You’d think he gets one big final entrance in character at Wrestlemania with the druids and the urn and all the other bells and whistles. I can’t picture him just standing on the ramp wearing a suit and waving for 15 seconds like all the others. Kinda like how Austin in 2009 got a special entrance outside of all the other inductees, driving his ATV to the ring and having a beer bash. Possibly, but you try and get Rock for that, right? Especially considering he'll be the one 'Mania's likely built around. You save Rock’s induction for another year, maybe when they inevitably run Florida again. Yeah, Rock main eventing and headlining the HoF the same year could be done but they can have their cake and eat it too by doing them in separate years and getting double the publicity.

It kind of sad says that Paul Bearer passed away since he would had been the perfect person to induct The Undertaker. OOOOOOH YESSSSSSSSSSS!

What, no one thinks Teddy Long should induct him? Yeah, either Kane or Foley. Unless he has some surprise one none of us are thinking of to get him in.

First reported by the NY Post…. It seems like WWE finds new ways to remind us of how scummy they are at every possible opportunity. How is it scummy ? It’s stupid that they try and pass off these announcements as major scoops for those who announce them but not sure how it’s scummy.

Brock should induct him, and then he kicks Taker in the dick

10 minute Undertaker entrance confirmed for one of the nights then.
That'll fill up some time.
Deserved. He's my GOAT and I'll always be a fan of the character.

I’ve seen Undertakers entrance at 3 manias (20,28&29) - words cannot describe how epic it is , and a chance to see it again probably for the last time ever is enough of a reason for me to attend wrestlemania

They're going to be in Texas, Austin is apparently going to be there anyway, and he's always only had good things to say about Undertaker, so I'd be surprised if it's not Austin inducting him. Austin can talk about trying to get him to laugh and get his "the thing about the Undertaker is, he'll sell on the move for ya!" bit and there's not really a bigger star to ask for than Austin.

I got 5 bucks that says his HOF Entrance will take over 5 minutes. And that might be before he even starts speaking.

And in I would give WWE flack for inducting him posthumously. But I guess they didn’t have much of a choice.

Very well deserved. Also, I'd be perfectly fine if they made him a solo inductee.

Do the induction out of character and let Calloway say what he wants, and then do one big entrance at one of the WM nights so the character can say goodbye and wash out the taste of that awful Thunderdome segment. That's what I'd do.

It boggles my mind that Taker is getting inducted at like 10:30 after SmackDown on Peacock.

He should be a class of one. And Vince should do the induction. A few years ago, I said that whenever The Undertaker is inducted in the WWE Hall of Fame, it should be his night and his night alone. And I stand by that. Turn the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2022 into a one-night celebration of The Undertaker. Have all of his great rivals, partners, and running buddies come out and offer speeches, toasts, remarks, hell, turn it into an ersatz roast if you want. But if it's a two-hour spectacle, the first 90 or so minutes should be comments from the likes of Vince McMahon, Paul Heyman, Ted DiBiase, Kane, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Mick Foley, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Godfather, JBL, Rikishi, etc., and then The Undertaker gets the mic for as long as he wants. Undertaker should say that his only regret in his career was unzipping the bodybag belonging to Buck Zumhofe.

I hope he gets the big full Undertaker entrance at Wrestlemania, and I expect he will. It felt wrong that his retirement was in the Thunderdome with fake chants piped in. Not the send off he should have.
