The final clip of The Undertaker's 'Last Ride: Chapter One' documentary on the Network shows the legend re-watching parts of his match against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 33. Upon seeing the botched Tombstone reversal spot from Orlando, 'Taker turned his head in disgust and embarrassment.

That was not the final match he wanted to have.

Physically, 'Taker was struggling to keep up with Reigns in-ring. Mentally, he'd already dismissed the thought of doing so when the pair came face-to-face at the 2017 Royal Rumble. The once mighty 'Deadman' was a shell of his former self and didn't truly believe he was capable of having the match he wanted fans to see.

Seeing his affront when looking back on what was genuinely teased as his last hurrah is fascinating for long time fans. It's also pretty depressing, and shows that 'Taker still has high standards his body maybe can't match anymore.
