#1 The Undertaker (WWE legend)

The Undertaker is arguably one of the greatest WWE Superstars of all time. Be it his legendary WrestleMania streak, chilling gimmick, and humbling personality, Superstars like The Undertaker truly come once in a generation.

What many fans might not remember is that there was a time in The Undertaker's career when he used to compete wearing a mask. The reason behind the same was a real-life injury that The Undertaker suffered during his feud with King Mabel that led to him wearing a mask to protect his face.

It was at Survivor Series 1995 where The Undertaker wrestled with the mask and defeated Mabel's team. Later, the Phenom again defeated King Mabel in a casket match. Later, at next year's Royal Rumble PPV, Bret Hart removed the mask from his face.

The Undertaker's last appearance for WWE took place at this year's WrestleMania in a Boneyard Match against AJ Styles. Soon after that, WWE Network started airing a docuseries "Undertaker: The Last Ride" that saw the Phenom break kayfabe and give the fans a peek into his life outside of the gimmick.

On the final episode of the highly-praised docuseries, The Undertaker seemingly announced his retirement from WWE, albeit ending it with "Never say Never". It is to be seen whether The Undertaker would ever return or not, but given that The Phenom is still listed as a current Superstar on WWE's website, there's a chance we will see him return one last time.
