The Undertaker

The Undertaker is one of the best grapplers ever to grace the ring and has been the symbol of the industry as well. The Phenom has been a star-studded name in the wrestling world for over thirty years (33 years) and has been one of the top grapplers in history. The Deadman is a fan-favorite for his horrifying character, mind games, Deadman gimmick, undefeated streak, supernatural powers, and engaging storylines. The Demon of Death Valley is one of the toughest grapplers to be defeated, particularly in WrestleMania. Taker's WrestleMania streak is quite possibly one of the most unbelievable and notable achievements in the sports and entertainment world.

Every year, fans anxiously expected The Undertaker's appearance at the WrestleMania match to witness him beat impressive and unbelievable opponents with his unrivaled predominance. Probably the greatest names in proficient wrestling history tried to make a pass at his flawless record at WrestleMania and flopped in stunning contests. The Last Outlaw kept an undefeated streak for a long time, from WrestleMania VII in 1991 to WrestleMania XXX in 2014. He holds a phenomenal record of 21 back-to-back victories at the "Grandest Stage of Them All". However, his streak was first broken in 2014 against Brock Lesnar and again in 2017 against Roman Reigns. The Demon of Death Valley had 27 matches at WrestleMania, with 25 wins and two losses.

The Undertaker’s Defeat At Wrestlemania 33

The Undertaker lost to Roman Reigns in the main event of WrestleMania 33 in 2017 in a No Holds Barred match, which fans also called the "Passing the Torch" match. During the match, The Undertaker tossed Reigns into the steel steps and executed a Chokeslam on him onto the announce table. Reigns then delivered a Spear to The Undertaker through another announce table. The Undertaker performed a Last Ride on Reigns for a close fall. Reigns responded with back-to-back Superman Punches. The Undertaker grabbed a chair and executed a Chokeslam onto it for another near fall.

Soon after, The Undertaker played out a Tombstone Piledriver on Reigns for another near-fall. Reigns countered it with a Superman Punch, leading to another near-fall as The Undertaker attempted a second Tombstone Piledriver. Reigns delivered another Spear; however, The Undertaker applied his trademark submission, Hell's Gate, which Reigns broke to escape. As Reigns survived Taker's submission move, he attacked him with a similar chair and executed consecutive Spears, resulting in near-falls. The Undertaker attempted his trademark sit-up but collapsed, signaling the end was near. One final Spear sealed the win, making Reigns only the second man to defeat The Undertaker at WrestleMania, three years after Brock Lesnar ended The Streak at WrestleMania XXX.

While it was not confirmed officially, the WWE online store delivered a dedicatory photograph plaque of the Undertaker's stuff that he left in the ring, with the depiction expressing that he had finished his career. However, the Undertaker appeared for a match at WrestleMania the next year and beat John Cena at WrestleMania 34.
