The Undertaker might have wrestled his final match on Sunday at WrestleMania 33 in Orlando, Florida against Roman Reigns. According to the latest WWE rumors, The Undertaker left his trench coat, gloves and hat in the center of the ring after the match as a sign of his retirement.
The WWE booked The Undertaker vs. Roman Reigns as the main event of WrestleMania 33 with Jim Ross coming back to call the match. It was at the end of a seven-hour event so the people were already exhausted and the match showed that "The Deadman" really needs to hang it up.
"The Big Dog" used all the weapons in his arsenal including a real weapon (steel chair) to defeat The Undertaker at WrestleMania 33. Reigns had a hard time putting down the 52-year-old legend and it took four devastating spears to get the pinfall victory for only The Undertaker's second loss at WrestleMania, as recapped by WWE.com.
After the match was over, The Undertaker wore his trench coat and hat again before removing them along with his gloves and putting it in the center of the ring. According to Wrestling Inc, the gesture was a sign of "The Phenom" ending his legendary career.
There is still no official announcement from the WWE or The Undertaker that he is retired but all signs point to it. Vince McMahon decided to give him the main event while he probably asked J.R. to call his final match. He is also scheduled to have hip surgery after WrestleMania 33.
Nevertheless, things will get clearer on Monday Night Raw where the main roster might put together a show dedicated to the career of Mark Calaway. The Undertaker has been wrestling for more than three decades, 27 years of which were in the WWE. He made his WWE debut at 1990 Survivor Series before becoming one of the greatest superstars, wrestlers and characters in wrestling history.
"The Deadman" is a future Hall of Famer and he has done it all. He is seven-time WWE World champion, seven-time Tag Team champion and the 2007 Royal Rumble winner. He also had a 21-match winning streak at WrestleMania and an overall record of 23-2 in the event.
