The Undertaker, one of the most popular and well-loved characters in the history of professional wrestling, has announced his retirement after spending almost 30 years with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).

Mark Calaway, in real life who began his professional wrestling career in 1987, confirmed during the final episode of his docuseries “Undertaker: The Last Ride” that he was done with wrestling and contented of not stepping in the ring again.

 “Never say never, but at this point in my life and in my career, I have no desire to get back in the ring. I’m at a point, it’s time this cowboy really rides away,” Calaway said during the fifth and final episode of the docuseries. “There’s nothing left for me to conquer. There’s nothing left for me to accomplish. The game has changed. It’s time for new guys to come up. The time just seems right. I think this documentary has helped me discover that. It’s really opened my eyes to the bigger picture.” he added.

However, the 55-year old wrestler teases the fans for a possible return.

“If there was ever a perfect ending to a career, that right there was it. If [WWE Chairman] Vince [McMahon] was in a pinch, would I come back? I guess time will only tell there. In case of emergency, break glass, you pull out The Undertaker. I would have to consider that,” he said.
