Bruce Prichard's 'Something To Wrestle With' podcast is a real treat for older wrestling fans who enjoy nostalgia. Better yet, the former manager and backstage producer lifts the lid on many topics to reveal fascinating hidden gems. Lately, Prichard was at it again when it came to the subject of The Undertaker.

Originally 'Taker's manager as Brother Love, Bruce claims he could see an Undertaker babyface run before anyone else in the WWF. Riding alongside Vince McMahon in 1991, Prichard stuck an AC/DC tape on in the car and played his boss the song 'Hell's Bells'. McMahon asked his employee what he was doing.

Explaining, Prichard said that he wanted to produce a video about The Undertaker using that very track. Digging the concept, McMahon started to warm to the idea of someday turning Undertaker babyface. Not only that, but he could see where Prichard was coming from.

Feeling fans would rally behind such a move, Bruce encouraged his boss to make The Undertaker a huge face when he did eventually pull the trigger on a turn. Agreeing, Vince said he would.
