Shane wins, that means, according to the advertised stipulation, The Undertaker will never wrestle at WrestleMania again.

“If by some chance he does lose, I see some way for him to get back, perhaps that would be at (WWE’s annual August event) SummerSlam,” Apter said.
