The Undertaker and former United States President George W. Bush met at the venue of next year’s WrestleMania.

The Dead Man, who was at the Dallas Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium on Sunday with his fellow WWE legend and wife Michelle McCool, met with the Republican politician as they took in the action.

The Cowboys may have lost to the Denver Broncos, but ‘Taker and Bush still seemed in great spirits during the day as they shared a firm handshake.

He also appeared to be signing autographs for members of the military, and was able to pose with Michelle for a photo on the field.

Of course, in April 2022 the stadium will host both nights of WrestleMania 38, and the Phenom referenced that as he shared some snaps on Instagram.

He wrote: ‘The Deadman in Dallas… getting ready for #WrestleMania @attstadium with the @dallascowboys.’

His fellow wrestlers were quick to respond, and AEW’s Chris Jericho was very impressed with one picture in particular.

‘Dude that’s so awesome u met President Bush!!!! (sic),’ he wrote, while John ‘Bradshaw’ Layfield added: ‘God bless Texas’.

Undertaker will be back at AT&T Stadium on Wednesday (November 10) as WWE hosts its official WrestleMania On-Sale party.

The company revealed: ‘The WrestleMania On-Sale Party is FREE, family-friendly and open to the public! All fans in attendance will receive an exclusive WrestleMania souvenir ticket.

WWE has promised ‘live in-ring matches featuring NXT Superstars’ at AT&T Stadium for the special gathering, plus kids activities, music and official merch, while big names will be there to sign autographs.

It’s rare that Undertaker makes WWE appearances these days, and just last month he was on hand to introduce Pitbull in Saudi Arabia – but didn’t feature at Crown Jewel the next night.
