The end is upon us – The Undertaker is saying goodbye to WWE at Survivor Series.
The living legend and sure fire future Hall of Famer will have his final farewell at this month’s pay-per-view on November 22, which comes three decades after he made his debut at the same annual event.
In a tweet on Friday, the company’s PR account tweeted: ‘BREAKING: @undetaker’s Final Farewell Set for @WWE #SurvivorSeries
‘Undertaker’s Final Farewell will take place at #SurvivorSeries on Sunday, November 22 at 7 pm ET streaming live on @WWENetwork capping off The Phenom’s legendary 30-year career. #ThankYouTaker (sic)’
Although you can never say never in the world of pro wrestling, it seems the Dead Man is truly ready for life after WWE after confirming his retirement earlier this year.
Undertaker – who first made his debut at Survivor Series 1990 – has been chasing a storybook ending to his iconic career for a number of years, and now it seems his Boneyard Match from this year’s WrestleMania could have been that elusive swansong.
In the epic finale of WWE Network series The Last Ride, he said: ‘I believe I’m at a place now, post-Boneyard – which was a hellacious battle against one of the best in the business [AJ Styles].
‘Here you are, climbing on your motorcycle and taking off. There was a lot of thought and a lot of emotion, one of those being, “Are you happy enough with that?”
‘It was a powerful moment. You don’t necessarily always get those. If there was ever a perfect ending to a career, that right there was it.
‘If Vince was in a pinch, would I come back? I guess time would only tell there. In case of emergency, break glass, you pull out The Undertaker.
‘I would consider it. At this point in my career, I have no desire to get back in the ring.’
As part of Undertaker’s Final Farewell and 30th anniversary, WWE is celebrating 30 Years of the Deadman throughout November, including recently debuted documentaries Meeting The Undertaker and WWE Untold: The Phenom and The Legend Killer on WWE Network as well as The Mortician: The Story of Paul Bearer premiering this Sunday, November 8 and Brothers of Destruction, which will stream on WWE Network on Sunday, November 15.
In addition, Undertaker will be a special guest on Steve Austin’s Broken Skull Sessions immediately following Survivor Series.
