The look on 'Taker's face whenever he attempted to watch back his WrestleMania 33 match against Roman Reigns said more than your writer's words ever could. It was clear that he wasn't proud of that match and it says a lot that he was willing to admit that on The Last Ride.

It's hard to argue with the legend because on that fateful 2017 night when we all thought The Undertaker had finally decided to bow out, the only time it truly felt like we were witnessing the magnificence of the immortal Undertaker was during that faux retirement ceremony after the match.

The man during the match, on the other hand, looked incredibly mortal - worryingly so - as a fragile, limping and out-of-shape 'Taker was tasked with main-eventing the biggest show of the year (his first time in seven years) and giving Reigns the same rub he gave to Lesnar three years prior.

It was a task too tall for the ailing 'Phenom' who looked lost at times in the ring, delivering one of his worst in-ring performances at an event in which he's renowned for delivering his best.

'Taker himself admitted that he should have been nowhere near the ring that year, let alone in the main event, and we're all just thankful that he managed to successfully deal with his nagging hip injury and deliver a few more performances worthy of The Undertaker before officially bowing out.
