Diamond Dallas Page Discusses Why His Feud With The Undertaker Didn't Work

WWE Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page recently spoke with The Irish Sun and discussed a number of topics. Most notably was his feud with The Undertaker when he made his debut with WWE back in 2001, and why the feud did not work out.

Below are some highlights from the interview:

On why his feud with The Undertaker didn’t work:

“I never had any real heat with Taker.

“It wasn’t like we didn’t like each other. But our styles didn’t really mix.

“I knew Mark from WCW before he was ever Taker. And I always liked him.”

On who he wanted to face in his initial WWE run:

“I wanted to do people’s champion versus people’s champion – that was the money.

“If history was different, if Rock would have been there and I’d come there three years later or earlier, that would have been the focus. The angle would have been insane.

“But that wasn’t the way WWE wanted to go because they wanted to send a message.

“People always say, ‘Winners write the history’.

“It didn’t matter if it was me or someone else from WCW facing Taker, we were going to get beat down – because they wanted to say, ‘Hey, we won the war.’”
