I mean it's been an amazing career and the last 3 or 4 years won't really matter much looking back on his entire career, but I don't blame anyone for wanting to see him retire with the matches he's been putting on lately. The Shane match is one of the most boring matches I've ever seen, the Roman match wasn't that much better, the Rusev match was alright at best, the Cena match was a total squash (which is fine), Super Show Down was terrible and I won't even watch Crown Jewel. Yeah i get that but you'd think it was the Canadian murderer the way some are whining about it. Erm, no? No one's saying strike Taker's name from the history books, we're just saying get him offscreen because since 2009 he's only been good for one quality match a year and since 2016 he's not even been delivering that much.

The Undertaker matches should've ended with the Lesnar one, IMO. Without the mystique of the streak, it takes away from the spectacle of it all, especially now that Taker can barely work a match anymore. His matches just don't feel special anymore.
Time is undefeated, nevah lost.

He's old and can't do anything worthwhile in-ring. Time to hang it up. It was time to hang it up in 2010. By now he's just embarrassing. Nah 2015.

I'd go one further and say at the latest should've ended with the Mania 28 Triple H match. Story-wise is really brought the character to a conclusion (and definitely a more appropriate one than going out on Mania 27 would've) and really the only thing you're missing out on after it is the Punk match which is good but is really buoyed by being the only thing of any worth on the Mania 29 card.

It will be a bit weird with a 100% done Undertaker. But it’s past time that it happens. Safe to say he’s a armed his retirement.

Taker put great matches literally until the end. The hate he randomly and unjustly gets now is a joke.

I think the only more boring Hell in a Cell match than Taker / Shane is Owens / Shane and that's just because it's ten minutes longer. The Big Bossman vs The Undertaker in the cell at Wrestlemania 15 felt like it went on for 30 years

I’d guess he’ll still fight at the Saudi shows for the huge paydays. The Cena and Rusev matches were a good use of him and didn’t expose his limitations.

One of the GOAT without doubt, but he can't go anymore.

It's not that Taker can barely walk, it's that he can barely limp. Apparently he has the same age Brisco had when he started as a stooge on tv. Go home Taker, just eat a sandwich and yell at the kids for stepping on your flowers. Or - or, hear me out here - Undertaker and Kane as the new Stooges. I would love to see them fight over the Hardcore title in drag. Kane vs. Undertaker. Trying to tear off each other's wrestling tights, give each other business suits, and burn their attires to absorb each other's powers.

He’s gotta wrap at 30 years at Survivor Series. There’s no reason he can’t accomplish what he did when he debuted.

I guess one can only embarrass themselves for big paydays so much in one year. Oh well, I can’t wait for the Brothers of Deatruction Wig and Hair Extension display at Axxess!!
