Omos has offered a revealing description of The Undertaker’s role in AAA, crediting the WWE icon with helping shape the promotion’s presentation behind the scenes.
During a recent interview, Omos was asked about the performers who inspired him to pursue professional wrestling. Given his stature, the giant pointed first to two of the most recognizable big men in WWE history: The Undertaker and Kane.
“Man, The Undertaker, Kane mostly, I’m a giant, so mostly the guys who are giants out there.”
That answer led naturally into a discussion of The Undertaker’s current involvement with AAA. Omos did not merely speak about him as an inspiration from his childhood or as a legendary figure whose work has influenced wrestlers across generations. Instead, he described The Undertaker as a central creative presence in the company, using a culinary comparison to explain how he views the veteran’s contribution.

“He’s our promoter and our booker of the show. I call him, he’s our Michelin star chef that’s cooking everything up for the show.”
Omos Sees The Undertaker as a Key AAA Architect
The phrase “Michelin star chef” is a striking one, and it makes clear how highly Omos regards The Undertaker’s ability to construct a wrestling show. In Omos’ framing, The Undertaker is not simply adding ideas around the edges. He is the person overseeing the recipe, deciding how the components fit together and helping turn individual ingredients into a finished product.
Professional wrestling creative requires a balance of many moving parts. Matches need stakes, personalities need clear direction, and the overall card needs a rhythm that can keep an audience invested from start to finish. Omos’ comments present The Undertaker as somebody entrusted with that broader task in AAA: a veteran presence helping put together the show as a complete experience rather than looking at each appearance in isolation.
The Undertaker has been involved in AAA’s creative process for roughly the past year and a half. That involvement has coincided with WWE names becoming available to work within the promotion, giving the creative team access to talent that includes Omos. For a wrestler who lists The Undertaker among his foremost influences, being able to work in an environment where the legend is involved in assembling the product is evidently a meaningful opportunity.
Omos’ assessment also speaks to the value of having an experienced performer in a creative role. The Undertaker’s standing was built in front of audiences, but Omos’ comments focus on what he brings away from the spotlight. The “chef” label suggests a process of preparation, selection and presentation: knowing what belongs on the menu, understanding how different elements complement one another, and making sure the final result is ready to be served to the crowd.
A Giant Influenced by Giants
Omos’ answer about his inspirations was concise, but it was also fitting. He identified both The Undertaker and Kane as the wrestlers who most influenced him, emphasizing that he naturally gravitated toward other giants. Their work gave larger-than-life performers a blueprint for how size can be used as part of a character and part of a match without being the only defining feature.
For Omos, that connection now extends beyond influence. The Undertaker is someone whose work helped shape the type of wrestler Omos wanted to become, and he is now also someone Omos credits as being instrumental in the creative direction of AAA. The dynamic adds an unusual layer to their professional connection. Omos is working under a booking structure that, by his description, is being prepared by one of the men he watched as an aspiring wrestler.
Kane was the other name Omos singled out, again underscoring the importance of wrestlers with imposing physical presences to his own development. Omos did not expand on any specific matches, moments or lessons connected to either man. Still, his selection of The Undertaker and Kane makes sense within the context he gave: as a giant himself, he was drawn to giants who had already established enduring identities in the industry.
The comment is also a reminder that inspiration in wrestling can take different forms. It is not always about copying a particular move or borrowing a specific persona. Sometimes it is seeing someone with a comparable physical profile excel at the highest level and recognizing that there is a path forward. Omos’ admiration for The Undertaker and Kane reflects that kind of connection.
What the ‘Chef’ Comparison Says About Booking
Omos’ metaphor is particularly useful because it avoids reducing creative work to a single decision. A chef does not create a meal by relying on one ingredient alone, and wrestling shows similarly depend on more than one match, one name or one angle. The description suggests that The Undertaker’s role involves bringing separate pieces together with a sense of overall purpose.
That does not mean every aspect of a show is necessarily attributable to one person, nor did Omos detail the exact structure of AAA’s creative process. What he did make clear is his perception of The Undertaker as the promotion’s promoter and booker, and as the person “cooking everything up” for the show. It is a strong vote of confidence from a talent who is directly working within that environment.
In wrestling, the people guiding creative direction often have to consider both the immediate response and the longer-term picture. They must decide how to use established stars, how to position newer or visiting talent, and how to make a lineup feel coherent to the audience. Omos’ praise indicates that he believes The Undertaker is handling that responsibility at a high level in AAA.
The Michelin comparison carries another implication: standards. A Michelin-starred restaurant is associated with careful execution and attention to detail. By invoking that image, Omos is saying he sees a level of refinement in how The Undertaker approaches the construction of AAA programming. It is praise for both imagination and discipline, not simply for name value.
AAA’s WWE Connections Continue to Draw Attention
The presence of WWE names in AAA has created a notable point of interest around the promotion, and Omos is among the performers The Undertaker has been able to work with during his time in the creative process. The situation has given AAA a mix of talent and perspectives, with a WWE legend helping shape the environment and WWE performers appearing within it.
Omos’ comments offer one of the clearest talent-side descriptions of how he views that arrangement. Rather than discussing it in abstract terms, he painted a picture of The Undertaker as the person in the kitchen, building the show and bringing together its flavors. It is an image that places emphasis on planning and execution while also revealing Omos’ personal respect for the man overseeing the work.
There is a natural significance in that respect. The Undertaker was one of the giants Omos looked to when he first imagined himself in professional wrestling. Now, Omos is able to describe him not just as an all-time influential figure, but as a contemporary creative guide within AAA. The relationship between inspiration and collaboration is central to what makes his comments stand out.
Omos Also Addressed His Family’s Initial Reaction
Elsewhere in the same interview, Omos discussed telling his parents that he intended to join WWE. He said they were “kinda terrified” when he first shared that decision. While his comments about The Undertaker centered on wrestling inspiration and AAA creative, the remark about his parents provided a separate glimpse at the uncertainty that can surround a decision to enter the industry.
Omos has since found himself in a position to work alongside a creative system he believes is being shaped by one of his biggest inspirations. His description of The Undertaker as AAA’s “Michelin star chef” is playful in wording, but serious in its praise. It reflects Omos’ belief that The Undertaker is applying the same level of care and knowledge to building AAA shows that made him such a major influence on giants like Omos in the first place.
