One final note on the relationship between Vince and The Undertaker: 'Taker would "take a bullet" for his gaffer. He told the cameras that he loves McMahon to death, and Vince reciprocated the compliment by calling Calaway the "most loyal superstar" he's ever dealt with during his run as boss.

At this point in the doc, Batista jumped in as a talking head and said he always viewed The Undertaker as Vince's right hand man. He's not sure if that was actually the case, but nobody was respected more by the WWE figurehead than 'Taker. That respect was handed right back to McMahon, even when 'Taker's body was broken.

The legend told his friend that "the tank's empty" during a 2017 meeting, then offered to keep training on the off chance somebody got injured and Vince needed him to step up. If that happened, he'd be there for McMahon in a heartbeat.

That's loyalty.
