The Undertaker might have retired from the in-ring competition, but is still an integral part of WWE. ‘The Deadman’ has a multi-year contract already signed with WWE for appearances to represent the company at signing and meet and greet events.

Further, Taker took his rightful place in the WWE Hall of Fame in early April this year. Since then, he is enjoying his life after retirement from professional wrestling.

However, The Undertaker, Seth Rollins, Edge, AJ Styles, Matt Riddle and Sheamus are scheduled for the Dallas event only.

Why did The Deadman transition into The American Badass?

The Undertaker was a unique character that is arguably the company’s most recognizable creation for the WWE Universe. However, when the Attitude Era began, his Deadman gimmick was not picking up the pace in terms of promo with the other superstars.

When Taker was out with a groin injury, he had a chance to re-invent his character. As a result, Taker returned as ‘The American Badass’ who was a motorcycle-riding, tobacco-chewing and smack-talking character. Also, he changed his fighting style by adding some quick punches like street fighters.

‘The Phenom’ survived successfully for four years with the gimmick change. Although the base gimmick was of The Deadman, he revived the old character with a slight twist at WrestleMania 20. He eternalized The Deadman throughout his career.
