WWE legend Undertaker has revealed the iconic Andre The Giant wanted a match against him.
And The Eighth Wonder of the World had the perfect plan to instigate the feud – although he took that secret to grave.
Standing at 7ft 4in, Andre was the planet’s most well-known wrestler throughout the 1970s and 80s.
Ill health meant the monstrous Frenchman was on the decline by the time Taker arrived in WWE back in 1990.
But the Dead Man has spoken about how Andre, who passed away due to congestive heart failure in 1993, had a masterplan to have one last epic counter with the Phenom.
Undertaker, a seven-time world champion, told Pastor Ed Young as part of the Wrastlin’ series: “I never got the chance to wrestle Andre. By the time that I got there, his health was really in decline. He wrestled a few times and it was funny because Andre was really old school.
“Andre didn’t like big guys either — he loved me, thank goodness. But for most big guys he thought they were arrogant or bullies or whatnot, but he had his way with a lot of guys that you would be like, ‘Oh that’s a pretty tough guy,’ [but] Andre would set him straight.
“Anyway, he liked me and, you know, I guess we always think we got one [match] left in us you know.”

Taker, who fights fellow legend Triple H at WWE’s Super Show-Down on Saturday, continued: “He’d come in, he’s Andre The Giant. Biggest star that’s ever [been] at that time in wrestling. Worldwide phenomenon, he was always the first guy in the locker room.
“He was always there, he would love to sit there and play Cribbage and I’d come in and say, ‘Hey boss, how you doing today?’

“[He’d say], ‘Good. You know one day kid, me and you. I have this idea.’ ‘Oh really boss? Tell me about it.’ And he’d never tell me.”
It was not just Undertaker that Andre would not tell, the Giant kept his plan secret until his dying day.
Taker added: “A good friend of mine to this day, his name is Tim White, he drove Andre around, he was one of the referees, and I had asked Tim all the time: ‘Did he ever tell you?’ I would ask and he’d never tell me.
“He was old school in that because he didn’t want anyone else to do it because he thought he was going to get to a point where he could get back in the ring and we could do something that would be a big deal.
“No one knows what it was, but you know he ended up passing away and he never let me know. I wonder to this day, ‘Man, I bet it was good.”

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
