The Miz explains why he’s glad The Undertaker got involved in the main event of WWE WrestleMania 40.

John Cena, The Undertaker, and The Rock all interfered in the main event on Sunday, where Cody Rhodes beat Roman Reigns to win the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. Heading into the show, many fans expected to see “Stone Cold” Steve Austin appear in the main event, and some were disappointed by his absence.

Speaking on The Pat McAfee Show, The Miz commented on the main event. He explained why The Undertaker’s involvement was meaningful.

“Dare I say that that was the best main event I’ve her seen in WWE WrestleMania history? You got to see everything,” The Miz said. “A lot of people were like, ‘I want Stone Cold Steve Austin.’ I love that it was The Undertaker. Because the Undertaker is the locker room leader, he’s the person that has always…if he puts his stamp on you, that means more than everything as a WWE superstar. The fact that Undertaker was out there to help Cody Rhodes says, ‘Hey, we have a new face. We have a new era, and this is Cody Rhodes’ era.’”
