10 Early Wrestling Predictions For 2022
5. The Undertaker Comes Out Retirement
How has this not happened already?
The Undertaker is one of the most enduring icons in not only professional wrestling, but in mainstream pop culture in general. The fact that this legend of the industry got his send-off in front of a bunch of screens at Survivor Series 2020 doesn't sit well with this writer.
From The Last Ride documentary series, we saw that The Undertaker was chasing this one dream match. A match that would top his career and leave both him and the audiences satisfied. While the Boneyard match certainly was a fitting end for The Deadman, it feels like he might think he has more in the tank.
Maybe it's because The Undertaker has constantly teased retirement over the past 10 years, so few of us buy the Survivor Series nonsense as a genuine farewell. The Undertaker must retire in front of a crowd, maybe even his hometown. Hopefully it will be a fitting end to The Phenom's incredible legacy.
