Rumor has it that the recently concluded WrestleMania was The Undertaker's last. During the rumble, the wrestler went through a great deal of pain after taking a spear from Reigns. The crowd at the WrestleMania 33 saw how The Undertaker took Reigns' superman punches while being pinned on a table. Over the past several weeks, he was also seen walking with a slight limp. Last year, images of the wrestling legend walking around on crutches also surfaced.
In the latest episode of "Wrestling Observer Radio," Dave Meltzer reported that The Undertaker is "getting more surgeries" soon and noted that he had already held off for long enough on his hip surgery. The doctors already advised him that if he chooses to undergo surgery, he will have to end his time in the ring due to the nature of the surgery and considering his age.
The Undertaker debuted in 1990 and has wrestled for the WWE for the last 27 years.
