While talking about his dynamic with WWE Chairman Vince McMahon, Calaway said that their friendship grew over the years because McMahon trusted him with The Undertaker character. He added that the gimmick was originally Vince's idea, but the boss gave him a lot of creative freedom with it and trusted him when he felt that he needed to make the transition to the American Bada** gimmick. He also talked about being grateful to Vince for giving him an opportunity in WWE.

If we butt heads or we don’t agree, which is gonna happen, it’s a creative business. We’re not gonna always see eye to eye. You and I may not have the same vision on a finish but we’ll get there.
There's no telling where I would have been if he hadn’t given me the chance. I just never forgot that.
