The Undertaker Announces Retirement From WWE In-Ring Competition

The final chapter of Undertaker: The Last Ride was released yesterday on the WWE Network where The Undertaker finally announced the end of his in-ring career. While focusing on his most recent matches including the victory over AJ Styles in a Boneyard Match at WrestleMania 36, the most prolific performer in sports entertainment mentioned that it as his last outing in a match in WWE.

 

As seen in the documentary, The Undertaker struggled with the idea of calling it a career in the ring. In the latest episode, he addressed how it felt after having that successful match against AJ Styles that saw him riding off on his motorcycle in a trademark style.

 

Then The Undertaker said he can’t top his performances delivered at Extreme Rules 2019 and WrestleMania 36. These two matches were highly praised by the fans. So Taker seemed quite happy that he signed off on his bike after defeating AJ Styles in the main event of WrestleMania 36 (Night 1). It was a perfect ending to his career that was more than three-decades-long (33-year Pro-Wrestling career).

The Undertaker then noted that he has no desire to come back in the ring for another match. This time he feels extremely content with walking away, and also proud of the last couple of matches where his legacy in wrestling was in full display. You can check out his full statement of getting done as an in-ring performer.

The Undertaker: Top 20 Unknown Facts From His Legendary Career

“I believe I’m at a place now, post-Boneyard, which was a hellacious battle against one of the best in the business. Here you are, climbing on your motorcycle and taking off. There was a lot of thought and a lot of emotion, one of those being ‘are you happy enough with that?’ It was a powerful moment. You don’t necessarily always get those. If there was ever a perfect ending to a career, that right there was it.

 

If Vince was in a pinch, would I come back? I guess time would only tell there. In case of emergency, break glass, you pull out The Undertaker. I would consider it. At this point in my career, I have no desire to get back in the ring.

 

I’m at a point, it’s time this cowboy really rides away. There’s nothing left for me to conquer or accomplish. The game has changed. It’s time for new guys to come up. The time just seems right. This documentary has helped me discover that and opened my eyes to the bigger picture and not judge myself as harshly these last few years.” (courtesy wrestlingINC.com)

 

The Undertaker finished off saying that he’s nothing left to conquer in the WWE and it’s time for the new guys to take things over. So he better go away from the scene, in style leaving a ton of memories behind.

 

WWE thanked Taker with a tweet whereas AJ Styles also noted on the social media how he’s honored to be the final opponent of The Phenome at WrestleMania 36. We at SportzWiki would like to thank The Undertaker for entertaining us for the past 30 years and leaving all the memories that we could cherish on the WWE Network. #ThankYouTaker
