The tears of the WWE Universe were flowing tonight as one, if not the, all-time greatest superstar to ever step inside a WWE ring called it a career. In a moment that will forever go down in WWE lore, The Undertaker laid rest to all speculation when he stood in the center of the ring and laid down his signature cloak, hat and gloves at WrestleMania, the event that had so wonderfully defined his career.
 
While losing to Roman Reigns was expected by many, seeing Undertaker actually take one last walk up the ramp left us all feeling crushed. Sure, we knew his time was coming, but after 27 years, having The Undertaker back for WrestleMania for the better part of our lives made us think that it was possible the Deadman might actually be immortal.
 
The retirement should do wonders for Roman Reigns’ career as he will always be able to say he was the one to finally end The Undertaker’s career; a boast even greater than beating the streak.
 
But what it does for Roman does nothing for us right now as we mourn the loss of a WWE Superstar who has been a constant through most of our lives.
