Undertaker Retires From Professional Wrestling At 55

Mark Calaway also know as the Undertaker has retired from professional wrestling at age 55.

The World Wrestling Entertainment WWE legend announced his exit from the wrestling business during the final episode of The Last Ride.

Undertaker made his wrestling debut in the 1990 edition of ‘Survival Series ‘ where he put up a sterling performance to eliminate the likes of Dusty Rhode and Koko B Ware and has won every championship title in WWE.

According to Mirror.co.uk, The WWE star claims that he has “nothing left to accomplish” in the ring and It’s time for new guys to come up.

Also known as the Phenom , Callaway said: “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.

“I can do more good outside the ring than I can inside. I’m finally at a place where I can accept that.”

The Last Ride is a docuseries chronicling the last three years of Undertaker, taking an in-depth look at the aging veteran behind the deadman persona, the series explores Calaway’s redemption following a lackluster match with Roman Reigns in 2017, that was supposed to be his last.

In the episode, Calaway recalls his cinematic Boneyard match with AJ Styles at Wrestlemania this year. Taken aback, Calaway describes his bout with Styles as “a perfect ending to a career” that spanned more than three decades.

“There was a lot of thought, a lot of emotion that went through my head, one of those being, ‘Are you happy enough with that?’ It was just a powerful moment, and you don’t always necessarily get those. Man, if there was ever a perfect ending to a career, that right there is it,” Calaway said.

While Calaway did say ” Never say Never”, he did ended up asserting that he doesn’t want to be in the squared circle anymore.

“If Vince [McMahon] was in a pinch, would I come back? I guess time will only tell, there. In case of emergency, break glass, you pull out the Undertaker, I would have to consider that. Never say never, but at this point in my life and my career, I have no desire to get back in the ring. … I’ve got a pit in my stomach right now,” he said.
