10 Things We Learned From WWE’s Undertaker: The Last Ride (Chapter One)

1. What's On The Next Episode

The Undertaker Roman Reigns WrestleMania 33
WWE Network

Whilst chapter one ends on a fairly happy note ('Taker thinks he has retired, his wife is happy, Vince McMahon is content and he can ride off into the sunset), there's obviously more twists and turns to come from this series. At the end of the debut episode, 'Taker is shown cringing as he watches footage of 'Mania 33 back with wife Michelle McCool.

He was left severely disappointed by what was supposed to be his final bow.

Chapter two will include more of an in-depth look at that annoyance, as well as building towards what The Undertaker referred to as achieving "redemption" by entering a much slicker performance in his next match. For reference, his follow-up match after Reigns was at 2018's WrestleMania 34 against John Cena.

Honestly, it cannot be emphasised enough how essential this documentary is for any WWE fan. If you've been watching for years, then you'll see a fresh side to someone who has kept a lid on reality for generations. If you're new, then you'll see justification for why 'Taker sometimes isn't the performer he's presented as on TV.
