You want to keep him around. There are few names in wrestling history on the level of the Undertaker. He is someone who has been around for decades now and that is something you just can’t replicate. Undertaker has been around for so long and is such a legend that it is almost impossible to imagine WWE without him. As it turns out, we might not have to deal with that for a long time to come.

Undertaker debuted in WWE back at the 1990 Survivor Series and while he has slowed down, he has never gone away. Even during the Attitude Era when everyone was moving from one company to the other, Undertaker was never someone who ever seemed close to considering making the jump. Undertaker is a WWE guy for live, and it turns out that might be almost literal.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Undertaker’s current WWE contract is in essence a lifetime deal. The deal was signed last year and runs for fifteen years, meaning that it will not expire until 2033 when Undertaker is 69 years old. WWE signed him to a new deal as a result of Undertaker taking various outside bookings which WWE did not like. There is no word on if Undertaker will be able to take such outside bookings once his in-ring career is over.

What else can be said about Undertaker? Check out some of Undertaker’s career:

Opinion: I’m not sure how much longer we are going to have the Undertaker around but it is going to be a big deal when he is finally gone. Undertaker is someone who you cannot recreate and WWE would be crazy to surprise. He is one of the biggest stars of all time and someone who will be missed more than almost anyone else. I’m glad WWE is taking care of him for so long though, because he has certainly earned it.
