The Undertaker was and always be a WWE lifer.
The period saw several WWF affiliated talent jumping to World Championship Wrestling. Still, The Undertaker wanted no part of WCW as he was and always a WWE lifer.
Bruce Prichard, who currently serves as the Executive Director of Raw and SmackDown, claimed that Vince McMahon knew that The Undertaker would never depart the company. He recently talked on Something to Wrestle podcast,
“I was confident that Taker was a WWE lifer. I believe that Vince was confident that Taker was a WWE lifer. It was just timing, and I don’t know that WCW would know what the hell to do with him. You take him out of the gimmick, and you go back to Mean Mark, and I truly believe that the Undertaker was such a strong character that you wanted to keep that aura. You wanted to keep that mystery. You wanted to make sure that’s what the audience wanted. I think that’s what everybody wanted.” (H/t 411 Mania)
