WWE made their decision to induct The Undertaker into the Hall of Fame class of 2022 months ago, according to Sean Ross Sapp.
This week, it was announced that the Phenom will be the first inductee into this year’s class, after an incredible three-decade career with the company.
Sapp reports that WWE made the decision before the Royal Rumble and that no one else is more fitting of being inducted in Texas than the former WWE World Champion.
The Undertaker is being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. Internally, this has been solidified since well before Royal Rumble. It couldn’t be anyone else
