He revealed that the goal was to go out with a big match. For that reason, the documentary is being seen as a set up for the massive match.

“Right now, I don’t know. Obviously, I want to go out with a match on the big stage with a performance that you will think, ‘That is The Undertaker that I have known and have watched for 30 years. I just want to be at that level so people can say, ‘Why on earth are you retiring? Why are you retiring when there is so much left in the tank. I think that match is still in me, and I think I can deliver it. I think once that match is there, I think I can walk away and be happy. This doc has really changed my perspective on a lot of things. It’s a personal thing, I don’t think I have anything left to prove to anyone. This is an internal thing and, in my mind, I’ve envisioned my exit and I’m just trying to find that exit.”
