Long would become arguably the most iconic General Manager in WWE history, being famous for dancing to his own theme song and having famous catchphrases. This included him booking stars in a match against The Undertaker.
While speaking on the One on One podcast, Teddy Long recalled how Vince McMahon helped inspire him to come up with that catchphrase featuring The Undertaker.
“Vince McMahon had sent Stephanie McMahon out there to make an introduction, and when Stephanie came back, Vince commented that he wanted a little bit more enthusiasm on the introduction.”
“He really wanted to build the guy up when introducing. So, I was standing there and listening; I didn’t say anything.”
“So, what I did was when I got to the promo with The Undertaker, that’s when I remembered what Vince said to build him up. That’s when I said, “One-on-one with The Undertaker. And that’s how it all started.”
