Television show Good Morning Britain went completely dark due to a surprise visit by The Undertaker. The appearance marked Taker’s “Final Farewell” from active professional wrestling.
The Undertaker’s Surprise Appearance On Good Morning Britain
Survivor Series will mark the end of The Undertaker’s career. Good Morning Britain interviewed Taker via zoom.
The Undertaker did a zoom call from his home in Texas and discussed many topics. Throughout the interview with Good Morning Britain, it is clear Taker would prefer to wrestle forever.
The @undertaker might reconsider his final farewell to wrestling for one man only…

Kate and Richard, the presenters of the show, were amused by the certain blackout announcing the arrival of Taker. They also took the opportunity to make a joke.
“That’s the best lighting for us, Kate, on this show ever at this point in our career, isn’t it?”
During the interview, The Undertaker stated that it will be easier to retire with a virtual audience. In fact, he stated it might prevent him from bursting into tears.
“Our audience being on monitors, I think I’ll be able to get through it a little easier that way than if I had to actually look out into an ocean of people and make eye contact.”
Coming Out Of Retirement For Piers Morgan
The Undertaker mentioned he would happily come out of retirement for Piers Morgan. If you are not familiar with him, he is a British television presenter and personality.
Piers is quite known for his controversial statements. So, we are not surprised Taker chose Piers as a retirement defying opponent!
Aside from Taker’s final farewell, the wrestler mentioned some other opponents he would not mind coming out of retirement for to meet in the ring.
Taker also admitted that there is another man who could force him out of that retirement. That man is none other than Vince McMahon.
We know from past events that Undertaker would do a lot for Vince McMahon. So even though this is Taker’s “Final Farewell,” I would not bet the farm that we will never see him again.
Even The Phenom admitted as such during his interview with Good Morning Britain.
“In my mind, I am 100% done. But there’s this guy that lives up in Stamford, Connecticut, who lives by the motto, ‘never say never.’”
WWE Superstars Pay Tribute
Various WWE superstars paid tribute to The Phenom on social media this week. Almost every superstar got dressed up in Deadman gear.
Here were some of our favorites of the week!
Banks brought a mixture of The American Badass and The Deadman, wearing his iconic gloves.
Hardy represented a pensive Deadman. One of the more serious photographs, but capturing the early Undertaker beautifully.
In conclusion, it is time to treasure the moments we have left with Taker in the ring. While Mark has attempted to retire before, this moment feels more final.
Of course, never say never with The Undertaker. His character, much like the man, is iconic!
I cannot wait to see what the future holds for Mark. But whatever it is, I am sure it will be great.
