The Undertaker was "captivated" by one match at WWE WrestleMania 41

The Undertaker attended WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas after inducting his wife, Michelle McCool, into the 2025 WWE Hall of Fame. In the latest episode of his podcast, The Deadman spoke highly of the women's Triple Threat match on April 20.

WrestleMania Sunday began with IYO SKY retaining the Women's World Championship against Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley. The 14-minute bout was widely viewed as one of the best matches from WrestleMania 41 weekend.

On Six Feet Under, The Undertaker praised McCool for paving the way for WWE's current female stars. The 60-year-old also made it clear how much the Women's World Championship match impressed him.

"I think you have to have a sense of pride in the dues that you guys paid to get to the point where at WrestleMania, when we watched that Triple Threat, it was really good," The Undertaker said. "You know how critical I am and such a cynic, but they had me captivated. That was really impressive." [19:15 – 19:50]

The Triple Threat ended with SKY pinning Belair after performing a top-rope moonsault. The closing stages also saw Belair whip Ripley with her braid.

Michelle McCool's favorite WWE women

WrestleMania 41 featured four women's matches, including Jade Cargill's victory over Naomi and Tiffany Stratton's WWE Women's Championship defense against Charlotte Flair. In the tag division, the returning Becky Lynch teamed up with Lyra Valkyria to win the Women's Tag Team Championship from Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez.

Asked to name her favorite female wrestlers right now, Michelle McCool struggled to choose just one:

"I love watching Rhea. That's an easy one. I love watching Liv's work. Chelsea Green cracks me up. I love watching her character. Bianca, obviously. Naomi. I was there with Nattie [Natalya]. I love seeing Nattie still on TV doing her thing. Who am I missing here? There's so many of them. That's the problem. Obviously Charlotte, obviously Becky. Take your pick. And that's the thing. Top to bottom, they're strong." [19:57 – 20:25]

In the same episode, The Undertaker spoke publicly for the first time about his recent heart issues.
