Sami Zayn told BT Sport that The Undertaker called his NXT feud with Neville "money" during a rare backstage visit to the brand in 2014.

The locker room was abuzz when people found out that 'Taker would be stopping by to check out some of the matches. Sami was particularly happy when the legend pulled him aside following an in-ring promo to say, "That’s how you do it! That’s how you sell tickets! That was a money promo!".

That must've felt awesome for Zayn, but the 'Deadman' wasn't done yet.

He stuck around to check out the match between Sami and Neville a little later on. Again, he couldn't praise it enough - The Undertaker told both men that they should be proud of themselves for telling a story rather than going out there to whizz through a bunch of spots.

Sami was delighted to learn that 'Taker had pulled up a chair to take the headliner in. He was even more elated when the icon lavished both he and Neville with heartfelt compliments afterwards. That told Zayn he was on the right track.
