Lola Vice, one-half of the AAA World Mixed Tag Team Champions, opened up about the profound influence The Undertaker has had on her career during a recent conversation with Busted Open. The legendary wrestler, now deeply involved behind the scenes with WWE’s Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide production, transitioned from being a formidable in-ring competitor to a guiding force in the wrestling industry. Vice expressed her gratitude for the opportunities that came from working alongside him, emphasizing how his mentorship helped her grow as a performer.
The Undertaker’s Role as Mentor and Supporter
Before shifting focus to his executive duties with AAA, The Undertaker was one of the most intimidating wrestlers in professional wrestling history. Now, he dedicates himself to nurturing talent and managing AAA’s wrestling events. Vice described how initially she felt shy around the wrestling legend but over time developed a strong bond with him. She praised his patience during rehearsals, mentioning occasions where The Undertaker spent up to five hours in the ring with her, listening to her ideas and offering valuable guidance.
“At first, I was a little shy around him. But I’ve grown to love him so much and Undertaker has stood in the ring with me in rehearsals for five hours and he’s listened to my crazy ideas and he’s guided me so well but, I feel like Undertaker has really believed in me, and it just means so much to me because he’s such an inspiration to me and just having him there… sometimes I can’t even believe that’s my boss in AAA. It’s The Undertaker and I’m just so grateful for these opportunities he’s given me and winning the tag titles, it just makes me so happy the way that AAA has developed and having Undertaker there, I’m just so grateful and he’s such an amazing inspiration and role model.”
