After his final match against AJ Styles at WrestleMania 36 and induction into the WWE Hall of Fame, The Undertaker officially retired from wrestling. Despite occasional appearances, he has struggled with being away from the ring. In a Patreon Q&A, he confessed that the transition to retirement has been challenging, revealing that he even considered a WWE comeback, a notion he ultimately talked himself out of.

Despite his retirement, The Undertaker remains involved in WWE, attending events like Elimination Chamber and the Royal Rumble. He continues to engage with fans through his 1Deadman Shows and backstage appearances at various shows.
