Published on

WWE legend discusses staying retired, storytelling in wrestling, and why he avoids social media


Summary

– The Undertaker remains firm in his decision to stay retired despite temptations to return

– He believes storytelling and character work are the most important aspects of wrestling

– Social media and online opinions have little impact on his perspective of the business

The Undertaker has embraced his post-wrestling role as a media personality, appearing regularly on his podcast and upcoming A&E programming. He has no plans to return to the ring, emphasizing that he does not want to tarnish his legacy by performing past his prime. While he admits to moments of temptation, he remains committed to letting his in-ring career rest.

He highlighted the importance of character work and storytelling in wrestling, noting that athleticism alone does not create legends. He praised current stars like Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, and Gunther for their ability to connect with fans but believes younger talent needs to focus more on evoking emotion rather than just executing moves.

The Undertaker made it clear on social media that he has little regard for online criticism and fantasy booking. He believes many fans feel too entitled to shaping the product, pointing to the backlash over CM Punk’s Royal Rumble loss as an example. He advised fans to enjoy the ride rather than trying to dictate the show’s direction.

As he continues his media work, The Undertaker remains one of wrestling’s most respected voices, offering insight into the evolution of the business while staying true to his old-school mentality.
