A video package also aired that saw Triple H, Shane, WWE Hall of Famer Steve Austin, and John Cena speaking about The Phenom.
WWE Chairman and CEO was then introduced by Mike Rome. He said how The Undertaker’s career cannot be duplicated and he had entertained the global audience all along starting from WWF to WWE. Vince said that The Phenom’s legacy will live on eternally. He then introduced the man himself.
The Deadman made his slow and ecstatic entrance to the ring for maybe the final time in his career. The surreal experience certainly drove the fans emotionally at their homes.

He said, “For 30 long years I’ve made that slow walk to this ring and have laid people to rest time and time again. And now my time has come. My time has come to let The Undertaker rest in peace.”

After the heartfelt speech, he did his signature pose, getting on one knee. A graphic of the late Paul Bearer appeared on the titantron, holding up the urn. He did another of his signature pose of cutting his own throat amid the thunder and lighting.
He then walked up to the ramp and turned around to give his fierce look to the squared circle and raised his fist. He then continued his walk to the back.
The Undertaker would not only be considered as one of the greatest wrestlers to step foot in the ring but also possessing a great gimmick and amazing mic skills that none can ever match.
