7 Reasons Why The Undertaker Should Retire For Good

When age and injuries become major factors, it's time to consider retirement.

It is the time of the year where WWE fans are looking back on the year that was while also looking ahead to the new year with hope that 2015 will be a better year than 2014 was. One of the things that is on a lot of people's minds is whether or not The Undertaker will wrestle at WrestleMania 31. The latest bit of news about The Undertaker is that WWE wants him to work because he's making around $1 million per year and they want to get a return on their investment, so to speak. If he does wrestle at WrestleMania 31 then his likely opponent is Bray Wyatt. At this point, nobody really knows if he'll compete and we probably won't find out for sure for another month or two. Next year's WrestleMania could be the time where he decides not to come back. Maybe he can get inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2015 or even better in 2016 in his home state of Texas since it's going to be in Dallas. Whatever he decides, fans should respect him because of all that he's done in his amazing career. Nobody deserves our respect more than him. What if he doesn't wrestle, though? He's at a point in his life where he really doesn't need to wrestle anymore. He has a wife (Michelle McCool) who he has a daughter with, he has other children from previous marriage and he's done enough to entertain us. There really is nothing left for him to do. Should he wrestle or should he retire for good? It's a debate fans will have for several months and then in the years that follow. I've been at three of the past four WrestleManias including the one from this year. His matches are so compelling live, but there comes a time in everybody's career where they should know the right time to walk away. It might be it for him. Here is one fan's opinion on why The Undertaker should say "that's enough" and never wrestle again.
