#1 Four-time WWE Champion The Undertaker
The Undertaker is another WWE legend who had a hard time calling it a day. It looked as though he had retired after facing Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 33, but that match turned out to be a fiasco. The Deadman was determined only to retire after a satisfactory performance.
He tried several more times before striking gold with the Boneyard match against AJ Styles, which turned out to be the best of a few cinematic matches produced during the pandemic. The Undertaker finally called time on his career and announced his retirement at Survivor Series 2020.
During an interview with ET Online, he reaffirmed that he wouldn't return to the ring.
“My days in the WWE ring are done. It’s not because I don’t want to be in the ring and that is where I spent most of my adult life. My whole life really. More than half my life has been spent in the WWE ring. So in my mind, I can still see everything. In my heart, you know I want to be out there but it’s at a point where my body just can’t deliver and I don’t want to cheapen the legacy of that character. I’d hate for people to pay money to see me work and be disappointed,” said The Undertaker.
