WWE has been expanding with new shows in recent months such as WWE Legends & Future Greats and WWE Evolve. WWE Legends & Future Greats features up and coming talent who are competing for a contract as they are mentored by some familiar faces.
Names like Booker T, Bubba Ray Dudley, The Undertaker and Mickie James have been featured as mentors on the show, and the series has been renewed for season 2. However, Mickie James will not be returning.
Fightful Select is reporting that sources close to A&E claimed that The Undertaker was instrumental in getting his wife on the show. The claim from those close to WWE Legends & Future Greats is that The Undertaker was open to contributing to the show if Michelle McCool was involved.
Michelle McCool was brought in to replace Mickie James, but Fightful reported that they have not heard anything claiming that The Undertaker wanted Mickie James off the show, or wanted her to be replaced. It’s being said that he just wanted Michelle McCool on the show.
Stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
