The 55-year-old observed ring-walk with his usual songs of the dead before making into the ring for one last time.

He then talked to the WWE universe watching from home at the ThunderDome:

"For 30 long years, I've made that slow walk to this ring and have laid people to rest time and time again,"
"Now, my time has come. My time has come to let The Undertaker rest... in... peace."

WWE legends including Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, Kane, Mike Foley, Shane McMahon, Big Show, JBL Jeff Hardy among others were present to congratulate him.

WWE Chairman Vince McMahon was also present to pay respect to arguably his greatest creation in the business.

"Thirty years. Thirty long, arduous years. That's three decades!"
"Three decades this man, not withstand his injuries and hardships he's endured and stricken fear in the hearts of, if not, terror in the hearts of almost everyone he faced here in the ring.
"At the same time he entertained the global audience. Be it WWF or, of course, WWE Universe currently.
"Tonight marks an end of an era. End of an era of a long, storied career. It has to never be duplicated. So tonight, we say, we say goodbye.
"They say nothing lasts forever. I think they're wrong, because the legacy of The Undertaker will live on eternally!"
