BREAKING NEWS: The Undertaker Retires
The wave of change continues to ripple throughout the wrestling world as it has officially been announced that, after 29 years wrestling for the WWE, The Undertaker has retired from the squared-circle.
The Undertaker, real name Mark Calaway, debuted in the WWE at Survivor Series 1990 and has gone on to become one of the most legendary figures within the entire industry. During his time with World Wrestling Entertainment, Taker has held the WWE Championship 4 times and the World Heavyweight Championship on 3 occasions, has holding multiple other Titles, and was the winner of the 2007 Royal Rumble match. Championships aside, Undertaker is most notable for his Wrestlemania streak in which he won 21 straight matches on the Grandest Stage of the All before shockingly losing to Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania XXX. The 21-1 record is so famous that it even has it's own wiki page....now that is some serious business right there. 'The Deadman' will likely continue to be linked with WWE in the form of a legends contract which allows him to appear for the promotion, just not in an athletic manner, and for the company to release Undertaker DVDs and other merchandise.
With the retirement coming before Wrestlemania 35 do you believe he will be inducted into this year's Hall of Fame? And what is your favorite Undertaker match? Please comment and keep coming back for more wrestling news.
