As previously reported, The Undertaker wrestled his first match at Madison Square Garden since September 2010 during last night’s WWE Live Event as he teamed up with Roman Reigns & Braun Strowman against Kevin Owens, Baron Corbin & Elias in a Six-Man Tag Team Match. Ahead of last night’s show, The Undertaker did his trademark eye roll backstage for New York Knicks star Enes Kanter, as seen below:

The official Instagram account of Madison Square Garden also posted this photo of The Undertaker and Kanter:

Kanter has been a long time wrestling fan and said as far back as 2010 that he wants to wrestle after he’s done playing basketball, as seen below:
“After my basketball career, I want to be a wrestler, professional wrestler,” Kanter said in a radio interview.
Kanter also said that The Undertaker is his favorite wrestler, as seen below:

“I started watching like four or five years ago, and right now I feel like [The Undertaker] on the court. His nickname is unbelievable that’s why I love it, “The Deadman,” I love it.”
He even has a little play on words with his last name, as seen below:
“People started calling me The Underkanter. Right now my nickname is Underkanter.”

Now in 2018, the 26-year-old professional basketball player would still want to consider a WWE career after retiring from basketball. He said so while answering a question on Twitter in May, as seen below:

Kanter isn’t shy about his love for professional wrestling as he posed for photos with Brock Lesnar, Braun Strowman, The New Day and John Cena at WWE’s last event at Madison Square Garden back in March, as seen below:
