Last year The Undertaker wrestled in his last match when he defeated AJ Styles in the Boneyard Match at WrestleMania 36, and he later confirmed his retirement at the 2020 Survivor Series pay-per-view.
It doesn’t sound like The Deadman has any plans to return to the ring, and during a recent appearance on The Norm & D Invasion on Sportsradio 96.7 he confirmed that he needs multiple surgeries.
“Both my hips are partial hip replacements already. I need… I need a right knee, so I have surgeries lined up. I just… I gotta wait until hunting season is over for [them].”
The former WWE Champion also noted that he misses performing for the fans, but he knew during his last match that his time had come in regards to in-ring competition.
“I miss performing in front of our live audiences, especially around WrestleMania time. It’s just, you know, it’s the game. I was very blessed to have a very long career where I was active for so many years, but the body can only take so much and deliver so much, and for me that time. I realized at the last WrestleMania that I had, that I did [WrestleMania 36] that my time had come.”
Taker also recently shared his honest opinion on Brock Lesnar ending the streak, and you can get more on that here.
