WWE's latest PPV, Backlash, managed to impress fans, and "The Greatest Wrestling Match Ever" between Edge and Randy Orton certainly lived up to the expectations. A bunch of wrestling legends and Superstars later opened up on what they thought of the match. WWE veteran The Undertaker has now revealed his thoughts on the match as well, on the latest edition of After The Bell.

The Undertaker said that he almost shed a tear while watching Edge vs Randy Orton at Backlash, and later sent a text to Edge.

Last night, Backlash. Edge and Randy, wow! Honestly, it almost brought a tear to my eye, 'cause I hadn't seen that kind of a wrestling match in so long, you know. I understand the time parameters, they had a lot of time, but my gosh, what a story they told. What an unbelievable story.
I sent Edge a text today, like, the next time I go down to the PC and work with guys, I'm gonna pull that tape up and show these guys, and dissect... not that... it'll probably be dissected a 100 times by then, but just the little nuances of the things that those two guys did last night, it just... it was phenomenal.
