The iconic character portrayed by the WWE Legend has been barrier-breaking. He had made headlines with ‘The Deadman’ portrayal frequently.

WWE has tweaked his character from time to time for storylines. However, the fundamental core of it has remained unchanged.

In the past three decades, several big names from various industries have congratulated him for the way he conducts himself in the ring.

The perfect farewell for The Undertaker

The Undertaker’s debut was back in the 1990 Survivor Series. Since then, he has had a legendary career alongside the likes of Brock Lesnar, Triple H, Kurt Angle, and others.

At the upcoming Survivor Series 2020, he will make an appearance to bid his fans a final goodbye. There could not have been a better time for the legend to ride off into the sunset.

Previously, he unofficially retired from the ring after The Boneyard Match against AJ Styles at WrestleMania 36.

During an interview, The Undertaker spoke about his journey with WWE.

“I don’t think in our industry, these kinds of careers don’t happen often. It was kind of hard to imagine going for 30 straight years with one company. You don’t envision that when you first start out. You hope you can catch on a little bit, have a run, build momentum where if you have to go somewhere else, like Japan or another promotion you are in good shape. I never planned on going back to WCW once I got to WWE, but I knew Japan and other places, I could have built a strong name and maybe go back and forth.”
