A couple of weeks ago, WWE saw one of their biggest and arguably one of their most iconic superstar of all time draw curtains on his illustrious pro-wrestling career as The Undertaker announced his retirement from sports entertainment. The Undertaker announced his retirement saying that his last match against AJ Styles at WrestleMania 36 was "storytelling at its finest" and the "perfect ending" to his 30-year-long pro-wrestling career. Since then, WWE has released multiple tribute videos where WWE superstars, Hall of Famers, legends, officials and others can be seen praising The Phenom. In a recently released video, WWE Hall of Famers Stone Cold Steve Austin and Mick Foley can be seen talking about The Undertaker and thanking him for his contribution to the company.
